"Learn, Play, Celebrate!"
In spring 2020, the Delaware Union Soccer Club joined forces with Kent County Parks and Recreation to establish the Kent Youth Soccer League (KYSL) in Dover. The KYSL aims to enhance opportunities for young recreational soccer players in Kent County. Operated entirely by Kent County Park and Recreation, this program provides various levels of play for youth aged 4 to 18. Participants can develop their soccer skills, engage in team training, and enjoy organized games. Questions? Email: KYSL@kentcountyde.gov.
