BRSC Capitals 2026 Roster
The BRSC Capitals are set for the 2026 season with a roster that blends proven talent and rising stars, building on the momentum of last year’s finals appearance. Featuring several returning standouts alongside an exciting wave of young players from the BRSC Competitive pathway and the Louisiana Elite MLS NEXT Academy program, this group reflects both continuity and the club’s commitment to developing the next generation of high-level talent.
With experience, athleticism, and a hunger to take the next step, the Capitals enter the new campaign with clear intent. “We didn’t bring this group together to be satisfied with last year,” said new Head Coach Sean LeBlanc. “There’s talent here, no question, but more importantly, there’s an edge. We expect to set the tone every time we step on the field and make it clear we’re the team to beat.”

BRSC Capitals 2026 Tryouts Set for March 18 & 25
The standard has been raised. Now it’s time to build what’s next.
BRSC Capitals will hold 2026 tryouts on March 18 and 25 at Our Lady of the Lake Fields at Burbank Soccer Park at 8:15 pm (field 5). After a runner-up finish in 2025, the expectation is clear: we are not rebuilding, we are reloading.
This year marks a new chapter for the Capitals as Sean LeBlanc steps into the Head Coach role.
Coach LeBlanc brings a proven track record of developing elite players and competing at the highest levels in the state and region. He currently serves as Head Coach at Denham Springs High School, and leads the 2008/07 MLS NEXT squad with Louisiana Elite. Capitals players and families will also recognize him from his role as last season’s assistant coach.
This isn’t a new face learning the culture.
It’s a leader who understands the standard.
Last season’s Capitals squad set the bar high. Competing all the way to a championship final requires consistency, depth, and a commitment to daily development.
Now the focus shifts to:
-
Raising the competitive level within the roster
-
Accelerating player growth and exposure
-
Building a team capable of finishing the job
What to Expect at Tryouts
Players can expect sessions that are:
-
High intensity
-
Game-realistic
-
Competitive
-
Evaluated with clear standards
Coach LeBlanc and staff will be looking for technical quality, decision-making speed, tactical understanding, and competitive mentality. But just as important is coachability. Players who embrace feedback and push themselves daily.
Who Should Attend?
-
College Players Looking to Stay Sharp
-
Elite High School Players (Juniors and Seniors) Preparing for College
-
Elite Amateur Players
If you’re driven to improve and compete for championships, this is where you belong.

By Karalyn Thomas
The BRSC Capitals are in the GCL2 Final and will face off against Central Louisiana FC at Olympia Stadium on Saturday, July 12th at 7:15 pm.
It was an unforgettable night under the lights for the Capitals, backed by an electric crowd of over 300 fans. The Capitals defeated LA Krewe Rush 4-1 in a thrilling match that kept the crowd on their toes!
Alicia Whidden, a BRSC parent in the stands for the semi-final game, said, “I know how hard they have worked for this, and it’s so awesome to watch it all unfold.” Join us to #RepTheRedstick in your BRSC gear this Saturday! Remember that BRSC youth players will get in free if they are wearing their RED game shirt! There will also be a halftime challenge. Ages 11-17 will be $5 admission, and ages 18+ will be $10 (processing fees not included).
These Caps have been UNDEFEATED all season long and this is the first time since 2021 that this team has qualified for the playoffs. Head Coach Craig Scott stated, “We’ve been grinding since April, practicing and getting in shape for the season. We’ve added quality players on top of the quality we retained from last season. The squad has the perfect balance between experience and youth. Everyone is hungry for the same outcome.”
When asked what the team will focus on for the finals, Scott said, “We will look to maintain sharpness and continue to focus on what we can control to ensure we’re ready!”
As coach Craig Scott approaches his last game ever with this team, he reflects and says, “I have enjoyed every moment, highs and lows. It’s been an excellent learning experience and journey on a personal level, and I’m excited to close out the season as we look for our first GCPL title.”
Opponent Overview
Central Louisiana FC secured their spot in the playoffs by tying 4-4 with LA Krewe Rush. They then went on to defeat Mississippi Blues in their semi-final playoff 2-1, which qualified them for the upcoming championship match.
BRSC Capitals have worked their way to the top, and it all comes down to the final battle. We need YOU in the stands! Loud. Proud. United. Pack the stadium and show the Capitals what home support sounds like!
BRSC to Host Semi-Pro Doubleheader in Baton Rouge – June 28
Baton Rouge Soccer Club’s men’s and women’s semi-professional teams will host a double-header on Saturday, June 28th. One ticket grants fans access to both matches. BRSC youth players (both recreational and competitive) can enter for free if they wear their red tops.
Both teams showcase talented youth prospects from the club, as well as former players on summer break from college. They are joined by experienced veterans who continue to compete at high levels.
The Baton Rouge United Women will play against the Mississippi Blues at 4:30 PM at Olympia Stadium, followed by the BRSC Capitals’ semi-final match against LA Krewe Rush at 7:15 PM.
Baton Rouge United Women Head Coach Bruno Antunes and Coach Stephen McAnespie aim to improve upon their previous scoreless draw against the Blues as they wrap up the regular season. Although the season hasn’t gone exactly as Coach Antunes had hoped, the United squad has shown significant improvement and is becoming more competitive, mirroring the progress of the Capitals.
The BRSC Capitals recently captured the East Division GCL2 title with a 4-2 victory at home against the Mississippi Blues. The Caps remain undefeated this season and will close out the regular season against last-place Invictus FC. This semi-final match will also mark the Capitals’ return to postseason play since 2021.
“This moment means everything,” said BRSC Capitals Coach Craig Scott. ” For three years we’ve worked, grown, and stayed committed through the ups and downs. Making the playoffs is exciting, but we’re not done yet.”
Tickets for the match are only $10 for adults and $7 for youth (card only). Concessions will be provided by Fastball Sno-balls. Tickets can be purchased online at slocaltix.com.
