Despite the weekends’s weather conditions the Kickers Youth Elite Teams were still able to shine brightly.   There is plenty of reason to be excited as the U13 Boys joined the U13 Girls by advancing to the State Cup Final Four with a dramatic penalty kick victory over Beach FC.  In other quarterfinal action the U12 Girls matched up against an extremely tough Northern Virginia Majestics team and bowed out by a score of 2-0.  In VCCL play, the Kickers went 4-1-1 versus the Strikers before lightning brought an abrupt conclusion to the contest. This weekend’s performance now leaves the Kickers in a tight race with SOCA for the VCCL Championship.
