We will provide your children with a fun and energetic environment to learn the basics of soccer. COSA provides beginning instructional programs (i.e. Tiny Tots) and youth recreational leagues. In addition, if your child excels and desires more Advanced Training then they can join our Club Program - COSA Team Ohio.

Our season runs in the Spring and Fall. The Spring season runs from April to May and the Fall season runs from August to October. Field locations are on the north side of Columbus at Cooper Park in Westerville, which is supplied by Columbus Recreation & Parks.

COSA is a proud host of The Annual Jarosi/Willis Memorial Cup, COSA Fall Classic, as well as a High School Tournament supporting the growth of our local highschools. We also sponsor various camps, coaching and referee clinics throughout the year.

Two central-Ohio high school senior soccer players have been selected from among more than 70 applicants in the awarding of a $1000 college scholarship through the Jarosi/Willis Memorial Soccer Scholarship fund, a program administered by the Central Ohio Soccer Association (COSA).

The female winner is Andrea Karl of Olentangy Liberty High School, daughter of Dennis and Joyce Karl who plans on attending Denison University.  The male recipient is Timothy Alford of Fairfield Union High School, son of Paul and Evangeline Alford, who will attend Ohio Wesleyan University.

Scholarship awards were based on academic and athletic excellence, high school and community involvement, recommendations from high school administrators, and a personal essay.
