About the Erie Soccer League

The Erie Soccer League is a sanctioned adult amateur soccer league that is set up for current adult soccer players and run by current soccer players. Our outdoor 11v11 men’s league is sanctioned through PA West Adult and the United States Adult Soccer Association. League play can take place at a variety of fields throughout the Erie area. Our league is a not for profit venture and the main goal of the league is to directly better the local soccer community.

From April to November, we run full sided (11v11) competitive level (sanctioned) adult men’s leagues and small-sided demographic specific coed, men’s, and women’s adult soccer leagues. From November to March, we run small sided indoor adult soccer leagues at the Erie Bank Sports Park Soccer Dome in Erie, PA, as this is the only venue in the Erie area capable of supporting something close to full field play.
