Juggling Club!
OSC is continuing the popular juggling club again this spring. Players will work toward reward levels for the number of consecutive juggles they can perform. For each level achieved, players will receive a reward tag they can attach to their bag.
Juggling helps players improve their touch on the ball, allowing them to be more comfortable and confident when they have the ball. Plus, juggling improves a player's balance and concentration.
Top players dribble and juggle a ball every day!

U12 Boys win Jr State Cup Championship
A first half header goal by Andrew Kim off a corner from Aidan Antcliff held up as Okemos Soccer Club's boys beat SWM Kickers (Southwest Michigan) to win the 2016 U12 state championship.
It was a total team effort and a deserved victory. Stellar goalkeeping by Dray Chase and a rock solid defense led by John Moore, Will Swihart, George Meng and Issac Freidoff secured the shutout.
Tough ball winning and precision passing by midfielders Owen Brewer, Aidan Antcliff, Ben Hussey, Andrew Kim, Kaivalya Kulkarni and Ryan Wilkinson allowed Okemos to control possession.
Tireless work and unselfish play by forwards Ruben Gonzalez and Ederick Plantegenest kept the SWM defense under pressure the entire game.
With the win, Okemos becomes only the third team from the Lansing area to win a State Cup or Jr State Cup championship and the first community based team- since all players are from Okemos- to accomplish the feat.

Final Fundraising For Okemos High School Field Lights Project
Donations are being sought for an ambitious project to upgrade the Okemos Varsity Soccer Field. With a mission of creating a premier high school soccer facility to continue the legacy of Okemos soccer, the Under the Lights Soccer Project, will have two phases.
The first phase will be to install lighting and create a memorial to, and rename the stadium for, legendary soccer coach, John Picone. The second phase will be to install security fencing around the practice facility, relocate and upgrade the scoreboard and landscaping. The goal is to have both phases done by fall of 2018.
The project is long overdue according to varsity soccer coach Brian Guggemos. "Not many people realize that we're one of a handful of schools in the area without lights. East Lansing, Dewitt, Mason, Williamston, Grand Ledge, Holt, Lansing Catholic, Fowlerville, Charlotte and Eaton Rapids all have lights," Guggemos said. Although lights create a great atmosphere for games, there are practical reasons to add them. They include generating revenue with the ability to host CAAC Cup finals, district, regional, semi-final and state final matches and improved start times for families. "Right now, we have to start our JV matches at 4pm and our varsity at 5:30pm. That makes it tough for parents and community members to see games. "By adding lights, our JV games could start at 5 or 5:30pm and varsity at 6:30 or 7pm," Guggemos added.
As of Janurary 1, 2018, $170,000 of the estimated project budget of $230,000 has been raised. The rest of the money will need to come from local businesses, former players and the Okemos soccer community. The goal is to have all the money raised by February 15th in order to start work this summer.

If you'd prefer to make your tax deductible donation by check, make it to Okemos Athletic Boosters (put Soccer Lights Fund in memo) and mail it to PO Box 57, Okemos, MI 48805.
