Looking forward to this soccer alliance and opportunity for Oconee County youth to get better without having to travel across the state every weekend Sincerely,  Dan Matthews From: wbyce@oconee.ga.us To: Date: Thu, 5 Apr 2012 14:10:02 -0700 Subject: Oconee Soccer Alliance Dear Youth Soccer Parents: OCPRD and the Oconee Futbol Club are announcing a partnership to form the Oconee Soccer Alliance (OSA).  OCPRD and OFC have previously coordinated for field rentals and tournament hosting but will broaden the scope of the partnership by the formation of OSA that is designed to consolidate quality Recreation, Academy, Classic and Athena play in the community.  Building on the strength of one of the largest youth soccer recreational programs outside of metro Atlanta and an established and successful Select club program, OSA will look to enhance coach training and individual player development by offering coach training clinics, player camps and indi...

Oconee FC Indoor Soccer | Oconee Futbol Club

Any Oconee County soccer or baseball playing families who have not done so should check out the well maintained athletic facilities hidden behind Westminster Christian School here off New High Shoals Road just outside the 441 Bypass very near Watkinsville. The Oconee County Futbol Club calls this their home field this season, and the quality of play is light years ahead of the similarly aged Oconee County Recreation Department level of play. Of course playing elite traveling teams from closer to Atlanta often means your team will get stomped with near World Cup level passing and kicking on corner kicks, it also means that some day your youth could be that proficient as well. The 7 on 7 soccer works well on the smaller fields of Westminster Christian, and it will be interesting to see if that translates well to the five viable High School sports programs in the next five to 10 years. I formerly lived just down the road from this school and it is interesting to see how it has evolved...

If you or your children are at all serious about playing and learning advanced soccer and want to take the next step locally beyond the excellent Oconee County Recreation soccer programs, then I can recommend Oconee Futbol Club. My son decided he does not want to play soccer this spring, so we are not joining this league. There was an attachment to this that undoubtedly contained lots of forms to fill out, and if you need them then send me an email and I can forward them to you. Woven brightly, Daniel J.

Be patient with parking, access and egress at Oconee Veterans Park and the neighboring Herman C. Michael park tonight and most week nights for the next month and a half or so. Woven brightly, Daniel J. Matthews, Jr. From: tlathrup@oconee.ga.us To: danmatt@hotmail.com Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2009 11:22:22 -0700 Subject: 2009 Fall Activities Greetings, Receipt of this e-mail indicates you are a parent of one of the approximately 1250 kids involved in one of the seven OCPRD fall 2009 youth programs. We sincerely hope that not only your childrens, but your whole family's experience this season will be rewarding and fun. With such a large number of children and families involved in fall activities it can make for some busy practice and game days often filling our parks to capacity. Add in over 400 kids from Oconee County Little League and the Oconee Futbol League soccer group who also utilize our fields and it is easy to see how gym and field space become quickly limited. Today mar...
