by
Mike Mallette
The
2001 Champions of the Valley East Soccer Club (VESC) were declared
during a playoff weekend held in August for the 1200 players and 75
teams which formed one of the most successful seasons ever.
Special
thanks go out to Moncion’s Your Independent Grocer for their ongoing
generous donations. Due to
Linda and Marcel Moncion’s commitment to the Valley East Soccer Club, events such as the playoff weekend prove to be a major
source of fundraising for the club.
Thanks to Tim Hortons for sponsoring the Under 6 Divisions and
all individual team sponsors who have made this season such a success.
A special note of thanks to Norstar Gas Bar in Val Caron and
Ecowater for their contributions. The Valley East Soccer Club also extends its sincere
appreciation and recognition to
all convenors, coaches and volunteers
who donate countless hours of their time to help in every facet of the
club’s operation.
The
City of Greater Sudbury is to be commended for the excellent field
conditions and maintenance. Toppers
Pizza catered the banquet and medal presentations
were held on the field under canope tents Sunday evening.
