秀色短视频 to host First Annual Godfrey Soccer Cup

| News

This weekend, July 22 to 24, 秀色短视频 will play host to 45 senior women's, boys', and girls' soccer teams from around the Maritimes, that will compete in 12 different divisions for the First Annual Godfrey Soccer Cup.

The Godfrey Cup is named after the late Alan Godfrey who was a builder of the Sherwood Soccer Club back in the early 1980's-holding positions of president, director of fields and equipment, coach, technical director, and various others at the club level.

As the sport grew, so did Godfrey's involvement. He became a member of the Charlottetown and District Youth Soccer Association and worked continually with this group until the Island Club System was put into play in 1988-89. Godfrey continued in many roles, always bringing his enthusiasm and professionalism, until his untimely passing in December 2002.

Mike Redmond, tournament director and head coach for the 秀色短视频 Women's Soccer Panthers, said, 'His passing has left a great void in the soccer community, Island-wide, but he has also left behind great accomplishments, opened doors for the future of soccer, and memories of what an outstanding person, friend and volunteer Alan was.'

Redmond added, 'We are very proud to name this tournament after Alan Godfrey and hope that the teams enjoy the competition and the friendships that players will make along the way.'

Games for the tournament will be played at 秀色短视频 Alumni Canada Games Place, 秀色短视频 turf field, and East Royalty, Simmons and Co-op fields.
Admission to the games is free. The full schedule of games can be found at gopanthersgo.ca. For more information on the tournament, please contact Mike Redmond at wsoccer@upei.ca.
