The club would like to take this opportunity to Congratulate the Juventus 94 Boys Soccer team from our Advance Level Competition for getting to the Semifinals of the U15 Washington State Cup!  These young men epitomize what Salmon Creek Soccer is all about:

·    Development of the individual soccer player to their highest level
·    Development of the team to be competitive at the highest level
·    Strive for excellence while showing great sportsmanship in representing Salmon Creek

This team (Coaches, Players, Volunteers, and Families) has played at the highest level available to them at Salmon Creek and have been #1 that entire time.  Salmon Creek recognized this fact last year and actually began looking at options for this team to compete at higher levels which are not currently available to the Boys program due to the following:

·    Salmon Creek Soccer's Advanced Level provides our teams with great competition from U10 - U14 by playing in the Oregon Premier League which is close to home.  We are not part of the group of clubs mainly in Seattle who have formed the PDL, so we do not participate in that league. 
·    Salmon Creek has really not pushed to gain entrance into the PDL as we do not see the benefit to the majority of our players as the competition is not that much greater than what we get in Oregon to out weigh the travel and costs it would be for our families to compete in that league.
·    At U15 and above, our girl program continues to play in the Oregon league getting that great competition required to continue to develop. 
·    However, the Oregon schedule does not work out for the boy program due to high school and Washington Boys State Cup schedules.  This fact required this team to play in the Washington State League at a Premier 1 level.  They have finished in 1st place the past 2 years.
·    The competition was not as strong as the Oregon League or the PDL as the better teams in Washington compete in the PDL.

What Salmon Creek has put in place as a trial program this year, which if successful, would be the model for our boys program going forward:

·    Washington Soccer Academy (WSA) and Salmon Creek have come to agreement in putting together a joint tryout for the Juventus 94s under the WSA umbrella. 
·    Victor has been selected as the coach for this team with
·    All aspects of the team remain the same except for the club affiliation and the uniform.   
·    They will compete in the highest level of competition available to a boys high school level club team in our area within the PDL league.

Both Salmon Creek and WSA are very excited about this program which allows for kids to stay locally and play with their friends and teams at the U10 – U14 ages while still having the opportunity to move to that highest level at the high school age.
Again, CONGRATULATIONS to the Juventus 94!  We will all be cheering you on as you take your next challenge in your soccer development.

Let's Make It Happen!
 
What - Salmon Creek Soccer Club's TURF FIELD! Keeping our local soccer players close to home with a quality venue for tournaments, games & practices year round.
 
When - As early as FALL 2010! (if funding can be secured)
 
Where -  HB Fuller Park in Salmon Creek
 
How - With YOUR help with our first Club fundraiser!*
 
 
 
THE SCSC "LOOSE CHANGE" FOR A "GREAT CHANGE" FUNDRAISER!
 
 
The plan is to provide the soccer players in our club with collection containers for loose change. When the containers are filled, the player will deposit the change into a "master" collection container and receive an entry into a raffle for prizes donated by area merchants. Players can enter as often as they fill their collection container. The more the better and the better their chances for winning one of a number of prizes. Grand prize would go to the player donating the most "loose change" over the course of the fundraiser.  
 
Volunteers are needed for the following:*
 
- assemble and distribute player collection containers.
- assemble a "master" collection container (possibly a plexiglass "box" with locking lid)
- send requests for merchandise donations to area merchants for raffle (previous donor list will be provided)
- ongoing promotion of the event.
- administration & record keeping for the event.
 
This event, and our turf field, CAN happen with plenty of volunteers helping out! 
 
Please consider donating a small amount of time for this worthy cause!
