About Lakes Area Youth Soccer Association (LAYSA)

The mission of LAYSA is to foster, promote and perpetuate the game of soccer for youth in the surrounding community of Brainerd/Baxter.   We offer both a tournament travel program and a community summer recreational program.  LAYSA is the name of our non-profit organization.  Our teams compete/play under the name Brainerd BLAST.

We are proud to serve our members from communities of Central Minnesota. 
Brainerd • Baxter • Pillager • Nisswa • Pequot Lakes • Crosslake • Crosby • Ironton • Deerwood • Little Falls

Stay tuned for more information regarding our Parent Meeting and Team Meetings to kick off our 2021 summer season!

Spring Tournament Opportunities

Mark your calendars for the 12th Annual Indoor Icebreaker Tournament hosted by Brainerd Blast and the 5th Annual Outdoor Ground Hog Tournament hosted by Bemidji Youth Soccer.

It is through the generosity and partnership of our sponsors that we are able to offer the best value for our members.   Even though we are a volunteer based, nonprofit organization, this would not be possible without them. 

Thank you Sponsors!
