Welcome to Northern Lights Soccer Club
President - Bill Casey

Northern Lights Soccer Club was formed in 1985 and our mission is to provide quality recreational and competitive soccer programs for youth ages 4 to 19 in the communities of Andover, Anoka, Coon Rapids, Elk River, Ramsey and surrounding areas. Our soccer programs are affiliated and regulated by Minnesota Youth Soccer Association (MYSA), United States Youth Soccer (USYS) and we are a division of Anoka Ramsey Athletic Association.

We encourage you to check back often as we continue to add features to our website for both our recreational and traveling soccer programs.  On the left side of this page you will find links to the programs we offer as well as forms, documents and other information you may find helpful.  Visit the ARAA home page and you will find a calendar that has our current and future events.

If there are features that you would find helpful or information that you are looking for and you can’t find them here, please feel free to email the ARAA Soccer Commissioner by clicking on the "Soccer Committee" link on the left side of the page and then selecting the email address of the NLS President.

Current Weather Conditions
Weather Cancellation Policy
Updated 9/15/09
Recreational Soccer Weather Cancellation
Please keep our weather policy in mind throughout the season; the hotline number listed below will only be updated for weather if there is a change in policy or if weather cancellations occur. Rain-outs will be announced on this hotline by 5:30pm the day of the game. It is important to note that we will not cancel games/practices prior to the scheduled practice/game time due to weather unless it is obvious that the severe weather will interfere throughout the entire night. If there is not a hotline message canceling the scheduled game/practice, you should come to the fields because the weather is too questionable to predetermine cancellation. Please note that we do play in the rain but will cancel the games if the weather is severe.

ARAA Sports Hotline (763) 422-9555; Press 6 for Soccer, then Press 1 for Recreational Soccer
If there is not a current message you are to assume the games will be played as scheduled.


Traveling Soccer Weather Cancellation
All weather related game cancellations will be determined at the field prior to game time.
