We are excited to announce the outstanding success of the Leominster Youth Soccer Boys’ under 12, under 14 and under 18 teams. The teams qualified for the finals of the Massachusetts Tournament of Champions that were held at U.Mass. Amherst , June 22 – June 24 and for the Nashoba Cup Tournament held June 16th. Outstanding performances in the regular season resulted in these teams representing the Nashoba Valley League in the these tournaments.
 

LEOMINSTER UNDER 14 BOYS WIN MASSACHUSETTS STATE SOCCER CHAMPIONSHIP!

Pride of place must go to the Under 14 boys team, who were crowned as State Champions.
In the group stage Leominster defeated Brockton 2-0, Lynnfield 2-0 and Leicester 5-1. The semi-final saw a thrilling victory over Norwell by a 1-0 score.
The final against Sandwich was equally exciting and ended with Leominster victorious by the score of 2-1. Throughout the tournament the team played with great skill and commitment. Goalkeeper, Daniel Espana , and his primary defenders, Mike Raspuzzi, Josh Schofield and Steve Caligaris were dominant throughout. Midfielders, Christian Despan, Justin Anthony, Emiliano Cespedes, Mitch Oldham and Mathias DosSantos were able to control the games with their tenacity and skilful distribution. In attack, the skill and combination play of Matias Curuchet, Juan Moreira and Diego Fagundez proved to be too challenging for the opposing defences. Outstanding support was provided throughout the tournament and regular season by Sam Bateman, Declan Lyons, Connor Morette, Taylor Powers, Lucas Rivero, and John Giacoppe . The goals in the tournament were scored by Diego Fagundez ( 6 ), Juan Moreira ( 5 ) and Emiliano Cespedes. Special thanks goes to the coaches: Geoff Anthony, Brian Schofield and Mike Raspussi.

This State Championship title is only the second such honor in the history of Leominster Youth Soccer, and was a remarkable achievement.  The picture below was taken during the award ceremony. Two more pictures are posted in our Photo Gallery section.

LEOMINSTER BOYS UNDER 18 TEAM

Although not able to match the outstanding success of the Under 14’s, the Under 18’s
also performed with great credit at the State tournament. The team had reached the play-offs of the Nashoba Valley League with a record of 7 wins, and a tie. A 4-2 victory over Oakmont finally secured a place in the finals. The goals were scored by David Ferreira (2) and Danny Anthony (2). At the tournament , the team defeated Watertown 1-0, tied with Swampscott 1-1, and lost 1-0 to JBO and 2-0 to Sandwich. Both goals at the tournament were scored by David Ferreira . The team proved to be worthy representatives of Leominster Youth Soccer and the Nashoba Valley League.

The U12A team secured a playoff spot in the Nashoba Cup tournament with a solid 5-3-0 record during the season. It's worthy to note that after a slow start the boys won 5 games in the row. Although they didn't manage to carry this momentum to the tournament it was a great experience to all to be exposed to the tournament atmosphere.

the team members were:

Ivan Abbermagger, Bradley Bedard, Andrew Bouchard, Anthony D'Olimpio, Maximiliano Delgado, Matthew Fitch, Patrick Flory, Michael Howard, Kenyon Kowalski, Hector Porcal, Daniel Romhanyi and Nicholas Trim under the coaching of Sean Flory, Gabor Romhanyi and Donald Fitch.

Our Fall 2006 season has came to an end. We were fortunate this fall to have fairly decent weather and were able to play almost all our games.

We need to thank all our volunteers for all their contributions to another successful season and for their help continuing to grow this wonderful sport in the city of Leominster.

We ask all parents not to delay their registration for the upcoming spring season. We can only guarantee placement for children registered before December 1st, 2006.

Unfortunately we were forced to turn away some players last season due to late registration. The number of teams has to be submitted to the League in mid-December and once those rosters fill up we are unable to expand them. Don't let your child miss out on the fun next spring!

On Saturday, October 28, nearly all of the NVYSL fields were shut down due to bad weather. Any matches postponed this weekend, Week 7, are automatically rescheduled for the same time and place on November 11, one weekend after Week 8. Note that the normal 4 PM start time for BU14 matches does not give enough daylight to play a full match after standard time takes effect on Sunday morning, October 29. BU14 coaches need to work together to agree upon an earlier start time, changing matches to fields with earlier open time slots, or playing matches shortened by darkness.

Our Spring Registration is now in progress. Please take advantage of the early registration discounts we are offering.
