Why Choose Colorado EDGE?

With more than 50 years of serving families in the Arvada community, Colorado EDGE offers a soccer experience that balances development, fun, and community. Families love the focus on sportsmanship, the experienced coaching staff, and the opportunity to grow with the club across all age levels.

Soccer is more than just a sport, it’s a foundation for a healthy lifestyle. Regular physical activity helps children build strong bones and muscles, improve coordination, and develop endurance. But the benefits go far beyond the physical.

Playing soccer can reduce stress, improve mood, and boost self esteem. At EDGE, kids learn how to cope with challenges, bounce back from setbacks, and feel pride in their accomplishments, both on and off the field.

EDGE’s programs are designed not just to teach soccer, but to help kids grow as individuals. Through teamwork, effort, and leadership opportunities, young athletes develop a sense of responsibility, perseverance, and confidence. Coaches focus on personal development and positive reinforcement, helping children believe in themselves and their abilities.

One of the greatest gifts youth sports can give is the friendships that come with it. At Colorado EDGE, kids form strong connections with teammates that often turn into lifelong bonds. They learn how to communicate, work together, and support each other, all valuable skills that carry over into school, relationships, and life.

Choosing Colorado EDGE means giving your child more than just a place to play soccer. It’s choosing a safe, positive, and enriching space where they can be active, make friends, build confidence, and have FUN.

Whether your child is chasing their first goal or dreaming of college soccer, Colorado EDGE has a place for them.
