Sunshine, soccer, and a BBQ. Not much gets better than that.
That’s exactly the day special needs players around the LIJSL had at the annual TopSoccer Friendship Cup on June 1 at Peter C. Collins Soccer Park.
During the course of the event, there were several rounds of games as well as mini-games provided by the New York Red Bulls. After players wrapped up on the pitch, they enjoyed a BBQ for lunch and received t-shirts and a medal for their participation.
The LIJSL would also like to thank the Long Island Soccer Referees Association, who provided volunteer referees, which contributed to the overall success of the day.
