Street Soccer NYC

11 players traveled from two HELP USA homeles shelters in Ward's Island near the Bronx down to Chelsea Piers. The team lost 14-4. They held the game at 4-1 until two goals in the final minute of the first half established larger gap between the teams. Despite the loss, the team did not fight amongst themselves and the hustle and sportsmanship were what we expect out of our program. Well done team. Coaches stressed that the positive attitude will help us build on the game. We can focus on the soccer since we don't have to sort our team disagreements. The rest of the season's sechedule is listed below. We play at 10pm versus Bloomberg FC next week. This is good news for us since our working players will be a off and back to the shelter in time to compete this go around.

Bloomberg FC was vitories 15-8 in their first game, so our work will be cut out for us. Check back to the blog for images and stories of players from games and practices.
