Spring Super Cup 2009 & US98 Soccer Fans!
What a finish!! We really could not have asked for much more. We had great and close play in all of the consolation matches, and great and vibrant support and cheering from all of the Parents and Fans! And then, to put the cherry on top, we had two of the three Championship Matches come down to the final few minutes or even seconds, with US98 Soccer Supporters voicing and showing their enthusiasm for Our Youth and their efforts out on the pitch! Every participant and Player can hold their head up high knowing they gave it their all this season, and their commitment and dedication helped them become better Players and more disciplined Young Members of Our Community, all the while having a blast and enjoying The World's Most Beautiful Game!

Now that this Spring Super Cup Season has come to a close, it is time to start thinking and preparing for next season, as well as a few Summer Soccer Camps. On the Summer Soccer Camps front, we have tentative dates for camps set for the weeks of July 27th and August 10th. More information coming as soon as we confirm everything, but these camps will build on the phenomenal success of last summer, and features a balanced approach and focus on the physical and mental aspects of soccer fitness and preparation! Local fitness guru Paul Hunter of Grayton Beach Fitness and yoga yogi Lauren Romano to contribute and help provide a uniquely complete approach to soccer fitness and preparation.
Finally, if you have not done so, but are interested in helping US98 Soccer with fundraising as well as hosting its inaugural awesome annual event, get organized and get a team registered for the upcoming "Soccer by the Surf" Tournament (coinciding with the "Summer at the Sound" event at WaterSound, please see attachments). We are specifically focusing on teams in the U-10 (turned age 10 on August 2nd or after) and U-8 (turned age 8 on August 2nd or after) Divisions, that will play at WaterSound. That is some of our best competition out on the pitch during the recreational season, now let's see these Players in action Tournament-style.
