Organized League Play
Competitive Rosters
LA Municipal League: We field 5 teams to compete in our local LA County league. The two seasons – spring and fall – play every Sunday while in-season for about 10-12 weeks in facilities all throughout LA. We host try-outs prior to each season for interested players.
Social & Recreational Rosters
We typically field two to four teams (13 players each) that compete on weeknights. Rosters are filled to accommodate any and all interested players.

Yes! While we were founded as a soccer club, WHSC has grown to become an active member in our local LGBTQ+ community. We volunteer, host LAFC, ACFC USWNT, USMNT watch parties, club socials, and fundraisers throughout the year. We welcome friends of the club to join us in all of our activities!
