Bruno Fundraiser - A Huge Hit!

On a misty evening in Barrington, the Rhode Island Country Club played host to the Annual Bruno United Dinner-Dance Auction Fundraiser, May 2nd.  Members and friends of the club donated in excess of 92 items for auction.  The special guest for the evening was National Team Defender and Rhode Island native, Michael Parkhurst.  Mr. Parkhurst spent a great deal of time talking individually with club members, and also gave an inspirational speech about his experiences in youth soccer and the opportunities that it presented to him.  Between the procurement of sponsorships and auction sales, the club raised close-to $17,000.00.  These funds are an essential part of the club's financial viability and many thanks go out to all of those who contributed to make the evening such a success.  Attendance at the event exceeded all expectations, with over 200 guests in attendance. 

Northeast Sub-Regional Leagues Wrap-Up

The Boys U-15 and U-17 teams wrapped up their league seasons in the Northeast Sub-Regional League this past weekend with the distinction of FIRST PLACE in their respective divisions!  Coach Purcell's Under-17 team ended the season with a 1-1 tie against Yankee United Real, which was enough to see them secure first place in the Red Division of the Sub-Regional League, based on number of goals scored.  The Under-15 team has stayed dominant all season long in the Northeast Sub-Regional League (Red Division).  Coach Daley's squad retained first-place with a hard-fought 1-0 victory over South Central at Milot field on Saturday afternoon.      The Boys U-14 have played hard and have endured a steep learning curve in the Red Division of the U-14 League.  Some positive signs of progress have been made, particularly with some solid performances against Blackwatch RI and NH Classics. The boys will be looking to end strongly when they travel to Seacoast United.
