Frosty Festival Soccer Tournament

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 14:46:00 GMT

Hello Everyone:

For those of you who have not met me, I am Craig Dyer and I am a director of Mount Pearl Soccer. Sorry for the delay in the schedule of the Frosty Festival soccer tournament but we’re still trying hard to finalize the teams for this weekend’s event. If you haven’t already could you please confirm tomorrow with John Barron if your school has a team(s), as the clock is ticking. Then he can forward you the schedule.

We may have an issue with the weather according to the forecast; if it is cancelled we will have it announced on VOCM, and have a back up plan for next weekend. Could you forward John and I the contact information of your coaches so we can communicate with them during the event: names, email address or phone number would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support and cooperation.

Craig

Fri, 03 Feb 2012 10:16:00 GMT

On Friday, January 27 the Mount Pearl Sports Hall of Fame inducted another team to the prestigious Team Hounour Roll. The 1990 Mount Pearl Girls U16 Soccer team became the 6th team recognized for its outstanding performance on the Team Honour Roll.

Team Honour Role

Mount Pearl 1990 U16 All-Star Soccer Team

This team, coached by Ben Dunne and Jim Bulger, formed the nucleus of a group that went on to win more than twelve provincial and Atlantic awards over the following eight years. Many of the players excelled at university at the Atlantic and National level, with one of them (Raeleen Dunne Baggs) being chosen as the national collegiate player of the year. Others won Atlantic championships and made All-Star teams while playing at Memorial, Queens, Acadia, and University of New Brunswick. During the 1990 season they won the Provincial Under 16 Championship, defeating St. John’s in Marystown. They also won the Gunn Balderson Championship held at Acadia University in Nova Scotia. In the Under 18 Metro league they also won the championship. And at the National Under 16 tournament held in Mount Pearl and St. John’s, they had a very creditable record of one win, one tie and one loss. And many members of the team excelled in other sports as well. Members: Christine Huffman; Heidi Campbell; Nancy Jones; Nikki Myers; Debbie Hillier; Marcy Charles; Krista Chaytor; Lori Power; Jennifer Andrews; Natasha Dupree; Lori Milley; Gail Stockley; Lana North; Raeleen Dunne; Julie Bulger; Karen Martin; Michelle Menchinton; and Enid Huffman, Manager.

NLSA Referee development sessions

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 03:30:00 GMT

The NLSA's referee committee in combination with our CSA certified
instructors will be offering a series of referee development sessions
between January and March this year. They will be held every two weeks
on Wednesday evenings from 7-9 pm at the new training room in the
Glacier, Mount Pearl. These sessions are open to all referees, but are
designed mainly for those referees who have been refereeing at a senior
level for at least a year. They will also be of great interest to
assessors. They will deal with a variety of topics that go beyond the
instruction provided in the entry level courses. There is no cost.

These sessions offer a great opportunity to discuss refereeing, develop
refereeing skills, and to learn techniques that will help in your
refereeing in the coming season. They are also excellent preparation for
referees looking at promotion to higher levels.

The preliminary list of topics includes duties of the 4th official,
advanced AR skills, match control, advanced positioning, dealing with
confrontation, and recognizing challenges. we also hope to include a
laws of the game Q&A, an offside session, and a practical/ fitness
component.

The first session will take place on Wednesday, January 18th starting at
7 pm. Participants should bring along a copy of the law book, plus paper/
pencil for note-taking. If you ave any questions on these sessions,
please contact Dave Liverman atliverman@mun.ca David Liverman

MPSA Scholarships

Tue, 08 Nov 2011 03:30:00 GMT

Awards will be given to three (3) grade 12 students (currently 1^st year post-secondary) and two (2) grade 9 students (currently level l) who meet the requirements.

Each year the Mount Pearl Soccer Association awards up to five soccer scholarships. The players who have best combined scholastic achievement together with participation in the Mount Pearl Soccer program in a true sportsman-like manner will be awarded either a $100 or a $350 scholarship and an individual plaque recognizing their achievement. The names of the winners are also engraved on perpetual plaques which are displayed at the MPSA clubhouse. This year we are pleased to award four outstanding Mount Pearl students MPSA Scholarships.

Brian Sullivan Memorial Scholarship

This award was first presented for the 1983-1984 season. Brian was an outstanding young athlete who attended Morris Academy and Bishop's College in St. John's. The Mount Pearl Senior High School was not built at the time of Brian's fatal car crash (age 16 years). While Brian was recognized as one of the top soccer players in Mount Pearl, he also received recognition as one of the top figure skaters in the province. Brian gave 100% effort, 100% of the time and at the same time competed in a very sportsman-like manner.

Keith Burt Memorial Scholarship

This award was first presented for the 1987-1988 season. Keith was a speedy forward with several teams in the St. John's Senior League during the 1950's and 60's. He also played in the Mount Pearl Men's Senior League in the early 1970's and coached at the minor house league level. When Keith wasn't playing or coaching he was one of the MPSA's strongest supporters through sponsorship. (Paint Shop, Topsail Road)

Robert J. Woods Memorial Scholarship

This award was first presented for the 1983-1984 season. Bob Woods was a standout half-back (now called Mid-fielder) with the Holy Cross teams of the 1950's. Bob was a member of the MPSA executive from 1979-1981, a minor league coach, a player with the men’s recreation league in Mount Pearl, and a coach of the Mary Queen of the World boys team. Both of Bob's two sons attended school at Mary Queen of the World and participated in the MPSA soccer program.

Bob Breen Memorial Scholarship

This award was first presented for the 1989-1990 season. Bob Breen was an outstanding defender with Holy Cross Senior team during the 1980's. He has been deservedly described as a skilled, smart, hard working, competitive, sportsman-like player. To be a member of the Holy Cross team in the 1980's you had to be more than a good player. Bob was a team leader when Holy Cross competed in both the Challenge Cup and the St. John's Senior League. In 1981 he was a member of the Provincial team that represented Newfoundland at the Canada Summer Games. Notwithstanding a member of the Breen (soccer) Family, father Alf Breen and brother’s John, Bill and A.J.

Sam Pretty Memorial Scholarship

This award first presented for the 1985-86 season. Sam Pretty is a legend within the Newfoundland Soccer Fraternity. He is a member of both the St. John's and the Nfld. Soccer Halls of Fame. Sam played with Holy Cross of the St. John's senior league from 1942 - 1962 and was rated one of the best fullbacks in Newfoundland. He was also one of the original MPSA executives serving from 1973 - 1977."
