Must Watch of the Week
By Daniel Nogueira

Ajax v. PSV | Dutch Eredivisie | Johan Cruijff Schaal | 7/30/22

Exciting preseason games are about to give way to many ‘22-23 seasons around Europe. Before I flood you with English Premier League highlights, I need you to watch this exciting 8 goal game out of the Netherlands! Many European leagues hold a one-time showcase match to ignite fans and offer teams a chance to win some silverware before the actual season begins – often called a ‘Super Cup’. In the case of the Dutch Eredivisie, league favorites Ajax Amsterdam host PSV Eindhoven to contest for the Johan Cruyff Shield. Out of the many Super Cups occurring this past week across Europe, this one was the most fun to watch. Enjoy Ajax’s recent heavyweight signing, Steven Bergwijn #7 – a cunningly clinical finisher transferred from Tottenham, and lookout for PSV’s young talent from La Masia, Xavi Simons #7 whose nimble movement is a pleasure to watch. If this match doesn’t have you doing chef kisses at the screen, I’m not doing my job!!

Coach Daniel’s Man of the Match: Guus Til #20 (PSV)

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!
