The u-18 girls matched their younger counterparts by claiming the FC Portland Premier Winter College Showcase in Oregon. This team captured the BCSPL league championship back in November and the players will be keen to maintain their form as they enter the final phase of youth soccer in the BCSPL.



“Both teams are to be congratulated for their undefeated runs at these two tournaments and for once again displaying an impressive brand of MUFC soccer,” said Mountain United FC technical director Frank Ciaccia.
