The U11 Boys traveled to Apopka May 2nd and 3rd to play in the Nike Champions Cup. They finished their season in grand fashion by coming home champions. After winning all 3 games in their bracket, they played the CFU Raggamuffins in the Sunday afternoon final. They won 2-0 with a excellent team effort.

                       

The U14 Boys Nike team visited Central Florida and returned home wearing championship medals around their necks and enthusiastic about the great experience. The boys coached in Apopka by Andres Bolivar performed excellently in all aspects; technical, physical, mental, self motivation, and team work. Most importantly they showed great heart in every game, providing a great spectacle of soccer

Coaches Patti Barney and Dale Renwick took their Weston Fury U15 Girls Nike Team to Melbourne, where they came away with their third tournament title this season.  The competition in the Palm Bay Spring Challenge was tough; however, the name of the game for this tournament was DEFENSE, DEFENSE and more DEFENSE.  In most tournaments everyone speaks or writes of the goals, and of the great plays and players who score them.  Often defenses go unnoticed and receive little to no glory.  In this tournament the Nike girls defensive team did a phenomenal job, worthy of recognition.  Anchored by their goal-keeper, Clara Rivera, the girls gave up just one goal while the offense scored 10 goals against their opponents. 

The Nike team’s first match was against the Space Coast Storm in which they prevailed by a score of 2-0.  The defense which consisted of Alina Avalos and Adriana Rosario as the outside backs, stopper Caroline Fernandez and Angela Zarrilli at sweeper, took care of business clearing anything that came their way.  The girls next opponent was Central Florida United; a team named “Total Kaos”. This game lived up to its opponent’s name since the Nike offense was totally in control, yet after countless attempts remained ahead by only one goal. Kaos did manage to score with less than two minutes remaining, tying the game, and scoring the only goal of the tournament against the stingy Nike defense.  The next opponent was the Maitland Rage who felt the fury of a determined Weston team which beat them by a score of 3-0. 

The championship game against the Rockledge Steelers matched up two past rivals.  The Nike defense held the Steelers to a first half 0-0 tie.  However, in the second half the Nike offense was on fire.  Four goals were scored in the second half, one each from Nicole Milstein and Jessica Thornton and two goals from Jaclyn Stermer.  The ball practically never made it to the Weston Fury side of the field, thanks to the relentless pressure and dominant play provided by the midfielders Katie Haimes, Danielle Horgan, Kate Jacobsen, Steffi Maiman, Alexis Tebo, Meghan Peltier and Morgan McMillen.  Congratulations to our Weston Fury Nike Girls U15 team and in specific to our Coaches Patti Barney and Dale Renwick for another victorious tournament.

Congratulations to the Boys U-12 Premier team and Coach Henry Gomez assisted by Assistant Coach Emilio Blanco - Champions of the Miami Lakes Spring Shoot Out April 18th and 19th.  This was the boys first tournament playing 11v11 and they rose to the challenge defeating Team Boca 3-0, Miami Lakes 3-0, and SAA Madrid 4-0 to advance to the finals where they had a decisive win against Pinecrest Premier 4-1.

The Nova Southeastern University Women's Soccer team held a clinic at VistaPark for the Fury U9 - U11 Girls on March 11, 2009.  The clinic was very successful; in addition to learning a lot the girls had a great time interacting with the college players and coaches. Weston Fury Soccer Club is committed to providing innovative opportunities for our teams. Training with college players is just one of the ways to create a quality environment in which players can learn technical and tactical skills in a unique setting. It is part of the Club’s ongoing process to continue to improve the programming provided to the girls  

 Thank you to Coach Mike Goodrich and the Nova Southeastern players!

Congratulations, U9 Manchester United Boys, on winning the U10 Silver-2 Division at the Miami Lakes Shootout!!  These talented boys won games against Cutler Ridge and Kendall Hammocks in round robin play. Their game against Margate was a real nail-biter and the Manchester United boys lost a really close game by just one goal.  Their great record earned them a spot in the finals where they faced Margate once again, but this time emerged with a big victory!!  The players, coaches and parents are very proud of their accomplishments this season!   

 

The Weston Fury U9 Boys Juventus team had an outstanding performance at the Miami Lakes Shootout last weekend, finishing 2^nd in their group.  The boys were undefeated until the final game, in which they played another Weston team.  Both teams showed great team work and sportsmanship.  Congratulations to both teams!

Since the beginning of the year this team has been very close to winning a Championship, they were finalists in the Boca, Plantation, Wellington & Weston tournaments and only lost two games all season. Every player has developed since the start of the season thanks to the great coaching of Ivan Alarcon. This weekend the finals happened to be against another Fury team, the U9 Boys Juventus. The game was competitive and after being so close to winning other tournaments the Inter Milan team did finally finish victorious, players and parents were so happy. The boys played as a team; passing, taking on players, finishing plays and celebrating one another’s success. It was great to see two Weston teams in the final and we want to congratulate Coach Henry and the Juventus team on a game well played.  We also want to thank the parents because without their commitment this would not be possible.

Congratulations Weston Fury U11 Boys Premier For Being The SFU Division I Champions

 

Congratulations to the Weston Fury Boys U-11 Swoosh Team for winning the SFU Division II Playoffs on Sunday, February 22^nd, 2009.

The U14 premier team won the South Florida United Youth Soccer Association League post season championship on February 22.  The boys were seeded 2^nd after posting a 12-1-1 record for the season.  They played 3^rd-seeded West Pines United in the semi-final game, which ended with a 1-0 win for the Fury after double PK rounds.  Goal keeper Rafael Urbina was outstanding protecting the goal for Weston.  Vincenzo Candela, Rhys Williams, Jorge Torres and Alec Magdaleno scored for the team.  The championship game was played against Kendall Coalition, who advanced to the finals after beating 1^st-seeded Team Boca 2-1. The Fury boys were the champions after a 1-0 victory, with a goal by Nikki Pappacena assisted by Ryan Enriquez. 

Entering the SFU playoffs, the U14 Premier team had just come back victorious from the Weston Cup.  The boys had an impressive tournament, remaining undefeated all weekend long.  In the preliminary round they beat Sunrise 5-1, Naples Sharks 4-1 and Doral Milan 1-0.  The finals were against second place, Doral Milan, which yielded a score of 5-0.  

The team will be participating in the Jefferson Cup in two weeks, followed by State Cup.  Head Coach Leo Vega is assisted by Stephen Enriquez.

The U11 Nike team turned in a spectacular team effort in the Weston Cup Classic I Division. After winning all their games in the first round; Lauderhill Lions (4-1), Cooper City Cobras (2-0) and Key Biscayne Milan (2-0), they advanced to the semi-finals to play the wild card team, Cutler Ridge Soccer.  The Fury boys won 6-1 and faced the Weston U11 Swoosh team in the finals. Having two Weston teams play in the championship game was a great accomplishment, and ended with a victory for the Nike team.

Tampa - There was no panic, no fear.

For Plantation's American Heritage; a team that has rallied back from several deficits this season; it didn't matter that time was running down and they needed a score.

The Patriots continued pressing and finally, with 48 seconds left, forward Haleigh Stremanos capitalized.

Stremanos was in the right place to take a shot at an empty net, lifting Heritage to a 2-1 victory over St. Andrew's in a Class 3A state semifinal at Pepin Stadium.
