Congratulations to the Killarney Phoenix U15 boys team which finished as provincial bronze medallists last weekend.

The team competed in the 2016 BC Soccer U13 - U18 Les Sinnott Memorial Boys Provincial Cup held in West Vancouver. The boys earned their berth in the provincials by playing in the finals of the Coastal Cup when they finished in second place.

The team completed the provincial tournament with two wins and a loss. They started off July 7 with a 5-2 win over the Prince George Timberwolves. The next day, they lost 5-3 to Surrey FC Avalanche before wrapping things up with a 4-0 win over North Van FC Surge on Saturday.

KYSA shared the third-place finish with the Nelson Selects.

Well played Killarney Phoenix! You did KYSA proud!

After a hard-fought match, the U15 Killarney Phoenix finished in second place at the Coastal Cup final last Sunday in Aldergrove.

They played hard and well, ending the first half tied 1-1 with Surrey Pegasus. But the Pegasus added two goals in the second half, winning with a final score of 3-1.

The Phoenix did Killarney proud with their exciting march to the championship final, which also earned them a well-deserved spot in the provincials.

Now it’s on to the provincials being held in July in West Vancouver where the Phoenix will represent not only KYSA but Vancouver. Well done, boys!

The U18 Booted Eagles (a U18 bronze team) is seeking a goalkeeper for the upcoming 2016-17 season. To be eligible, player must be a boy born in 1999 or 2000.

Congratulations to KYSA U15 Spurs who were co-winners in Vancouver Youth Soccer Association’s U15 division for the 2015-16 soccer season. The Spurs was among five teams that tied for first place as co-champions, a rare occurrence indeed.

The boys were led by coach Graham Parke and assistant coach Rich Li.

The U15 Spurs players are invited to the KYSA Annual General Meeting on Wednesday, May 11 at 7 pm in Room 202 of Killarney Community Centre. There, they will be presented with their 2016 League Champion medals and be recognized for their very successful season. 

Congratulations to the U15 Killarney Phoenix who are now headed to the Coastal Cup finals!

The boys earned their spot in the final with a hard-fought 4-3 win against AMF Storm in the semi-final last Saturday.

The championship final game of the Coastal Cup will be played at 9 a.m. on Sunday, May 1. The match takes place on the East Grass field at Aldergrove Athletic Park, on 29^th Avenue at 268^th St.

As if getting the chance to play for the championship title in the Coastal Cup finals weren't enough reason to cheer, the guaranteed Top 2-finish also means the U15 Phoenix automatically qualify to play in the provincials! That tournament takes place in West Vancouver in July. Stay tuned for more details.

Come on out to cheer on KYSA’s U15 Phoenix!

2016 Cup Champions U15 Gators

Congratulations to the U15 Gators who earned the championship with a 1-0 overtime win over AYSC Storm! 

The girls were one of three KYSA teams to compete at Cup finals last weekend. 

Both the U15 Phoenix and U17 Booted Eagles played close games but had to settle for second place. The Phoenix came back in the second half to tie the game at 2-2 but couldn’t keep the momentum going, eventually losing 4-2 to VUFC. 

With only 10 minutes left in the game, the Booted Eagles were tied 0-0 but weren’t able to hang on long enough to force overtime, losing 2-0, also to VUFC.

Three cheers to all three teams for making the Cup finals! You did KYSA proud!

Keep an eye on the U15 Phoenix, who will start their Coastal Cup run in April, in hopes of qualifying for the Provincials.
