Queens Youth Soccer in Your Neighborhood

Bayside Youth Soccer

Bayside

Auburndale Soccer Club has anchored youth soccer in Bayside for nearly fifty years. Bayside families make up the largest share of our roster — Travel, Intramural, and Summer Clinics all run with Bayside kids on the field every weekend. Fort Totten Park sits at the eastern edge of Bayside and is our main Premier Travel tryout venue.

Flushing Youth Soccer

Flushing

Flushing families have been part of Auburndale since the early days. Our co-ed Intramural league pulls heavily from Flushing schools, and many of our Premier Travel players come up through the Flushing youth soccer pipeline. We coordinate practice schedules to make field access realistic for Flushing parents.

Auburndale (the neighborhood)

We're named after the neighborhood — and the neighborhood made us. Auburndale families have built this club volunteer by volunteer since 1977. If you live in Auburndale, this is your home club. Every program runs within a few minutes of the neighborhood.

Whitestone parents drive into Auburndale Soccer Club because we offer the full youth soccer pathway — beginner Intramural, competitive Travel, summer clinics, and inclusive TOPSoccer programming. Whitestone is well-represented across every age group.

Fresh Meadows

Fresh Meadows families come to Auburndale for the long-term club experience. Our Travel program develops players from U-8 through U-16, and many Fresh Meadows kids stay with us all the way through high school prep.

Little Neck Youth Soccer

Little Neck

Little Neck players have a short drive to our practice and game venues. We've coached generations of Little Neck families through every level of youth soccer.

Douglaston Youth Soccer

Douglaston

Douglaston families round out our northeast Queens roster. The Auburndale community spans the LIE corridor from Bayside through Douglaston, and we work hard to make schedules predictable for families coming from any of these neighborhoods.
