What's Happening In And Around Stars Academy

Your Stars Academy Player Of The Month

August marked the start of our fall season with the 2014 Boys Red team diving straight into their first tournament. The boys returned from the Brevard Hurricane Classic with two huge wins! These games featured some incredible performances, but one athlete, due to his hard work throughout the month and his outstanding contribution during the tournament, has been named your Player of the Month!

In his first full season as a Stars Academy athlete, Reid Staymates has shown his determination from day one. He attends almost every additional practice opportunity and consistently participates in small group sessions. This dedication paid off in the first tournament of the fall season for the 2014 Boys Red. At the Brevard Hurricane Classic, Reid contributed to 2 tournament wins, scored 1 goal, made 1 assist, and we cannot forget his 5 nutmegs.

"He is undoubtedly one of the loudest and hardest-working players when he steps on the field. Reid pushes not only himself but also continuously offers positive feedback to his teammates. The impact he leaves on the pitch goes far beyond just what he can do with the ball." —Coach Kevin

Congratulations, Reid!

We Have A Burger?

...And A Meatball Sub?

We're thrilled to announce that Vanbarry's Public House and Ollie's Public House are featuring us on their menus this month!

Proceeds from September's Good Burger and Good Bite will benefit your Stars Academy!

The burger, aptly named "The Academy," and the sub, named after Coach Conner's favorite soccer team, AC Milan (Rossoneri), are both delicious ways to support our program.
