BOSE A « ' 20 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wed., March 14, 1979 Scugog soccer set to kick off another year 48 by Danny Millar Registration for the coming Soceer season began on February 15th and already the Scugog cer Club has 110 member At this time last year they had 30. Club President Brian Yeo attributes the rise in popu- larity to the international acceptance of the sport. "I think one of the reasons is that people are beginning to realize that soccer is a world-wide sport and is one of the healthiest group activities," he stated. The club is part of the Durham Ontario 'Youth Soccer Association. For the last few years the Port Perry minor soccer program has been affiliated with the Uxbridge group but this year they decided to initiate their own organization. Mr. Yeo says that every 'town in Scugog Township is interes- ted in having a team in the Club. In addition, the Club's executives were purposely chosen to represent all parts of the township. The Vice- President is from Blackstock (Eric Brown). Maureen Yeo is from Port Perry and serves as registrar. Jim Callen, the treasurer, is from Scugog Island. The sec- retary is Elaine Willerton of Seagrave and League vice- president is John Rodway. Don Forder and Barry Page are publicity manager and equipment manager, respec- tively. Each team will average one game a week for the duration of the season which begins in mid-May and ends in late September. The games will be played in the New Scugog Soccer Park.

The park has four pitches and was achieved with the aid of the Scugog Council. it's located on Simcoe Street north of Regional Road 8. The team will be coached by volunteers and officiated the same way. Each parent or person that coaches will be required-to spend four hours a week. Mr. Yeo sees no major problem in getting these people. "It's always difficult to find volunteers. Right now we need coaches and referees. I feel we will have them." The Club president out- lined the aims of the Port Perry soccer program. "We want to foster the sport of soccer and bring it to boys and girls of all ages." He expected about 160 players to register but with the early] success feels the number will exceed two hundred. He called the growth of soccer in this area, "phenomenal." Last year Port fielded nine teams but this number will grow. . The age of the competitors ranges from five to eighteen. _.An interesting innovation has been set up for the five to seven age group called '"'Mini-Soccer." The basic differences are that- the field is half size; there are seven players to a side; and the goal nets are smaller. Yeo explains that "Everything is scaled down to the size of the child, not 'the other way around." Apparently this has been tried in England and Vancouver. Mr. Yeo outlined the bene- fits of the sport, claiming that itis a very athletic sport without the body contact and injuries of hockey and foot- ball. Also it is very economi- cal: "In soccer the only piece of equipment the parents have to buy are the soccer shoes. Everything else is supplied by us." Yeo is in the first year as club president and is thrilled by its success here. "I'm very pleased with what's going on. The enthusiasm is growing in leaps and bounds. It makes it all worthwhile. I can feel it growing - It's really a great feeling," he concluded. 7 weeks.) " 1979.
