OSSA LO Fitt Soccer Training Program

Surf Cup Thanksgiving - The OSSA 95 Blue and OSSA 93 Blue teams competed in the Surf Cup this past weekend in sunny San Diego. Both teams had very successful weekends. The OSSA 95's played in the U16 Super Group and went 1-1-1, the highlight was beating a highly ranked So Cal Blues team 3-0 in pool play. The OSSA 93 Blue team went 3-0-0 in bracket play then won their semifinal game in OT but unfortuantely lost in the final 1-0. Both teams represented the club very well.

 
OSSA 95 Blue win Surf Cup

Congratulations to the OSSA 95 Blue team who captured the 2011 Summer Surf U16 Championship.  The team got off to an indifferent start but improved considerably as the tournament progressed.  In the Semi Finals the put in a comprehensive performance to defeat local rival THUSC Sodium 3-0.  In the final they defeated Eastside FC from Bellevue 2-0.  The win caps off a tremendous year that has seen the team reach the Semi Final of the Players Showcase in Las Vegas and then win Oregon's US Club State Cup, the 2011 NWCL, 2011 Oswego NIKE Cup, and now the 2011 U16 Gold Surf Cup.

OSSA Teams in Inaugural Game at Jeld-Wen Field

On April 13, 2011 the OSSA 93 and 94 Blue became the first teams to play at the newly renovated Jeld-Wen Stadium. Despite the very heavy rain that fell the girl's had a great time and we would like to thank the Portland Timbers for giving the girl's the opportunity to be a part of the 'soft opening' of the new Stadium.


 
NWCL Champions

OSSA 95 Blue pose for a picture after winning the U15 Division of the Northwest Champions League. The 95 Blue defeated EMFC of Eugene on penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw in regulation.

It was a great weekend with the OSSA 93 Blue also capturing the U17 girl's title after beating WSM Fury.

As a result of winning the NWCL both groups have qualifed for Surf Cup.

Keep posted as both the U17 and U18 Boy's Green have progressed through to the NWCL Semi Finals to be played later this year.
