Maine Lightning Soccer strives to produce a family-friendly environment in which all players can learn, develop, compete, and have fun. 

  • We offer a multi-sport club for both multi-sport athletes & singularly focused athletes
  • We have a proven staff of experienced teacher/coaches who will focus on player development
  • We support  town travel  and  families will aim to minimize   travel, especially before high school
  • We will offer training at multiple levels of  athletes five to eighteen & have access to Edge Academy opportunities, including SAQ training, strength training, college counseling & connections, & more!

        An overview of MLS programming:
