About

Arkansas Soccer Club (ASC Fire) is a Central Arkansas youth soccer organization based in Little Rock that brands itself as home of the Fire. Since launching in fall 2003 as a recreational program with two competitive teams, the club has grown into a multi-tier pathway serving toddlers through teenage classic players across the Little Rock and North Little Rock metro.

Programs and levels

Families can move through developmental recreational soccer, an advanced academy track, and a competitive classic program that together field more than four hundred players today. ASC Fireflies classes, started in 2010, introduce ages one and a half through three with parent participation, obstacle courses, and size-three balls rather than cleats. Little Kickers and basic skills camps carry preschool and early elementary players into dribbling, small-sided attacking, and shooting games. The classic side draws on decades of Arkansas competitive experience, while seasonal goalkeeping academies, nationally licensed weekly skills sessions, and a summer three-v-three league add training layers beyond league weekends.

Where teams train and play

Most outdoor programming centers on sixteen soccer fields at Burns Park Soccer Complex in North Little Rock, maintained by North Little Rock Parks and Recreation. Summer camp also meets at D1 in West Little Rock (10 Viewpointe Cove, Little Rock, AR 72223), with a separate facility phone for that site. A field locator and rainout hotline help families confirm whether sessions run when weather threatens.

Summer camps and registration cadence

ASC typically opens summer camp registration with Saturday morning blocks at Burns Park and Sunday afternoon blocks at D1 West Little Rock. Recent camp offerings grouped Fireflies, Little Kickers (ages three and a half through four), basic skills for five- and six-year-olds, and a broader skills camp for ages seven through fourteen, each priced at about one hundred fifty dollars in the latest posted cycle. Registration windows list season dates in July and August with a stated deadline in early July; when an age band does not appear in the cart, families register for the nearest available group and contact staff to correct the roster age. Fall season planning references an age chart for the 2025/2026 cycle, and staff encourage texting or calling when signup menus are confusing.

Club leadership and scale

An executive board of club members oversees policy while a full-time club director and part-time staff handle daily operations. The club reports that more than fifty thousand players ages one and a half through eighteen have participated across its twenty-plus year history, reflecting its role as a long-running hub for introductory and advanced Arkansas youth soccer.
