Non-Profit Volunteer Based East Providence Youth Soccer Association Thanks its Volunteers for a Very Successful First Year of Operation
EAST PROVIDENCE - January 25, 2017 - The East Providence Youth Soccer Association was founded in February 2016 and launched its competitive Dragons soccer program in the Fall of 2016. During its short existence the EPYSA has held a very well attended summer soccer camp, two youth soccer academies and won several championships and a regional title. According to Bob DaSilva, President of the EPYSA, “This non-profit organization would not be where it is today were it not for a very enthusiastic and dedicated group of volunteers.” “It is an honor and privilege to work with our coaches and board members to bring a great youth soccer experience to our community.”
During the 2016 Fall Superliga Competitive Season the EPYSA Dragons fielded 12 competitive travel teams. During that session three of our teams finished at the top of their divisions. They are:
