American Solution FC: Club News

  In 2012 American Solution FC began the year with 2 teams playing in the OYSAN State League. The now U13 & U15 Boys were the club's only sides. As 2012 ended the Club was quickly growing and now included, 2 new girls squads, U10 & U17, and 3 new boys squads, U10, U11, and U14s. Knowing the Club's growth wasn't slowing, the Coaching Staff was primed to grow and expanded from 2 to 5 Staff Coaches.

  In Febuary 2012, Steve Trapp, Berea High School Boy's Varsity Coach and Cleveland State University Soccer stand out, was brought in to coach the now U11 Boys allowing Coach Rico & Paddy to focus on the now U17 Girls side. The 2012 Spring season saw the 'Solution' double in size from Fall 2011 to Spring 2012. After the Spring season ended American Solution added two more sides in the Fall, the U10 Girls and Boys teams and the Coaching Staff also grew, adding Coach Joe Buchek, North Ridgeville Girls Varsity Coach, and his son Kevin Buchek to the new and improved staff.

  As players moved off to play high school soccer the club created another boys team for the many U14's in the "Solution Family" bringing the number of team's established to seven.

  Lots of behind the scene's work was done in 2012 to get the Club to where it is now. American Solution FC will be looking forward to 2013, and adding younger sides into the mix of our already established teams.

  Thank you to all our Players & Parents in the Club for believing and trusting what we have set out to do. It is our honor to be associated with such fine families. Would also like to thank the State League administrators of Ohio-North, and NEO Soccer (Indoor Facility) for allowing American Solution join their respected leagues. A special thank you goes to the Frontline Soccer & Supply Shop for being very supportive and timely getting all our players into uniforms (The New Kits are coming for Spring 2013.)

Thank you to the North Olmsted Soccer Organization (NOSO) for all it has done to help us in our early years as a club. In Particular, former President Miguel Cora and his relationship with us, and Vice-President John Cannon for all he has done to help our club. American Solution FC is very grateful.

Lastly, we would like to thank everyone not mentioned above who have helped along the way. Here's to a great 2013! 

 American Solution FC, 2012.

U10 Boys (Fall only)

Solution Staff continues to grow with the addition of Coach Joe Buchek. The North Olmsted resident and Normandy HS grad brings a extensive bucket of football knowledge to the club. Joe is currently coaching the Lady Rangers at North Ridgeville HS. "Joe's class, creativity and attention to the details of the game is welcomed and encouraged."

Coach Buchek's first duty for the club is as Head Coach of the new ASFC U10 Girls team.

Solution star Josh B. has been identified by Bolton Wanderers of England during a summer camp in 2011. Josh and his father Joe will be heading to the Reebok Stadium Grounds in Bolton, England in late November 2011. Players identified by Bolton's professional coaching staff have been invited to this Trial, Josh will join other players throughout the world that have also been identified by the staff. American Solution Coaches/Players/and parents from the whole club would like to congratulate Josh for this monster accomplishment. All the best from everyone and we do believe in your talent, work ethic, and character. Good Luck!!

 Update 2012:

England Calling, is Josh there? Can you bring some friends? 

U15 Forward / Goalkeeper Josh B. is fresh off his England trip for Bolton Wanderers and is making his presence known in the high school soccer circuit.

This time around U14 Center Back, Ben G. jumped on the Super Clubs training tour and gained some valuable international experience in the UK.

Rumor also has it a couple more Solution lads will be headed to the Horwich area of Metropolitan Borough of Bolton, Greater Manchester in July 2013.

Well done fellas!

                      Opening day for the OYSAN State League saw the U12 Boys take on the Mansfield Flames, and the U14 Boys play their chief rival Concordia. Lots of hard work on and off the field made what the day would turn into for Solution FC.

                       The U12's made their mark on the league in their opener and won 7-0. Congrats to Carter C. for scoring the club's first ever State League goal. Josef P. for recording the club's first hat-trick, and GK's Tyler R. and Daniel G. for the club's first shut-out. Tyler's penalty kick and Bryan K. added two goals of his own. A monster effort from defenders Michael C. and Chris R.. Midfielders Liam N. and Josh R. contributed as well for Solution FC and the three points out the gate in league play. Next: TSI Premier, August 27, 10am. Barton-Bradley.

                        After the U12 news, the U14 would open the season with Concordia. A game with a bit of history behind it. Solution coaches used to coach Concordia and many of the players were teammates up until last year. This would be the 2nd meeting of the all-time series, with Solution taking the first 3-0 at the NOSO Cup. Concordia would go on to win the NOSO Tournament after bouncing back to win 3 straight after the tough fought loss. The State League opener would not dissapoint, a full crowd was gathered at Barton-Bradley Fields and the game was a good one.

                        The 6-3 battle was headlined by a Josh B. Hat-trick. Jacob W., Danny S, and Brian G. would also find the net for the winners. Although Solution coaches were not pleased with giving up 3 goals. There were many positives that came out and anytime you can beat your chief rivals you take it. Like to thank all the boys for their awesome effort. On a special note welcome back Zac G. from injury who got some time in the game. Welcome back ZAC!!! Next: at Cleveland FC, Sept. 17.

                    After the September 24 games at Ontario soccer in Mansfield the two teams are both at the top of the tables in the OYSAN State League. The U14 Boys are 3-0-0 with victories over Concordia, CFC(13), and North Central United. Danny S. has tallied goals in all three matches, Austin has been solid in the net, and the team has played solid throughout. A hefty setback has occurred with Josh B. sustaining a fall season ending shoulder injury unrelated to soccer, the club wishes him the best for a speedy recovery and will definitely be missed being one of the team's strongest players. With 5 matches left  for the U14's the team will have to step up against some stiff competetion remaining in October.

                     The U12 team has gelled well up to this point. After the opening game victory over Mansfield Flames, the team dropped a match to TSI Premier without Captain and goal scoring midfielder Josef P.(Injury). The team then bounced back after the minor setback to thrash Mahoning Valley, and then beat a gritty Breckville bunch 3-0. The next game at Mansfield vs. North Central United was one story book victory for the boys.

                       The Mansfield trip started with a few players who could not make the game. Then another last minute cancellation (Thanks alot David Beckham). This put the boys who would make this game in a bit of a bind. GK Tyler R. would have his best match of the season (after the game the other coach said "He was the best in the league"). Defender's Michael K., Carter C., and Chris R. were amazing and followed instruction to a tee. Midfielder's Josh R. and Josef P.(who would score twice) put in crazy work and forward Bryan K. tallied twice for the much needed counter-attack goals. The story here is that the boys were a man down with only 7 players (8 are allowed) and obviosly zero substitutes for the game. The opponent was a good one who was unbeaten until the "Solution 7" installed Coach Paddy's game plan, which included major energy conservation and playing a frustrating brand of soccer in a very defensive posture. Looking to just knick a few goals the boys scored 4 times and conceded once. The effort was ridiculous and the boys followed the game plan on spot to move in first place with 4-1-0 record. The "Solution 7" made their way into club folklore, Well Done Boys!!!

Congratulations to the American Solution U12 Boys for their OYSAN State League D-2 Championship this past Fall. The boys finishing 7-1-0 was truly a surprising accomplishment taking that they were put together in the final weeks of July 2011. The club's expansion with the U12 Boys has come to form and the team's future looks very bright. Not knowing what to expect from their inagural season the boys did not disapoint anyone in the front office. With their Fall 2011 D-2 title, promotion to the 1st Division in 2012 will be on the horizon and no doubt the challenges ahead of them will be excepted.
