The
Brockport Soccer Club is pleased to host its 15th tournament. The
tournament is sanctioned by USYSA and will feature over 200 teams
from across the eastern United States and Canada. Our goal
is to provide a fun and exciting soccer experience for all
players,
coaches and parents. The Brockport Soccer Club would like to
invite your club to participate in one of Western New York's largest
soccer tournaments.
The Town of Sweden along with the Village
of Brockport, located on the historic Erie Canal,
is a big supporter of the festival. Downtown Main Street
is decorated with soccer festival flags. Check out the
Erie Canal and the quaint shops in the Village of Brockport. Explore
the SUNY Brockport campus while you are here. Many out
of town teams take the hour drive to visit scenic Niagara
Falls. Hamlin
Beach State Park, on the shore of Lake Ontario, offers picnic,
hiking, and swimming. Our location on the west side
of Monroe
County provides visitors with easy access to malls, restaurants,
and many other attractions in the Greater Rochester area.
Plans for the 2008
Tournament are well under way and this year's features include:
While
you are there, stop by the Intense Milks booth where you can sample
their great-tasting chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry flavored milks,
learn about the benefits of 'Refueling with Chocolate Milk' , and
pick up a free 'Milk Mustache' poster featuring your favorite athletes
and celebrities. Intense Milk wishes
all players the best of luck and is proud to be a sponsor of The Brockport
International Soccer Festival.
On Saturday, July 19, 2008, at 7:30 p.m., we
will be holding our First Annual President's

Brockport High School Stadium Field. This game will feature our "highly
