WHAT IS A BOOSTER?
The boosters of Sailor Soccer play a vital role in raising money to suppliment the school funding of the soccer program. We provide college scholarships, equipment, team meals for district games, trainers for tournaments as well as paying for part of the coaching staff. Several fundraisers are planned each season and parents and players staff these events.
Past boosters have raised funds to light the fields and make field improvements. Our current goal is to put a permanent structure on the site to house the concession, player changing room and restrooms. Currently, $70,000. is available for this project and bids are in the works.
Please contact Lori Webster at loriwebster8911@msn.com if you have questions and can be an active Booster this year.
**IMPORTANT NOTE -2009 will be the last year for several active members who will be 'retiring'. This is your last opportunity to ‘learn the ropes’ before they leave.
