ABOUT THE COSMOS SOCCER CLUB

Mission Statement

The Lethbridge Cosmos club is a non-profit organization dedicated to providing competitive, educational soccer opportunities  to youth players. Our goal is to offer challenging soccer, and provide progression through competitive programs to provincial and national competitions, in doing so developing their skills, sportsmanship, respect and personal enjoyment in a team setting.

Who runs the Cosmos?

The Cosmos Club is affiliated with and sanctioned by the Lethbridge Soccer Association who are members of the Alberta Soccer Association. The Cosmos Club operates under it’s own constitution which requires annual meetings and election of officers. The Club appoints team coaches who in turn select a team representative who attends Cosmos Board meetings.

Players

In participating in the development program, players are required to show a strong dedication to soccer and a strong desire to develop soccer skills. 

Players can expect two practices and one game per week. Each team is expected to participate in three out of town tournaments as well as regional and provincial competitions. Players should attend all games and practices.

The development program promotes citizenship growth with a strong emphasis on education and healthy social behavior. Each team will function under a consistent set of rules and obligations. The goal is to be part of the organization, not just part of one team.
