In the fall of 2007, L.A.C.E.S. began its first soccer league in an urban community of Monrovia, Liberia, called Matadi. As the Matadi league continued to develop and grow, an opportunity came about to expand LACES and start a new league in a rural village in the interior of Liberia called Konia. Soon after the commencement of the Konia league in the Spring of 2008, plans to start a league in another urban community in Monrovia began to develop. Then in the Fall of 2008, these plans became a reality, and a third L.A.C.E.S. league was established in the DuPort Road community of the city. Now in the midst of 2009, L.A.C.E.S. is proud to watch a committed and capable Liberian staff manage the leagues overseas as we explore new opportunities to expand in the U.S. |
