Wings of Wilkes Soccer Association is a fairly young soccer organization handling the soccer activities for youth in Wilkes County, North Carolina. The association is made up entirely of volunteers and handles applications for around 700 youth players ranging in age from 3 to 14.
All recreation games and home select games are played at the beautiful River's Edge Soccer Complex located off 268 West in Wilkesboro. This 11+ field complex was created from a cornfield off of the runway at the Old Wilkes County airport and has been turned into one of the nicest facilities of its kind in North Carolina. The site has been host to various NC State tournaments including the preliminaries of the Challenge Cup. In May of 2000 Wings of Wilkes played host to the finals of the NC State Challenge Cup.
