Used Equipement Collection

 

I hope you have all enjoyed another thrilling soccer season with El Cerrito Futbol Club!

As you start to put away soccer gear, take a minute to see if the cleats will fit, the shin guard protect – old uniforms Jersey’s, shorts and socks – might be getting a bit snug. If you have well used/non fitting, experienced Cleats, shin guards, old uniform, shorts, socks or soccer balls that your child has outgrown and that your child will no longer use;

Please tie up the cleats-in pairs, rubber band the shin guards, fold the uniforms and pair the sox – deflate the balls and bring them by my porch. I have a collection bin for experienced soccer gear that we will send on to kids around the world: Ghana, Tanzania, Ecuador & India. 

 

You can drop it by:

1720 Julian Court

El Cerrito, CA 94530

Just put it in the bin on my porch.

Thank you for your generosity, have a great holiday and a safe new year!

Jaguars
El Cerrito Teams Tournament Success !!!

Congratulations ECFC Jaguars U12G

The Jaguars began the 21st Annual Hayward Halloween Tournament with only 10 players (three in various stages of flu recovery), but that in no way dampened the "spirit" of Team Jaguar.  Having prepared for battle by donning the appropriate Halloween war paint (a spooktacular event in itself), Team Jaguar was fired up and looking more than a little intimidating.  The first match against the Vallejo United Strikers yielded a hard fought 1-0 victory for the Jaguars.  Fueled by a lunch arranged by our excellent parent volunteers and with further refinements to their menacing appearance, the team - now thankfully 11 strong - came together for a perfect 3-0 win against the MSC Clippers White in game two.  Sunday morning got off to a rough start for the Jaguars with some injuries and a tough team with a full bench of subs.  The 0-1 loss in game three to home team Hayward United was a definite shocker.  But Team Jaguar, still dominant in points and fury, rallied for the finals, taking on the MSC Clippers Red, another team with a deep bench and an impeccable record, in an incredible final championship game that ended in a 2-2 tie.  Two five-minute overtimes -- with the team back down to 10 due to injury -- ended in another tie.  The tie was finally settled by a PK shootout and the exhausted but very satisfied Jaguars finished in second place, receiving the Halloween treat of a huge trophy and an excellent team dinner.  Despite the clear disadvantage, the Jaguars rose to the challenge, without complaint or relief in the 80 degree heat, and played an unforgettable weekend of soccer in what was unquestionably the most outstanding display of toughness, will and determination I have ever witnessed in youth soccer.

 

Go Avalanche !!!

Congratulations to EC F.C. U16 Division 3 Girls Team Avalanche -
FINALISTS in the Kick or Treat Tournament in Freemont, October 24th & 25th


ECFC's Team Avalanche (U-16 Girls) had a great weekend at the KICK OR TREAT
Tournament in Fremont.  

In a grueling four-game, 5 team division, the Avalanche suffered a
disappointing loss in their first game on Saturday, but rallied back to beat
the Alameda Islanders (1-0) in the afternoon.  

Sunday morning, the Avalanche dominated their game with the Elk Grove Blaze
(winning 1-0, but with dozens of shots on goal).  The afternoon game was a
true battle against Castro Valley United-- Team Avalanche vigorously
defended their goal and fought to attack and score, but settled for a draw
at 0-0.  

The Avalanche played very tough, physical and demanding soccer over the
weekend-- and were rewarded with a very well-deserved 2nd place finish.  

GO AVALANCHE!

Lightning
More El Cerrito Tournament Success ...

ECFC Lightning Winterfest 2nd Place !!! 

Congratulations to the U14 Class 3 ECFC Lightning for a hard-fought 2nd
place finish in the Newark Winterfest tournament (December 13-14, 2008)
under very challenging conditions. With temperatures maxing out at around 45
degrees under gray skies and in strong, bone-chilling winds, the Lightning
battled to a 2-1-1 record, with convincing wins of 4-0 and 2-1 on Saturday
and Sunday mornings.


The rain forecast all weekend magically held off until the final game Sunday
afternoon, a brutal 1-1 tie vs. the DYSL Delta Extreme in freezing rain that
saw parents, players and coaches huddling together under awnings and around
portable heaters in a vain effort to stay warm.


This picture sums it all up - soaking wet, freezing cold, but very happy,
the perfect emblem of a "Winterfest".
