The Central Virginia Soccer Association (CVSA) is a non-profit, adult soccer league headquartered in Richmond, Virginia. Games are played at various sites in the city of Richmond, as well as Hanover, Henrico & Chesterfield Counties. The league is currently in its 46th year of operation, having started play in the Fall of 1975, and is the oldest and most competitive in the Richmond Metropolitan Area. The CVSA is sanctioned by the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and the United States Adult Soccer Association (USASA) through its membership in the Metro D.

The CVSA hosted the MDCVSA State Championships at the Bryan Park Soccer Complex from 2000-2005, as well as the latest 2019 edition in December, and continues to be an integral part of the maintenance and development of that facility, having provided over half of the funds to build the facility, which opened 22 years ago in April 1999.

FALL '21

11-A-SIDE RETURNS! 12 months after the completion of the 2019-'20 CVSA Cup & Copa Bruce, 11-a-side play returned to the CVSA. Since the aborted Spring '20 season closed in March 2020, the CVSA had been 7-a-side to accomodate the virus. All of that is past us, and the Fall '21 season came back strong, with 92 teams spread across eight open divisions, two coed divisions, and the Veterans Division.

Sporting 804 - Fall '21 Premier Division Champions


The more things change, the more they stay the same. Sporting 804, undefeated and untied, took their sixth consecutive Fall Premier Division title. Like the weather, everyone complains, but nobody ever does anything about it.

Richmond City FC, on the prowl for their first CVSA major title, laid waste to the First Division with a another undfeated & untied season, and a 34:2 goal differential. Richmond FC returned from a sabbatical in the Southside during virustime, and subdued Lightning FC in a winner-take-all championship match on the last day of the regular season.

In the Third Division, the title is vacated. The presumed divisional champions were found to have used unregistered members of the VCU Men's Soccer team, using fake ID's at gametime, and forfeited their final regular season game, as well as their Round of 16 CVSA Cup match.

The Fourth Division went to the Legend of Ivory Stripes FC, and the Fifth Division was won by Top of the Tabol FC. Wiseguys FC took the Sixth Division, and Home FC Home snagged the Seventh Division, both teams finishing with perfect 8-0-0 records.

In the Coed Division, the Murtaughs continued their summer dominance of the division, finishing 10-0-0, with a 75:1 goal differential, leaving this division on life support from a competitive standpoint. Balls 'N Dolls took the Coed Recreational Division by a game in a rare competitive session for the Coeds.

In the Veterans Division, the Screaming Eagles Masters returned the top of the division, reclaiming the title they lost in the spring from Strongs Old School.

SUMMER '21

A RETURN TO NORMAL.

Sporting 804 MW - Summer '21 Premier Division Champions

Sporting 804 TT silenced any doubters to the club's absolute rule by taking First Division, besting previously undefeated Richmond City FC in a shootout after a scoreless championship final. Richmond Celtic FC won the Second Division, showing that someone besides 804 can win a championship in this league, and finished with an impressive 11-0-1 record. Cardinal FC - Grove matched Celtic's 11-0-1 record to take Third Division with a 4:2 win over RCFC Clasico in the final.

Underdog Fat Dragon FC took the Fourth Division the hard way. Coming is as the #5 seed, they defeated the #4, #1, and #2 seeds to take the final in a penalty shootout againt Bean FC.

Brambly Park FC ran the table to take the First Division. LOKO took the Second Division, finishing four points clear of the field, as this once proflific club showed that they're still a factor. Mamma Zû netted a last-minute goal to win the Third Division in the last game of the season.

West Creek FC took the Fourth Division with a perfect record. Rounding out the open divisions, PLPFC & PLPFC 2 took the Fifth & Sixth Divisions, respectively, giving the folks at Penny Lane Pub something to cheer about.

2020-'21 CVSA CUP & COPA BRUCE

We just couldn't pull it off . . .

While the 2019-'20 CVSA Cup and Copa Bruce were able to be completed through the torrent of coronavirus, the 2020-'21 edition could not do the same. With the Fall '20 & Spring '21 seasons being conducted as 7-a-side competitions, there was no need for another 7-a-side tournament, which would only mimic what we have been doing for years in our summer competitions. Thus, the decision is made to cancel the 2020-'21 CVSA Cup and Copa Bruce, and pick up the pieces for the 2021-'22 session come September.

Look for the first draw in September 2021 at Kitchen 64. We can't wait

The CVSA Cup page is updated to reflect the cancellation.
