Club Competitive Program Standards- Revised 4/25/11
Our U-17 G Aftershocks represented SRS well at the Capital Valley United Thanksgiving Tournament in the combined U-17 through U-19 Girls age group at Cherry Island over Thanksgiving weekend. They had three wins in group play and after a final in the Championship game of 1-1 against Elk Grove Elite, the Aftershocks won in the first round of penalty kicks 4 to 3. Congrats to Coach Zach Ellis and his team!
