Another great soccer season!

The Central Frontenac Soccer Association held the season wrap-up meeting on October 5. This year saw a number of changes, mainly the weeks of play being changed to work with the area softball association, which allowed kids to play both sports throughout the summer months. This seemed to be a well-received change and the soccer association saw a number of new players who had never played before because of the conflict in scheduling. There was still an overlap between the two sports in some divisions this past summer for a couple of weeks; the association will work to resolve this for the 2012 season.

Antoine Realty, Sharbot Lake Home Building Centre, and Ram’s Esso sponsored new team jerseys as our divisions had a number of changes this season. There were three teams of minis (3 and 4-year-olds) for the first time ever. The coaches did an excellent job of teaching the new players good sportsmanship and the basic rules of the game.

The year-end tournament held on September 10 was well attended, the weather was beautiful, and the kids had a great day. At the tournament, a survey was available to complete and enter a draw for a chance to win free registration for their child for the 2012 season. The draw was completed at the meeting on October 5 and the winners were Lynton Whaley and Terry Ducharme. The survey provides the association with useful information as to what the players and parents want out of the sport. If you are interested in completing the survey to provide us with your feedback and recommend changes, please contact This email address is being protected from spambots.

On Saturday, October 29, at St. James Major Catholic Church Hall in Sharbot Lake, the soccer association is hosting a Hallowe’en Dance from 8PM – 1AM. Tickets can be picked up in advance at FitPlus Gym, Clement Road or by calling 613-279-2366. Tickets will not be available at the door.

Our first meeting of the new season will be held in January or February to start planning for another great year.
