First Soccer Trophy Case Addition in 25 Years

The first addition to the Westport Soccer Association trophy case at Westport Town Hall in 25 years was made today in a ceremony attended by Westport First Selectman Gordon Joseloff and members of the Westport Girls Under 11 Blue Soccer Travel Team. Last spring, the soccer team brought home a state championship in the Connecticut Cup. Under the direction of Coach Kristen Ryan from the Mickey Kydes Soccer Program, the team played upstate rival Suffield to a tie and in dramatic fashion emerged as the first Westport team to capture a Cup crown since 1986.  Members of the team came up through the Westport Soccer Association and have ascended to the highest level of town travel soccer.
