Suburban Football Club

Here’s a great shot of the ladies of Suburban FC following last night’s televised Senior Women’s game against Dunbrack. The senior team played a great game surrendering only one goal to a very strong Dunbrack side. It was great to see all the club support for the team at the game.

Congratulations to the following winners of the Suburban FC pool held at the club’s World Cup event last weekend.

1 st Place goes to Logan Blinn – Winner of a Authentic Montreal Impact Jersey worn by Mesut Mert
2nd Place goes to Luc Poirier -  Winner of a Germany Jersey and an Adidas Game Ball
3rd Place goes to Pat Johnson – Winner of a Adidas Suburban FC Training top

Winners can contact the club at soccerinfo@suburbanfc.ca to arrange a time to pick-up their prizes.

Today was an exciting day for soccer fans around the world. The Spanish and the Dutch took the pitch to decide who would be crowned the World Champions following a month of  World Cup competition. Over 110 “Suburbanites” with their crazy hats, drums and vuvuzelas descended on Boston Pizza today to watch the world’s greatest game. After 120 minutes of exciting, card-filled play the Spanish sealed the deal with a spectacular goal in the 116th minutes from midfielder Andres Iniesta. There was lots of noise, cheering and a few tears at the end for the Dutch fans. A great time was had by all.

Congratulations to all the Suburban FC Girls who participated in the annual Gunn Baldursson Soccer Tournament this weekend. The U14 girls Tier 1 played to a 7-1 win over the Highland Knights to take the gold medal earlier today. The   U16 girls also brought home the gold with a 1 nil win over Valley United. Great job girls!

Everyone is invited to come out and watch the game on the big screen at Boston Pizza in Bayers Lake Park. There will be deals on food and snacks, prizes for the best-dressed, Fan of the Game and more. Make sure you bring your vuvuzela.

Suburban FC is proud of these players’ efforts this past weekend as they represented both their club and their province with class.

Suburban Football Club is out to a great start in its first year of operation. Six of our nine teams are currently in a top 3 position in NSSL league standings. Overall our club has more teams in the top half of the leader board than any other club in the league excluding DU who also have six. Our Senior men’s team is leading the league with a 4-0-1 record.

As we move into the summer months the club will be adding the skills training program to all team schedules. Our goal is to have a professional trainer run weekly sessions with each team focusing on individual player skill development. Challenges with field accessibility has created a short delay in the launch of the skills program. We have worked through these challenges and now have a firm schedule in place for the remaining summer months.

Our Golf Tournament Fundraiser is coming up on June 24th at Lost Creek Golf Course. We encourage all club members to sign up and come out in support of our Senior programs. Individual players are welcome. The cost is $150 per player which includes the green fees, golf cart and a steak dinner following the match with lots of great prizes. Please come out and support our club.
