 President Note
Soccer
is the largest sport in the world. It is also the largest sport in
LMYA. We anticipate registering 3,000 children this year and having over
200 teams in our program. Ultimately the success of our soccer program
will rest in the hands of our volunteer parents.
We have a
history of strong volunteerism in our area. Our parents are dedicated to
having the best schools and the best group of volunteer programs to
supplement our children's greater education and socialization outside the
school. That's what makes this such a great area to raise a family.
We
are fortunate to have strong experienced volunteer sports chairs
returning in both Moraga and Lafayette this year. They have been working
behind the scenes for the past several months to get everything ready
for registration. I encourage all parents to volunteer for positions in
the soccer community. We appreciate everyone's effort. It will be well
worth it to you and especially the children.
Thank you very much for all of your support!
