Chili Soccer Association

About the Club

Chili Soccer Association (CSA) is a youth soccer organization based in Chili, New York, serving the greater Rochester area. As Rochester's original soccer club and one of New York's oldest, CSA operates as a not-for-profit volunteer organization dedicated to promoting the game of soccer in a fun and developmental environment. The club provides recreational and competitive programs for boys and girls starting from age 5. Their Tykes program targets 5- and 6-year-olds in a non-competitive format focused on building motivation and basic skills. CSA offers house league teams for recreational play, alongside travel and elite travel teams for more advanced players. The U8 Travel Academy introduces younger players to competitive soccer through structured training and matches. CSA distinguishes itself by hosting two annual youth soccer tournaments at Davis Park, including the Chili Invitational Tournament, fostering regional competition. Teams participate in leagues affiliated with the Rochester District Youth Soccer League (RDYSL) and the NYS West Youth Soccer Association. The club emphasizes parent involvement and community engagement through events like the annual CSA Night Out. CSA supports player development through seasonal programs, including small-sided games for beginners and advanced travel options for skill progression.
