LFLS Kaunas (full name: Lietuvos fizinio lavinimosi sąjunga) was a sports club in Kaunas, Lithuania. It was founded in 1919 as Lietuvos sporto sąjunga. LFLS was dissolved in 1944, when Lithuania came under Soviet occupation. It was later re-activated in 1997.

The club's hockey section played in and won the first Lithuanian Championship in 1926. LFLS went on to win four more titles in pre-war Lithuania; in 1927, 1928, 1931, and 1933.
