Guided by its purpose—to improve lives through soccer—the organization serves as a leader in providing structured play, education, and development opportunities for both youth and adult participants.
At its core, Indiana Soccer’s mission is to remain a premier service organization by delivering leadership, organizing competition, educating stakeholders, and fostering player development at every level. Its vision—to make soccer accessible to all—drives a commitment to inclusivity and opportunity, ensuring that individuals from all backgrounds can participate in and benefit from the sport.
The organization’s work is rooted in strong core values: Diversity & Inclusion, Integrity & Respect, Fair & Safe Play, and Leadership & Service. These principles guide decision-making, shape relationships with members, and reinforce a culture centered on growth, respect, and community impact.
Indiana Soccer is affiliated with key national governing bodies, including the United States Soccer Federation (USSF), United States Youth Soccer (USYS), United States Adult Soccer Association (USASA), and United States Futsal Association (USFF). As a nonprofit Indiana corporation, it supports charitable contributions and reinvests in programming that benefits its members.
With a robust network of more than 125 local clubs, Indiana Soccer serves over 63,000 youth players, 2,000 adult players, 8,000 coaches, 2,000 referees, and thousands of volunteers statewide.

Between 2015 to 2025, Indiana Soccer Association has built, repurposed, or otherwise inspired 20 futsal courts across the state. All the courts are free to use, based in public parks or schools, and available to anyone to walk on and play at any time. The program was inspired by a belief that soccer in Indiana has seen the limitations surrounding formal, structured ways to grow the game. What they felt was needed to take the next step is what you find in all other soccer-loving countries – access, at scale, to public spaces where you can play the beautiful game for free.
