History

The TNT Dynamite Soccer Club was launched in the fall of 1999 with the goal of training and developing Mid-Michigan’s best players by providing the finest coaching available. Over the years, TNT has many accomplishments and accolades to prove that this goal was and will continue to grow into the success that we have acheived.

The club began with one team in its inaugural season and grew to four the following year in 2000.  An expansion to ten teams followed in 2001 and fifteen teams were offered a year later.  This rapid growth in highly competitive and well-coached teams continued over the last few years. The club now has multiple teams in almost every age group.

Over the years we have produced many ODP players as well as collegiate players. The club has had multiple teams compete in the Midwest Regional League and most if not all of the Premier age teams (13 and older) play in the top division in the Michigan State Premier Soccer League. We have had many teams find succes in the MSYSA State Cup as well. We have had teams represent us in the state quarterfinals, semi finals, and finals.

The TNT Dynamite Soccer Club also stands out in offering the area’s best and brightest coaching staff.  Under the direction of Dan Raben, who holds a USSF “A” License, the club’s coaching staff -- including ODP coaches, college coaches, MSYSA Instructional Staff Members, and some of the top high school coaches in the area – all are USSF-certified and we have the most credentialed staff in the area.

In the past year, 2009, the club has taken it largest step forward. The two largest clubs in the Lansing area, TNT Dynamite Soccer Club and formerly CA United, have merged to form the largest club and highest quality teams in the Mid-Michigan area. The club now has close to 450 players ranging from u9-u18. The merge of these two clubs has created an exciting buzz for our future and the future development of the players with our club.

Members of the TNT Dynamite Family -- from coaches to players to parents -- are committed to achieving their success with integrity, character and sportsmanship.  TNT Dynamite is not just a name known through Lansing; the entire state of Michigan along with the Midwest region have taken notice and have accepted it as a quality club that produces quality players with quality coaches.
