Washington Local Soccer Club
Toledo
Washington Local Soccer Club has run a recreational program since 1996, serving children of the Washington Local School District as well as Point Place and Erie, Michigan, with no out-of-district fee. Games are played at Suder Field in Toledo (formerly Shoreland Field and Erme Field), six per team per season, on Saturday mornings; Fall 2026 ran September 12 to October 19. Recreational teams have no tryouts and are formed by volunteers to be as evenly matched as possible; head coaches must be at least 18, pass a background check, and complete an online concussion course. In Spring 2026 the club returned to travel soccer with one boys U-15 team in the Northwest Ohio Youth Soccer League, run through a separate partner organization, WLSC Travel Soccer, which the club refers interested families to rather than operating directly — there isn't enough public detail about that program to rate it separately here.

Coaching model
Recreational league run by volunteer coaches (minimum age 18, background check, online concussion course required); teams are formed rather than selected by tryout. A short, defined season (six games, roughly five to six weeks) runs each Spring and Fall. A separate partner entity, WLSC Travel Soccer, began fielding a boys U-15 NWOYSL team in Spring 2026 for families wanting to play beyond the recreational level.

No tryouts; teams are formed to be evenly matched, and open to Point Place and Erie, MI families as well as the school district.
