Avon, OH – The Lorain County Leviathon FC has officially launched its youth program for the 2026 inaugural season.
The club shares infrastructure with the Lake Erie Crushers (Frontier League Adult Baseball); their summer offerings are integrated into a broader “Summer of Sports” at Forefront Field in Avon, Ohio.
The Leviathan youth soccer camp is hosting several “Skill & Drill” sessions throughout the summer, focusing on their “Pathway to Pro” mission.
Primary camp windows are from Mid – June through late July at Forefront Field (the main stadium turf), and the adjacent training grounds in Avon.
The instruction is led by Head Coach Blake New and featuring current Leviathan players (like stars Nolan Spicer and Espoir Mayela).
Participants will learn technical ball handling, small-sided games, and “Monster” goalkeeper clinics as part of the “Curriculum.”
The “Summer Camp Day” at Forefront Field. The Leviathan Club has partnered with the Lake Erie Crushers for a massive community event.
The event is designated “Summer Camp Day,” during which local youth organizations and camp groups are invited to the stadium for a day of multipurpose activities, including an exhibition by the Leviathan and a Crushers Baseball game.
The Cleveland Crunch will also host a 2-day intensive session at Lorain County Community College on July 25-26 (ages 4-17).
North FC Summer sessions are running full-day and half-day camps at T3 Performance in Avon during the weeks of June 22 and July 27.
Registration for the Leviathans’ clinics is handled on the Lorain County Leviathan FC website, under the “youth” tab.
