The Columbia Soccer Association (CSA) is a nonprofit organization that relies on volunteers and the support and generosity of sponsors. CSA originated in 1984 as the Maury County Soccer Association, Region 653 (AYSO). Less than 100 players competed on two fields off Trotwood Avenue. By 1987, CSA had grown to nearly 300 players, and the organization found a permanent home at Cook Soccer Park. Matches were played on three fields. Two additional fields were constructed in 1995, and four long awaited cross walk bridges were added for the safety of players, parents, and fans in 2003. In the spring of 2004, T-Poles were built for each field to accommodate local merchant advertising. CSA now insures 800-900 recreational soccer players per season. Both the spring and fall seasons are eight weeks in duration. CSA also maintains a competitive travel division and an adult league for the young at heart.

CSA is a member of the TN State Soccer Association (TSSA). TSSA began in 1979 by experts of the game to advance and promote soccer at all levels. The game has caught hold and proven that it is the most popular game in the world and the fastest growing youth sport in the United States. TSSA is a nonprofit organization and a member of the United States Soccer Federation (USSF). Through the youth and amateur divisions, TSSA implements the USSF programs in the state of Tennessee.
