Winter Futsal
Portland Futsal is registering teams for the Winter season. Futsal is a great way for kids to hone their ball handling and passing skills outside the game on the big field. Futsal in indoor soccer without walls. The ball is smaller and heavier than the field soccer ball. I have attached some FAQs from Portland Futsal and an article that has great information about the game. For more information go to: www.portlandfutsal.com or contact Paul Lomanto at 503.2.FUTSAL weeknights after 5:45pm or email paul@portlandfutsal.com.

Peeling Uniform Numbers Resolution
Mt Tabor Soccer Club Families:
It has come to our attention that several of the Mt Tabor Soccer Club jerseys purchased from Score It Soccer in the Fall 2010 have peeling numerals on the back. We want to let you know that John Fewkes from Score It has committed to fix all of the defective jerseys at no expense to our families. The numbers are heat pressed on the back and John was unaware that his heat press thermostat was nearly 30 degrees too hot. The excessive heat damaged the numbers.

Mt Tabor Soccer Club/Portland Timbers Adopt a Club Most Outstanding Player Award and Runner up
First of all, thank you to all the coaches who took the time to submit a nominee for this honor. We appreciate how difficult a task it is to pick just one player from your team that stands above the rest. Our Mt Tabor Soccer Club (MTSC) board members voted after Soccerfest and it was a very close vote from a list of players who were all worthy.
Availability of MTSC Uniforms
Score It has the MTSC uniform available for purchase and they are ready now! John has numbered about half of them. So, if you want a specific number on the back, get in early while there are blanks available. PLEASE do not wait until the last minute to get your uniform. You will likely be disappointed with the choices in sizes and numbers if you do.
