Soccer supporters are asking for the public to give their input to an ongoing survey being conducted by the Oak Harbor School District.

The survey, which focuses on plans for future capital improvements, includes the possibility of the district building a new elementary school on its Fort Nugent property.

If that were to happen, it would likely include a substantial reduction of the athletic fields which are currently the home for youth soccer players from North, Central, and South Whidbey.

The current layout offers one of the few centralized spaces allowing for multiple teams from the entire island to practice, without the much-higher fees charged by schools to use their facilities.

Summer soccer tourney returns

Posted in soccer, tagged , , , , on April 25, 2023| Leave a Comment »

The booters are back.

After being knocked down by the pandemic, the North Whidbey Soccer Club’s annual Rock On! 3 v 3 tournament lives again this summer.

The popular event, which ran for 12 years prior to the Covid-19 shutdowns, is set for May 27-28 this year.

The tourney is open to players from age seven and up, with teams from on and off Whidbey joining.

Cost is $150 for a youth team and $175 for an adult team.

Youth teams play to the oldest player’s age group, while co-ed teams play in the boys’ division.

Trios don’t need a coach, but youth teams need an adult willing to “be in charge.”

Registration deadline is May 12.

Wanderin’ paparazzi John Fisken slid by a rainy, muddy Fort Nugent Saturday and captured the pics seen above, which show the Central Whidbey Soccer Club hard at work.
