A big thanks to the 7,000 plus participants and spectators at The Fresh Coast Beach Soccer Championships. The tournament has brought a lot of friends together with inspiration, action, and time to get to know one another better. We appreciate the high flying bicycle goals scored by youth and the Men's Open players, especially to the Fresh Coast Beach Soccer Champions, Shoreline Beach Soccer Club. The team embodies the spirit of the game by practicing regularly, sharing the tactics and strategies they know with other teams, and hugging the opposing team after the match. This dedication and good sportsmanship is the true meaning of beach soccer!
We want your shots, saves and people to be recognized on our website! Those pictures and video clips show us the great goals and celebrations that were made and great saves and plays that kept the team in the game. Send your pictures and videos to info@beachsoccerchampionships.com or submit a CD to P.O. Box 330180, San Francisco, CA 94133.
