The
Franklin County Youth Soccer Program will hold its opening day of
soccer on Saturday.
The
group has 18 teams this year, and 155 players.
The
teams are from Carrabelle, Eastpoint and Apalachicola.
They
also have dozens of volunteers helping to coach as well as serve as
assistant coaches and a team parents.
Franklin
County Commissioner Smokey Parrish pointed out that the soccer
program has been growing in recent years which he said is a good
thing because that's 155 local kids that aren't running around on the
street and instead are doing something constructive.
He
added that's why the county commission continues to support local
sports teams and he urged the public to support the program.
The
youth soccer season will officially kick-off with a day of soccer on
Saturday, September the 28th from 9 till 4 at DW Wilson Sports
Complex in Apalachicola.
They’ll
have the concession stand open for refreshments and a bounce house
for the kids to enjoy.
After
that there will be games 2 to 3 days a week for the next nine weeks
with the end of the season "Soccer Fun Day" in
November.
