Around the Valley: With Karen Huwe

Come out and watch youth soccer

Waitsburg's team in the purple shirts are sponsored by Holce Law and coached by Dane Kiefel, Dayton's team is sponsored by Mead Ranch.

If you enjoy watching soccer, go out and support our local youth as they learn to love the game. Soccer is an excellent game for our area youth, and the players enjoy the great fall weather that has settled into the valley. On most Mondays, Wednesdays, and Friday, you can watch girls and boys play with smiles on their faces and determination in their hearts.

In Waitsburg or Dayton, games are played in three age groups. U6, U8, and U10, which translates to under age six, eight or ten.

The local league consists of teams from Waitsburg, Dayton, and Prescott. The teams play through the end of October. Volunteer coaches conduct practices where the emphasis is not on conditioning but practicing skills and teaching the young players the rules and the value of teamwork.

Bring a lawn chair and cheer on the players. You might not be a parent, grandparent, or family member of a soccer player, but your neighbor's or friend's child will be happy to see you there to support them. Plus, the kids are fun to watch. Enjoy the outdoors and catch a game. You won't be disappointed.
