The BSL is Southwest Michigan's Premier Adult Soccer league. We have players aged from 15 years to over 60 of all abilities playing on teams from SW Michigan and Northern Indiana.
We are a co-ed league with many women playing among our ranks. Our talent levels range from 'weekend warriors' to high school to NCAA college to retired national players from many countries. Most simply love the game and want to participate. Many do it for the exercise and social aspect but everyone enjoys getting out for the love of soccer. Some have grown up with the sport while others have joined the sport later in life.
While winter tries to hold on, Spring is coming. The grass is starting to green up and a few flowers are popping up. With it we're all anxious to get back outdoors and kick the ball around.
We have 12 teams this season, including our newest Indiana United. Player registrations are underway with the first games of the year slated for early May.
We have two divisions this year, both with 6 teams. They will play a regular 10 game season running through July 16. After that the top four teams will enter the BSL Cup tournament with semi-final games scheduled for July 23 and the finals on July 30 at the St. Joe Kickers Sport Club.
Keep Kickin'
Player registration is underway and will continue until June 1.

The league will receive $80 of each player fee. This allows the league to pay MSA their portion which provides both a supplemental participant insurance and covers each field with liability insurance for the owners. The league also pays our USSF certified referees, provide end of season awards, and other league expenses during the season / year.
The remaining portion of the player fees provides funds for each team to have uniforms, field use and maintenance, and other team expenses.
