The Boards of Directors would like to inform you of some of the work we have been doing to maximize your child&rsquo;s soccer experience. <br /><br />Both Boards believe that it is imperative that we continually investigate all opportunities that are available to maintain our status as elite clubs in Southeastern Pennsylvania. Most importantly, we must continue with our effort to maximize the playing opportunities and player development possibilities for all our players, and to provide a great place to play for all soccer players in the area, at every level. To do this, the Boards have begun talks to investigate collaborative strategies that will enable us to continue to grow our respective clubs and enhance your child&rsquo;s experience. As you may know, our two clubs already work closely with each other for the benefit of our players in the highly successful Penn Fusion program, as well as through other programs.<br /><br />At this time the discussions have been preliminary and have involved a sharing of various ideas for possible collaboration. Among the topics of discussions are: maintaining outstanding soccer experiences at a cost effective manner for every level of player, recruiting, training and maintaining outstanding coaches, and maximizing and maintaining optimum fields and facilities. Throughout the discussions, both Boards have been relying upon the thoughts and ideas of the Directors of Coaching.&nbsp;Although we do not yet know what if any forms of collaboration we may elect to pursue, we do believe there are many exciting opportunities worth considering.<br /><br /></span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt">Youth soccer is constantly evolving. To stay current with the latest changes and anticipated changes that</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-size: 10pt"> come from organizations such as U.S. Soccer, US Club, EPYSA, local, regional &amp; national level leagues we must be ready to have&nbsp;the infrastructure in place for all of our kids.
