Thanks to all who helped organize the food fest and for driving down to Foxboro.

Scroll back up to see details on SYSA's annual TRIP TO THE REVOLUTION in June.

We had fantastic weather for the week and great fun with our coaches-Brendon (Duck), Ash,  and Tim from England and Francesco from Italy. Thanks to Youth Elite Soccer for sending them and for presenting a soccer program that not only teaches soccer skills but get the kids excited about the game because they have fun.

Thanks to the Kingston Fire Department for, once again, supplying water for "soak the coach", Friday. Thanks also to our host families: Ed & Nancy Condon, the Kalinowski family and the Sice family. They thoroughly enjoyed having the coaches stay with them for the week and the coaches appreciated their hospitality.

Have a great summer, everyone!

CONGRATULATIONS to the SYSA girls' U-13 travel team for their hard-fought victory over the Granite FC Soccer Club to win the 2010 Granite State Soccer League Championship in Pembroke.

Down by a score of 2-0 at half-time, the girls, led by Coach Dan Mahoney, and assistant coach Bob Smith, came back to tie the game 2-2 at the end of regulation. After 2 overtimes, the teams played hard but were still tied, forcing a shoot-out of penalty kicks. As the fans watched and cheered with great anticipation, the scored remained tied after 9 shooters. The winning strike was finally delivered by Kelly Collins, finding its way into the net after deflecting off the crossbar. 

We are very proud and send congratulations to all the players: Olivia Battye, Ellery Rasmussen, Michaela Streep, Sierra Swasey, Chelsea Schultz, Michelle Merritt, PJ Ross, Taylor Kurto, Maddie Mahoney, Ashlyn Forbes, Kristen Phillips, Sophie Smith, Shannon Kinsella, Sophie Bortone, Eric Kinsella, Haley Herrmann and Kelly Collins.
