LUYSA And The Columbus Crew
We are organizing a Night at the Columbus Crew game on Saturday, May 3. We have a section reserved for us and hope to get a large number of people together for this.
Last year was a blast! They have a carnival like atmosphere before the game just outside the stadium (inside the gates). There are a lot of things the kids to do before the game. The Crew Cat is usually prowling about and is available for a quick picture or two.
This event will help the LUYSA secure future fun events for our kids and their families. It is open to everyone they just need to let them know they want to attend the Liberty Union night at the Crew.
The Crew will be taking on the Kansas City Wizards.
Game time is 7:30pm.
Tickets are only $17/person.
If you did not receive the original link (via email), please call our Columbus Crew Representative, Avin Assomull at 614-447-4106 or you can download the order form in League Information under LUYSA Columbus Crew Day - May 3

SOCCER… A GOOD SOURCE OF TERRA FIRMA!
Mud, Sweat and Cheers!!! LUYSA Soccer starts off with a SPLAT!
It was a beautiful day for soccer and mud volleyball, I may add.
I believe that everyone got their U.S. RDA of good ol’ mother
earth. Looked like just about all of the players had a good time
with it on Saturday. Some more than others. Additional pictures
will be added to the Photo Albums soon.
Thanks to all of the coordinators that got out there early before
the games to spread mulch on the fields. In an attempt to keep the
standing water to a minimum and the mud a little less splatty.
