Season Friendly, Hot Soccer and Town and Country

Town and Country's Warriors and Nautilus to come to Waco to play two Spring season friendly games with Hot Soccer's Waco Edge and Nitro for a first time Central Texas debut of teams from North Texas Soccer and South Texas Soccer playing regular season friendly games.

In an effort to promote youth soccer for older players and provide an adequate variety of age equal teams coaches from Waco Edge, Warriors, Nautilus, and Nitro worked together to coordinate these cross association games. Hot Soccer of Waco agreed to host the two Town and Country teams for these first season friendly game.

Such cooperation between associations is vital to the promotion of soccer in Central Texas. With older youth teams dwindling in numbers as players reach their teenage years it is important to be able to provide our youth players with a variety of competition to maintain interest in the sport of soccer. This variety in teams is only available through the cooperation of other soccer associations in surrounding counties.

With Waco being centrally located on the boundaries of North Texas Soccer Association and South Texas Soccer it is a unique opportunity to be able to have friendly games with teams from both associations. I hope that this is the first of many season games to come with our neighboring association and all the soccer organizations throughout the area.
