Members of the UV Lightning U8-U9 team proudly showing their support of Grassroot Soccer on opening day.
Grassroot Soccer and the Lightning Soccer Club have formed an exciting new partnership beginning in the Fall of 2009, with Grassroot Soccer emblazoned across the front of all Lightning uniforms this season!
But the connection between these two organizations has been around for a while, with Grassroot Soccer CEO Tommy Clark himself an alumni of the Lightning SC program, and his father Bobby Clark was one of the founders of the Lightning Soccer Club. An Upper Valley institution since 1983, Lightning Soccer plays throughout New Hampshire and will help reinforce GRS’ message and raise awareness wherever their teams compete this season.
In addition, Lightning SC will be hosting a number of events throughout the year in support of GRS, including a number of Lose The Shoes tournaments in the Upper Valley.
Grassroot Soccer and Lightning SC would like to thank Nike for their support of this partnership.
