The STAR SC Elite '97 is a competitive u12 girls soccer team. Spring '06 was the first season that the Elite '97 competed on a competitive level. Prior to competing in select soccer at u8 many players on the team played recreational SAY soccer. After the Spring '06 season the league mandated small sided 6v6 games instead of 8v8 for the u9/u10 age groups. As a result of the rule change, a second team, the STAR SC Elite was created. Following the spring '07 season, players from the the STAR SC Black coached by Dave Snyder and STAR SC Elite merged.

Our team's #1 goal is to HAVE FUN!!!

The Elite '97 & Jags completed the fall outdoor season in championship form. Both teams finished pool play undefeated on their way to Sunday's championship game.  One reason that both teams found themselves in the championship game was the collective defensive effort on the part of every Jag & '97 player. Both teams combined to score 32 goals and only allowed 5 goals in eight games. In the finals of the orange bracket, the Jags defeated CUSA Courage 3 to 1.  In the black bracket the Elite '97 won in PKs over Loveland SC Orange 3 to 2. Great job and great tournament to everyone.
