College ID Camp will teach players an understanding of the 3rds of the field better (defensive zone, midfield zone and attacking zone).  It will help players understand positioning and the basic principles involved in individual and small-group play. 

Finally, College ID Camp will help players to think more than 1-pass ahead during play- fast, forward, and finding space to attack.   Participants will focus more on a possession-style of soccer.  Our staff will help explain and demonstrate natural patterns that maintain possession. We will work with each player to improve their timing, accuracy and confidence on/ off the ball.

Region IV Approves New Far West Regional League

US Youth Region IV has responded to requests from numerous elite teams and clubs by transforming its Far West Regional League into three (divisions) leagues and providing more opportunities to reach the Far West Regional Championships.  Under the new format, the three divisions will be the California League, the Four Corners League and the Northern League.

The California League will receive two qualifying positions in the FWR Championships and the Four Corners League and Northern League will each receive one position.  The leagues will develop their own plans for meeting the needs of the teams and clubs in their area under the supervision of the Far West Regional League.

"In the face of growing competition from all directions, it is clear the US Youth National Championship Series, of which the Far West Regional Championships is a part of, is still the most sought after competition for determining national champions.  The changes approved by Region IV will allow our state associations to serve the needs of our region's elite teams and clubs by providing the highest level of competition leading to a true national championship," said Ken Edmunds, Region IV Director.

Work will begin immediately in each of the leagues to prepare for implementation of competition in the Fall of 2013 and qualifying for the 2014 Far West Regional Championships.  Clubs and leagues interested in how this change will affect them should direct their inquiries to their respective state association or to US Youth Soccer Region IV at regionivsoccer@gmail.com.

Proudly displaying her Chicago Red Stars scarf, Bywaters said she is “blessed” and “humbled” as the No. 1 pick, and describes her feelings about playing with veterans such as Shannon Boxx.

“I’m looking forward to her aggressiveness and composure on the field. She could be a mentor towards me so I’m ready and prepared."

Zakiya played in Las Vegas for the Tabagators from ages 9-17.  Her former coach, Saeed Bonabian said, "I knew she was special and wanted her to realize it.  Once she did, I knew the sky was the limit.  She worked very hard on her skills and was determined to succeed."
