WFFSC Awards College Scholarships
ScholarshipPresentation2009
WFFSC Awards College Scholarships
Here is a picture of a college scholarship award that we at WFFSC are very proud of. The success of the club has allowed WFFSC to present two $500 college scholarships to a couple of very worthy candidates who were selected from several who applied for the scholarships. The application basically required info about where they were going and an essay about what WFFSC has meant to them. The selections were extremely difficult due to the many highly qualified applicants.
 
The award recipients were Bridgett Carter and Ashley Jamieson. Bridgett is attending Sacred Heart University pursuing a degress in Biology and Ashley is attending Salve Regina University pursuing a degree in Elementary Education. Both Bridgett and Ashley have played soccer at WFFSC for many years.
 
WFFSC is very proud to be able to award these $500 scholarships to these two highly-qualified students. We wish them the best in their pursuits.

U14 Girls Finish Second at Teamworks in B Division

The trophies were presented to the team for being the U14B East runner ups for the first session at RI Indoor.  The girls only loss during the regular season was to Johnston and that is the team they lost to in the championship.  They had to play the championship game after wining their semi final game in a shootout over EG.  With few subs and no time to rest the girls were not able to pull off an upset against the undefeated Johnston team (no losses, but had one tie against us).  The girls were 6-1-1 during session 1.

The order of the players appearing in the picture are below:

U14 Boys Win Championship!!
view full size

    The U-14 Boys won the 2007 North Kingstown Father's Day Tournament in history making form.  The Team ended the regular 3 guaranteed game play with a 2-0-1 record.  WFFSC then had to wait for the results of another game (Ocean State vs. South County) before they knew they made the championship game.  The results of the Ocean State vs. South County game did not produce a winner for the division.  Instead WFFSC and Ocean State were in a knotted up tie through all five procedures used to determine the winner of the division (i.e. - (1) results of head-to-head competition; (2) most victories; (3) fewest losses; (4) least goals allowed; and (5) most goals scored with no more than a four goal differential spread allowed per game).  According to Tournament officials this has never before happened in the history of the Tournament.  The determining procedure came in the form of a best of 5 person shoot-out.  WFFSC needed just four opportunities to win the chance to play in the title game hitting 3 of 4 goals with Ocean State hitting only 1 of 4.  Chris Quinn had two amazing saves in those missed goals for Ocean State and the third sailed over the goal out of play.


    Once in the championship game  WFFSC battled anothre team from South County and the winner of their Division to a 2 to 2 tie in regulation play.  After a ten minute overtime period the score was still 2 to 2.  The U-14 Boys then entered their second shoot-out of the day with again a best of 5 goal making opportunity.  This time it took 5 opportunities to seal the win for WFFSC making 3 of 5 attempts while giving up just 1 of 4 to South County.

U12 Boys State Champs!!!
view full size
The U12 Boys team from WFFSC won the Rhode Island State Championship and will represent Rhode Island in the US Youth Soccer League National Championship Tournament. The national tournament is divided into four regions. Rhode Island champions play in Region 1 that comprises the Northeast including Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and the New England states. The games for Region 1 will be played in Portland Maine the weekend of June 29-July 3. On Thursday, June 28th the team will participate in the parade of champions. They will play games on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with possible playoffs on Monday and Tuesday.  

This is a huge accomplishment for this team and WFFSC. This is the first town club boys team in RI to win a state championship in several years, being that typically the champions come from the premier clubs. This is a tribute to the players, the coaches, and WFFSC for being able to compete and win consistently at this level of competition. 

The team won against Blackwatch 2-1 in an exciting final game to win the championship.

Congratulations to the players, their parents, and the coaches for this great success.

Phil Tantimonico excels on ODP Team
The Rhode Island ODP U-13 Team, with Phil Tantimonico from WFFSC as a starting foward, went to New Jersey the weekend of June 9th and 10th to participate in the Region 1 Ryder Cup Tournament at Mercer County Park in New Jersey. The Rhode Island ODP U-13 Boys Team won all three games and ended the tournament with a 3-0 record. They were victorious aganist Maine 4-0, aganist New Jersey 4-1, and aganist Penn 9-2.  It is our understanding that in the history of the Region 1 Tournament, dating back to 1999, that no Rhode Island Team has ever won all three games. Phil can play any position and is a very unselfish player who is a "coaches player".  Phil is a great representative for WFFSC.

Congratulations Phil on your achievements!!!!

The WFFSC U12 Boys team coached by Joe Pacheco, John Crowley, and Doyle Byrd won in the premier division at the Holiday Tournament at Forekicks. Besides WFFSC, the teams included Blackwatch, Boston Bolts, and the Scorpions, all Rhode Island and Massachusetts premier teams. WFFSC first played Blackwatch and won 4-0. Then the team tied the Scorpions 1-1. The last game against the Bolts was won by WFFSC 3-0. The championship game was then played against the Scorpions. At halftime, WFFSC was behind 1-0. However, the final score was a 3-2 nailbiter for WFFSC. After all the outdoor tournaments and indoor tournaments plus going undefeated in two indoor leagues, the team's record is an incredible 27 wins, no losses, and one tie, with many of the wins against teams from premier clubs. This is an amazing feat for any team. Congratulations!!!

U12A Boys win championship at Amherst Memorial Day Classic
Finals Ceremonial Lineup

The U12A Boys team won in dramatic fashion the championship at the Amherst Memorial Day Classic Tournament. The team finished 1-2-0, loosing to two NH premier teams in close games, and only had a very slim chance of making the playoffs, needing a tie in the final game between two other teams in order to get into the playoffs. Well, good news was that things worked out and the team got into the playoffs. The bad news is that the team had to play one of the premier teams that they had previously lost to in a semi-final game and then if they won would have to face the other team, who had a bye and would be fresh for the final game. It was a hot, sunny day, which did not help.

The team came out fired up for the semi-final game and got a measure of revenge by beating the premier team 3-1 to make it to the finals. The team gave their all and the coaches were concerned that the kids may not have enough in the tank for the finals, especially in the heat and sun. The parents, who are a wonderful bunch, ensured that the players had sufficient water and ice for the games.

The kids played great in the final game. It was 1-0 at halftime and then we tied the score at about the midpoint of second half. The game ended with a 1-1 tie. There were then two 5-minute overtime periods with Golden Goal (sudden death) rules. No score happened during the overtime periods and the game went to penalty kicks.

The team was amazing with their penalty kicks. The other team as well shot a very high percentage. After the fourth round, it was tied 3-3. Then a very strange play occurred. Our player kicked the PK and the ball hit the top crossbar and went straight up in the air. The goalie, thinking that the ball had gone over and out of bounds, went running out of the goal box. The parents of the other team were cheering wildly, thinking that they had a chance to win the game on the next kick. However, the ball, after seeming to hang in the air forever, started coming down. The very experienced ref was watching the ball and had not yet blown the whistle. The ball hit about 6 feet in front of the goal. Could it be possible? Sure enough, the ball had spin on it and started rolling back towards the goal, just crossing the line with about 6 inches to spare. The ref called a goal and the cheers quickly went from the other team to ours. While our sympathies go to the goalie who did not finish the play, we were pleased to get the goal.

They then scored as well so after the required 5 PKs, it was tied 4-4. Then it went into overtime for the PK's. We would score and then they would score. Truly amazing how the kids handled the intense pressure. Finally after 7 rounds, our goalie made a great save and the championship belong to the kids who showed so much heart in beating two premier teams.

It was truly an amazing, storybook run to the championship.

Warwick Fire Fighters Girls U14 team wins championship at the North Kingstown Father’s Day Tournament.


The WFFSC girls won their second consecutive North Kingstown Father’s Day championship in grand fashion this weekend. Starting on Saturday, WFFSC kicked off the tourney by defeating two local rivals WSA (4-2) & CLCF (4-0) followed by an early Sunday morning victory over a Connecticut team, Rocky Hill SC (2-0). Once the round robin part of the tournament was finalized, WFFSC had taken the top seed with a 3-0 record and was set to face another Connecticut team, Glastonbury, for the championship.


The WFFSC girls set notice that the championship was theirs by scoring within the first 30 seconds. Once taking the lead they never looked back by scoring 3 more goals and finishing off Glastonbury 4-0. When the tournament had finished and the dust had settled the WFFSC girls had posted a perfect 4-0 record and outscored their opponents by a combined score of 14-2, with three shutouts, leaving no doubt that they were the 2006 Father’s Day champions.


This championship took on very special meaning for this team.  Earlier this year, the team lost its mentor and head coach of 6 years, Tom Williams. So, befittingly, on Fathers Day the WFFSC Girls and head coach Jim Sullivan raised their championship trophies proudly in memory of a great father and coach, Tom Williams.
