Some of the country’s top young female soccer players will
be showing their skills for college recruiters this weekend at Town Center Community Park.
The “College Showcase”
tournament features hundreds of girls from ages 14 to 17 who play for
teams from the West Coast Futbol Club, a professionally run youth soccer program based in Orange County.
The games
are being scouted by coaches from dozens of NCAA Division I colleges, including
Stanford, Harvard, University of Michigan, Notre Dame and University of Florida.
The West
Coast Futbol Club has 45 competitive youth boys and girls teams playing in the
Southern California Developmental Soccer League, which is aimed at grooming players
to compete at the college and professional levels.
The College
Showcase games, which started Thursday and will continue through Dec. 1, are
being played at Town Center Community Park as well as Balboa Stadium, UCSD and
the Arco Olympic Training Center.
