ANNA MARIA – After an action-packed summer in The Center of Anna Maria Island’s gymnasium, the youth indoor soccer season came to a close last Tuesday night with the parents teaming up against the littlest ballers in the league.
Teams Cloud Pest Control and Wash Family Construction combined talents to verse the parents in a fun game of indoor soccer on one hard pitch while the Sandbar Restaurant and Mac Parkman Foundation teams came together against their parents.
Coaches Karri Stephens, Jillian Ptak and Brooke Svoboda not only played against their talented and enthusiastic players, but also cheered them on in the all-for-fun season-ending games.
Using the skills learned during the season each week, nearly half of the players will be moving on to the bigger indoor pitch next indoor soccer season, aging out of the U6 league.
The summer season finishes with players in U13, U9 and U6 leagues having enjoyed the fast-paced fun of indoor soccer.
The Center looks forward to starting its first season on the reconditioned outdoor fields to start the fall sports season. The players of the summer sport will take some of what they learned during the past two months onto the grass pitches during the next soccer season.
