Hopewell Youth Soccer
Opening Day for Hopewell Soccer Club!
Considering the rain that the area has had over the past couple of weeks, the chances of the Hopewell Soccer Club being able to hold Opening Day looked very doubtful.
Thanks to a couple of semi dry days and a lot of hard work from members of the organization, despite wet conditions, the games were played this morning at the Hopewell Soccer Club Fields on Service Creek Road.
It was a lot of fun watching the fields filled with kids running around and having fun!
The different age level of kids practice throughout the week and then play their games on Saturday morning.
Prior to his Hopewell U8 team playing, Hopewell Sports Nation talked with Head Coach Aaron Cumpston about the league and what he’s trying to teach the kids at this level.
In one of the games at 10:00 AM, a big congratulations to Landon Marocco from Coach Winiarski’s team for being named the “Viking of the Day” for his positive attitude, impressive play as goaltender and loud cheering for his team!
Awesome job Landon!
On another field, we had two more teams playing and Hopewell Sports Nation got some pictures and got some video of a couple of the goals that were scored.
Later on in the morning, Team Cumpston took on Team Goble’s team with Team Gobe getting the win, 7-3.
Player of the match was Finley Snouffer who had amazing footwork and played impressive defense. Lena Goble played keeper in the first half for Team Goble and didn’t allow a goal.
Goal scorers for Team Goble- Harper Shaffer, Finley Snouffer, James Bialowas and Colton Hample.
Goal scorers for Team Cumpston- Ola Gudson and Will Vukovcan (2).
Here is some game action along with some pictures from today’s match.
