*——————————————————————————————————————–*
This week’s Game Of the Week is a Division 3A League game.
It features current 1 vs 2 as Gorge Us-guys face Juan De Fuca.
Lots on the line.
The winner will be crowned Divisional Champion, they will also earn promotion to Division2, and will also receive a berth into the BC Soccer Provincial Championships for B Cup.
Should be an exciting game as both teams are eager for their season to continue.
When the teams met earlier this year in League play, it was a 4-4 draw.
Support local soccer, people that live in your community.
