West Elk Soccer Association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization devoted to promoting and fostering the development of soccer for youth living in and visiting the Gunnison valley. We are dedicated to providing our participants with a fun, high-quality soccer experience that encourages sportsmanship and a love of the game through the development of the player, coach, referee, and team. We are committed to being a leader in player development and establishing a lifelong appreciation for soccer among our participants.

WESA is the sole provider of competitive soccer programming in Crested Butte. We are the developmental bridge between introductory, rudimentary, recreational soccer offered by Crested Butte and our Crested Butte high school teams. In eight years, we have grown our program participants to over 200 players and provide year-round training (ages 8-18), including programs for preschool children (ages 3-5). 30% of the Crested Butte Community School participates in our soccer programming. We have achieved success by keeping soccer fun, raising the level of coaching, and better matching player ability with proper competition level. We have realized success by the Crested Butte Titans High School Boys being three-time Colorado 2A State Champions and the Crested Butte Titans High School Girls securing a second-place finish in the 2022 Colorado 2A State Finals. 

We are proud of how quickly we have grown and look forward to a bright future.

Our continued success depends on sponsors like YOU to help us provide quality programming at an affordable price. Your  sponsorship will also help us with:

  • Improved Programming
  • Equipment
  • Field/Gym Rentals
  • Coach Development
  • Referee Development
  • Program Registration Assistance

We invite you to join us in meeting the needs of the rapidly growing youth soccer population in the Gunnison Valley.

All donations are tax-deductible as West Elk Soccer Association is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
