Regional winners of the 13U through 19U age groups earn a berth to the 2019 US Youth Soccer National Championships, which will be held July 22-28 at the Toyota Soccer Center in Overland Park, Kan. We’ve worked hard, trained hard and came out with a quality effort today to advance to the quarterfinals.
“After falling just short last year on goal differential, we swore we never wanted to have that feeling again or leave fate in someone else’s hands. “We’re the little engine that could and feel like we punch above our weight class in a region that boast some of the best teams and clubs in the entire country,” continued Aertker. The road is never over even when you reach milestones and Aertker knows that in a region with such great competition, there is more work to be done. “It feels terrific to finally break through with a win and to advance to the knock-out phase.”
“This team has had four straight opportunities to be able to represent the State of Louisiana in the Southern Regionals and in three of the last four yeas we’ve been in a position to advance but have failed to do so on account of goal differential,” said Convington head coach S tephen Aertker. The 13U Boys and all of the 14U-16U teams will play their quarterfinal matches tomorrow, June 24, while the remaining teams will finish their quarterfinal games Tuesday, June 25.įor some teams the quarterfinals has been the norm through their teams tenure, but for Covington YSA Tigers 02/03 (LA), the quarterfinals has been elusive in its trips to Southern Regionals. Sunday brought an end to exciting preliminary games at the 2019 US Youth Soccer Southern Regional Championships at the Burbank Soccer Park in Baton Rouge, La., and Cajun Industrial Soccer Complex in Gonzales, La. The chase for the Regional and National Championship continues for the 108 teams who have qualified to move on from their preliminary groups.
