Participants in the 2007-2008 ACT season can expect to receive their program evaluation packages in the mail in the next 2-3 days.
As we are always striving to be the best at what we do, we have found that feedback from all levels is necessary. Our program is only as good as we make it. Communication is an area that is very important in evaluating the program, enabling us to promote and achieve our goal of participants to experience the best youth competition soccer program possible. It is with this goal in mind that we ask for your help in this evaluation.
Please take a few moments to complete your evaluation and return to us in the self-addressed stamped envelope before August 8th.
We thank you in advance for taking the time to help make this program the best that it can be.

Answering their goal, Tsunami Tess Schomer volleyed the ball, outside of the penalty area, over the head of the opposing goalkeeper and into the back of the net, tying the score at 1-1. With minutes to go in the second half their opponents scored on a breakaway resulting in a 2-1 final score.
