Yes, Soccer Players, you're at your best here in Park City. But we couldn't do it alone. Remember those coaches who give it their best and teach you all you know.

Don't forget the referees. Ah yes, the trusty few (all volunteers) who keep the spirit of the game going. These people in black will k always be there, rain, snow or sun , (mostly snow).
