On behalf of The Squamish Soccer Assoc. we would like to thank the 36 men's and 30 ladies' teams that played in the Squamish SoccerFest 2005 Tournament last weekend, April 23 and 24.

The weekend was a great success thanks to all of you and a good time was had by all. We would like to extend a huge thank you to our main sponsor Labatt's. Alex Earl, Territory Manager for Labatt's was instrumental with his knowledge and support.

Our other main supporter that was instrumental in making the weekend a huge success was Mother Nature - the weather couldn't have been better!

We would like to thank our local businesses for their sponsorship and support. The Sea to Sky Hotel with their sponsorship of the Referee Rooms, McDonald's, Carney's Waste Systems, Squamish Credit Union, Rental Networks, Guardian Trophies and Highlands Sport and Spine who all provided services that were greatly appreciated. The Sea to Sky Hotel, Mountain Retreat and Howe Sound Inn all provided discount rates for the out of town soccer players.

We would also like to thank our local RCMP for their presence and Victim's Services for The Safe Ride program and to all volunteers that assisted over the weekendwe could not have done it without you!

We will be working on more local sponsorship and support over the next few years as the tournament's proceeds all go towards our entire soccer community. The Squamish Soccer Assoc. is made up of a committee of nine volunteers, each representing a sector of the soccer community and therefore our entire community benefits.
