Music City FC brought home some hardware from Youth Nationals!!! Your boys in gold took home the silver in U14 and bronze in U16!
Couldn’t be more proud of these boys and the effort they gave this weekend. We were extremely short handed. Ten games, no subs in U16 and only one sub for U14, and all but one player played in both divisions. Exhaustion isn’t strong enough of a word. Still they fought to the very end and won the U16 bronze in a shootout after a hard fought game vs Utah. For the U14 finals game, while they defeated Chicago earlier in the tournament, they just didn’t have enough gas left in the tank and came out on top with an impressive win (congrats Floorball Chicago)!
The majority of this group returned to nationals this year after only winning one game in last year’s tournament. I know they’ll be back, hungry for more next year.
So many folks to thank; first and foremost Florida Vikings FC / Daniel Williamsson and family for hosting and putting on a very successful Youth Nationals tournament. It was the first ever with multiple age divisions!
To all the club coaches and organizers from all over the U.S., for pulling together such a talented group of teams to participate. I know how hard it is to organize a team to travel for these tournaments.
To all the parents for committing to travel and giving these amazing memories to your kids.
To Nathan Huddleston and Trent Kling for sharing your goalie gear, experience and knowledge with our goalie, Adyn. To Oleg Durbala for sharing your knowledge of the game and helping coach some of those tough games.
The boys had a blast and are ready to get back to work. We want the gold next year!! 💛
