Battling the cold and rain,
76 teams including 34 Boys and 42 Girls teams convened at Tranquility Park Soccer Complex in Omaha from October 5-6, to participate in Nebraska State Soccer's annual fall recreational tournament for U9's - U14/15's.
Despite the scary weather, the Fall Rec Cup tournament was still a fun and successful event, thanks in part to some very resilient soccer players, dedicated coaches, supportive parents, robust referees and spirited tournament volunteers!
The Fall Rec Cup tournament is open to ENSA, CYSL or In-House teams from Nebraska. The team that traveling the furthest were the U10B Kearney Hurricanes. Other Fall Rec Cup teams hailed from Bellevue, Bennington, Blair, Columbus, Elkhorn, Fremont, Lincoln, Omaha, Papillion, Ralston and York.
U9 and U10 players all took home participation medals, and U11 - U14/15 teams vied for 1st and 2nd place awards.
