Of late some more information has come out on this historic bid due in part to the tourney growing. A good deal of what US Soccer did put out is repetitive, but if they felt it worth repeating who am I not to follow suit but in a much more abbreviated fashion. A total of 41 cities between the 3 North American nations put forth their interest for the World Cup bid. As we had informed earlier, this fall the first short list is to be worked out with the final bid due to FIFA by 3-16-18 with 20-25 cities.
An all women's international soccer tourney comes to Bkly. 9/19 from 4:30-10p.m.. The teams in this event must of course play soccer, however there is a greater goal involved here. Each team chose a global goal from those set forth by the United Nations who are involved with this happening, so if one did not do enough no matter how good the team is, one wont advance too far.
Straight from Cosmos staffer Ryan Sawyer to you. 2nd yearly event coming at you.
Soccer Long Island Magazine is happy to announce that we will be doing a series of youth soccer clinics througout the area and awarding to winners of skill competitions a pair of tickets to this international youth tournament for ages 10-12.

Until I figure out how to post video here, there are many videos and some more photos of the events surrounding the recent USMNT game at Red Bull Arena on the facebook page of Soccer Long Island Magazine. There are ones done by us as well as from U.S. Soccer and Wazee Video.
I won't go so far as to say the USMNT played uninspired soccer last night at Red Bull Arena in their first "NY" game in forever but there was no fire until Duece came on. The instant offense he supplies cannot be expected to make up for 2 goals in under half an hour now can it?
Just completed is a conference call with April Heinrichs, the Technical DIrector for the girls academy, Miriam Hickey the Girls Academy Director and Jared Micklos the Academy Director.
