Dear Alden Soccer Players and Parents,

In an effort to improve the skills and conditioning of our youth soccer players, I wanted to pass out some information regarding some of the off-season activities that are available.  Players at all levels will benefit greatly from any off season practice and competition.  Alden’s Youth Soccer (House and Travel) are always looking for dedicated players. See Mr. Ray Rebmann (937-9599) for Travel Soccer info and Mr. Mike Boling (13364 Park St. Alden, NY 14004).  In addition, consider the leagues and camps listed below. I have participated in several of the programs in the past and can vouch for their high quality.

The success of Alden’s Soccer Teams depends on player dedication and parent involvement.

Sincerely,

Coach Allen Turton IV
