WPFC is very proud to announce that Brian Van Blommestein will oversee our two WSYSA Divison 1 premier girls’ teams. "Brian’s reputation in the college soccer world is huge," says Greg Ion, Administrative Director of Club Development. But, as important to WPFC as Brian is in helping players find the right college program, he will have the opportunity to continue to develop players with a great support staff." Ion continued, "As US Youth soccer evolves, so does the way we work with our players. Our USSF Development Academy brings 40 boys players together, and along those lines, now our senior girls’ teams will have the pool of players that is necessary to do more functional and positional training. This new training environment will challenge the players to take their individual games to the next level."
Brian will oversee the group with a great support Staff. Long time assistant coaches Matt Doyle and Bre Giove will assist with the two age groups as well as former professional player Bill Crook. Bill Crook was a professional player outdoor and indoor with the Seattle Sounders and the Tacoma Stars. Bill has a great history in coaching youth soccer and has been successful in building great youth teams as well as supporting players on to college soccer.
Tryouts for the U-17 and u-18 age group are tentatively scheduled for Monday May, 12 and Tuesday ,13. Please check back as we get closer to tryouts for updated information.
