The boys played very well, and they were able to collect enough points to compete in the simi-finals. Congratulations boys on a great weeend of soccer.

Raging Creek 4 v 4

What a great weekend of soccer. The team was split into 3 smaller 5-6 player teams for the tournament. All three teams played great. 2 teams made it to the semifinals, and 1 of those teams made it to the finals to finish as the U12 runner-up. Way to go boys!

Classic League

The boys played a great first half of the 2012 - 2013 Classic league season. With a team almost totally rebuilt with new players it was great to see the boys come together in such quick fashion. Congratulations to the boys and coach Wilco for the great fall results and best of luck in the classic league spring season. 

Team Legend - Ian Callaghan    

    Started on the right wing before being moved into the middle where his vision and experience was used to its fullest. Callaghan boasts without a doubt one of the most remarkable careers of any player in Europe past or present. He is LFC’s appearance record holder with 857 games and was the first Liverpool player to be chosen Footballer of the year in 1974, and was part of the England world cup winning team in 1966.
