Thank You Parents

By Joe Ulm

Thank you to every PSU parent for:

  • Clean uniforms
  • 42,811 rides to and from practice
  • 1,689 rides to and from games
  • 6 trips back to PSC or Armory to search for a forgotten ball, shin guard, jacket, hat, or water bottle
  • Buying a new ball, set of shin guards, jacket, hat, or water bottle when the item couldn’t be found (only to find it hidden in a crevasse of a backpack a week later)
  • Staying to watch the entire game even though its 40 degrees and raining
  • Car ride conversations that bring smiles, take the sting out of a tough loss, and build confidence
  • 106 rides to and from Player Excellence
  • Knowing when ice cream is the only answer
  • Back yard practice sessions
  • Being the best cheering section ever
  • Patience
  • Finding the left cleat under the bed 23 minutes before game time (after asking your son/daughter to check there 3 other times!)
  • Season-ending gatherings
  • Letting your son/daughter learn the difficult lesson when you’d rather just fix it for them
  • Letting them use the car to drive themselves to practice (but requiring they pick up their younger brother/sister on the way home)
  • Leaving work early to make that Wednesday game that starts at 5PM (What? There’s a game at 5 tonight? Who scheduled that??)
  • Hugs

Thank you for all you do, parents. There isn’t a single game, activity, practice, life-lesson, experience, smile, or memory that happens here at PSU without you.

United indeed.

street soccer

In our Street Soccer program, players have the opportunity to create their own teams, make their own calls, and unconsciously develop their technical and tactical awareness–all while expressing themselves with the ball at their feet. We believe players should be able to manage themselves and have the freedom to play, interact, problem-solve, innovate, and take ownership of their participation in the game. Teams are created the day of to promote diversity, and games are played without referees to reinforce positive conflict resolution techniques. Our I-Mentor coaches will supervise each field making sure that players and facilities are safe while maintaining a fun and challenging environment.

PSU’s Street Soccer is open to all 9U to 19U players. Our Old School Street Soccer is open to any parent, soccer coach, and their significant others. Bring the whole family!

Sign up required for waiver completion. But then just lace up and show up!
