Midwest Soccer Championships Underway In Saginaw Township
June 21, 2019 5:05PM EDT
The U-S Soccer Region Two Midwest Championships got off to an excellent start at the Saginaw Township soccer complex on McCarty Friday .
Hundreds of teams from about 15 states with players ranging in age from 13 to 19 are competing as relatives, coaches and friends look on. Organizers say fields appear to be in good shape despite recent heavy rains and visitors are able to find parking which requires the purchase of a $5 pass. There’s no charge to see the games themselves.
Games will continue into next week with 14 teams crowned champions Wednesday before heading off to the national championships next month in Kansas.
