A Strategic Partnership with Leahi Soccer Club in Hawaii
Legends FC is excited to announce we have formed a strategic partnership with Leahi Soccer Club in Hawaii. Leahi Soccer Club who is celebrating their 40th Anniversary this year prides themselves on having built a network of people who are dedicated to supporting one another in an environment of care and respect. Their long history of success includes local, regional and national successes as well as placing more players in collegiate programs across the country than any other club in Hawaii.
With this partnership, Legends will enhance experiences for our players and coaches through player exchanges, team hosting, coaching collaboration, and expansion of programming to Hawaii. Leahi SC will have access to Legends National pathways for Leahi players, guest playing opportunities, player and team hosting, entry to our College Showcases and ID Camps, and coaching education support.

“Legends is thrilled to join forces with Leahi Soccer Club in this strategic partnership. Leahi SC has a tremendous history and is recognized as one of the top clubs in Hawaii." states Legends Executive Director Josh Hodges. "With Leahi recently adding a boys program this is perfect timing to partner with our growing boys program and the expansion of our Boys ECNL National platform. Through collaboration with a like minded organization, this partnership will create increased opportunities for our players, coaches, and families.”
“Legends FC is one of the fastest growing, most progressive clubs in the country. Their commitment to coach and player development in a positive playing and learning environment is something we have long respected about the club states. Most importantly, Legends’ “One Club, One Family, One Mission” statement mirrors Leahi’s philosophy of developing talented soccer players - who are even better people - in a competitive environment of care and respect. It was important to us to find a partner that valued Leahi’s storied history and we look forward to working closely with Legends on this partnership”
After adding Legends Arizona, this continues to expand our commitment to youth development outside of California and now Hawaii. This is an exciting time for Legends FC; we look forward to working with good people and continuing to grow the game of soccer.
Our family centered approach, backed with a national level program and elite level coaching, provides a positive playing and learning environment that fosters long term player development and personal growth. Thousands of players have benefited greatly from their exposure to the Legends program with many playing at the highest level of collegiate and professional competition, and many more leading very successful business and personal lives.The club has experienced exponential growth across Southern California since its founding in 2007, and that growth takes a major step forward with the expansion of Legends Temecula Valley.
