BW Gottschee hosted an invitational
tournament on Nov. 25
at Brennan Field in Middle Village,
and both the soccer and weather
were of the highest quality.
The 2007 squad (players born in
that year) kicked off the morning
session with fi ve teams competing in
small sided round robin fashion. The
participating clubs included FA Euro,
Cold Spring Harbor (LI based BWG
partner club), Brentwood, Oceanside
and BWG.
Goals were abundant, but the
results were all by narrow margins;
three teams fi nished tied for fi rst
place overall. In the end, however,
BW Gottschee 07s took home the fi rst
place trophy for having scored the
most goals.
Meanwhile, the 2008 group kicked
off a highly anticipated aft ernoon
session with teams from Lake Grove,
Kings Park, Oceanside and BWG Blue
and White.
The BWG Whites and Blues very
comfortably maneuvered through
their opposition and found themselves
in a fi nal match against each
other. In the fi nal, The BWG White
team beat the Blue team to claim
bragging rights as tournament
champions.
BW Gottschee thanked all the
visiting clubs, club personnel and
parent volunteers who made this
soccer festival happen. The organization
also thanked referee Emil
Cohill for his eff orts to “let the kids
play” the game. Photos courtesy of BW Gottschee
