Our NE Surf teams have been entered into the Thanksgiving Tournament hosted by NEFC. We took the opportunity to highlight some of our NE Surf teams that should be very competitive this weekend!

2008 State Sky: A new look roster for this team with high expectations for this upcoming year. They will face off against Seacoast United Maine Premier Blue, NEFC Metro Red and Seacoast United NH Elite.

They will look to continue where they left off this weekend. They will face off against: NEFC North Shore, Ginga SC and Rhode Island Surf! Darren Gallagher had this to say about his team, “We are excited to kick off a short season with three competitive matches at the NEFC Thanksgiving Showcase. These early games will give us a chance to get reacquainted as a team and to build towards our peak performance levels.”
