On Saturday, December 17th, we all witnessed a historic day at Hudson Sports Complex & Fox Soccer Academy, as we delivered the world's first-ever “Goalie Wars Extreme” event!
With over 50 goalkeepers competing from around the Tri-State area, we took the famous game of goalie wars and modified it to have three goalkeepers competing at once instead of two……..making it completely and utterly extreme.
With a U-10, U-12, U-14, and U-18 age bracket for this event, there were a total of four winners at the end of the day. The four winners of the inaugural “Goalie Wars Extreme” not only got to feel the roar and cries of the spectators but they also went home with an inspirational prize; Signed jerseys from New York Red Bulls & Charlotte FC goalkeepers: Carlos Coronel & Kristijan Kahlina.
There were tons of amazing saves, shots, reflexes, and creativity shown by our contestants this weekend that really inspired everyone who was on site. It wasn’t hard for our goalkeepers to find inspiration throughout the day, as they had a pretty cool fan watching them from start to finish……..Leicester & Austrian football legend, Christian Fuchs!
"It was great to see so many young goalkeepers giving their everything to compete. This has been a phenomenal experience for everybody, players, parents, and our staff who have put together this amazing event. With the music blasting it felt like a huge soccer party!", Christian Fuchs, Fox Soccer Academy Founder
Logan Kovach, the organizer of the event, is excited to engage more people who didn’t get to experience the craziness the first time. “Seeing players sprint back onto the field to play following the award ceremony is the best sign that the game was a success. And this doesn't stop FSA's team from our dedication to development; already discussing what made the first event a success, improvements to the game, and ways to make the experience even more EXTREME. Round 2 will be sometime before the Spring. Expect more playing time for everyone involved, more than 3 players on the pitch, attackers entering one another's Goal Box, and a new age bracket (+18)!”, Logan Kovach, Event Organizer
