U-15 Metro Delta Coastal Sting Roster Announced



The week of April 7th saw the U-15 Delta Coastal evaluations take place for selections for the 2013/14 season. The evaluations sessions were spread out over three days and over 55 young ladies were out to try and secure a spot on the Sting's roster. While there was an abundance of soccer talent displayed on the field the Sting coaches are very happy to announce two new additions to the team. They are Danya from Langley FC and Sydney from Tsawwassen Soccer Club. These players worked very hard during the sessions and will add a lot of depth to the team and we are proud to have two new players and their families call the Sting their home.

On a sad note we will be sorry to see both Skye and Hailey leave as they are both pursuing their volleyball and softball passions for next season. Both of these players and their families have been a huge part of our team and will be sorely missed. That said Skye will still be training with the team for the next few months as they prepare for their trip to the USA Cup in Minnesota as she will be part of that experience.

Go Sting!!

USA Cup Kick TV

With the Sting starting to get ready for their trip to the USA Cup we always get the question what is this tournament all about?

It is an amazing life experience as the players will be at the largest soccer facility in the world, meet players from over twenty countries, be around 12,000 other soccer players at one venue, have a ton of fun and see some very competitive soccer. For those parents, family and fans that cant get down there to cheer on the Sting, Kick TV posts a daily video blog to the USA Cup website, yes the tournament is so big it even has its own television show. If you go to the Links tab on the left you can see some of the action and you may even see the Sting make an appearance. Go Sting!!!

Sting Take the International Stage



The Sting were asked to participate in the launch of the 2015 Womens World Cup logo at BC Place on Dec 14. Unfortunately not all the players could make this due to other commitments but the ones that did were part of a pretty special event. Not only was the event televised around the world but the players got to hang out with the Womens National team after the event as well as with coach John Herdman. All in all a pretty special moment for the players and one that wont be forgotten soon. Go Sting!!

A record for the Sting came to an end on Sunday at the Sting's Coastal Cup quarter final match. With Jamie off in Quebec with her school her 137 straight games played record ended for the Sting. This record dates back to the very first U-10 Development match the Sting played over four years ago. Hats off to Jamie for playing thru some sickness, bangs and bruises over the years.
