We are so pleased to introduce new coaches and trainers for the Highline Boys HS age group Premier Teams in 2013-2014.  Technical Director TR Stoneback is stepping in to take the lead in the training of our HS boys players as they navigate the next six months through high school soccer and summer training and college showcasing.  TR is excited about the opportunity to work closely with the B97 team as they prepare to represent the State of Washington at the President's Cup Region IV Tournament in Boise, ID in June. 

Highline Director of Coaching, Maya Mendoza-Exstrom stated:  "I could not be more excited for TR to step in and provide some advance regional tournament training for our Boys '97 age group.  TR has a wealth of knowledge taking high level teams with high level players to high level events and preparing them to perform well.  That he will accompany the team to the regional event as well, speaks to TR's desire to see our HS boys shine.  These players are just entering the process to play at the next level and TR's experience in crafting player skill sets and honing talents will serve them well." 

TR will work closely with Highline Premier staff and a team coach to be named in the next few weeks.  Said Mendoza-Exstrom:  "We are committed to bringing back a talented cadre of Highline alumni who have played and coached at the high school, club, college, and professional level and are excited to name one of a short list to work with the Boy '97 in addition to TR.

For the Boys '96/'95 age group, Highline is pleased to name Joe Patterson as the head coach.  In one year since returning to Highline Premier, where he grew up as a player, Joe has quickly become a core part of the coaching staff.  While Joe has spent the 2012-2013 seasons working with younger teams, he is also very experienced in working with High School boys.  Joe will work side by side with TR Stoneback and with Maya Mendoza-Exstrom to faciliate a training environment that prepares our oldest boys to play at the next level. 

Said Mendoza-Exstrom:  "Joe is a ball of energy.  He is an exceptional technician, able to provide detailed insight into proper technique.  Joe challenges his players to be better physically, technically and tactically in every session and expertly balances establishing a disciplined learning environment where players trust and know that Joe cares about them and their development.  We are excited to expand his coaching impact within our club."

The Highline Premier Coaching Slate for the 2013-2014 season has been announced by our coaching leadership team.

In response to requests from our members at our Soccer Operations meeting, we have set up a "Director's Corner" page now available on the website. There will be more information added to this page as our directors continue to develop content.

The Directors will be placing content on this page such as the end of year Club Assessment, "homework" training information for your players, and healthy soccer lifestyle information. 

The first bit of content on this page is the Soccer Year Block Calendar set up for the 2013-2014 Soccer year. This adobe document is one that should help the families plan their activities throughout the year.

As the Boys 94 Blue team wrap up their Highline Premier soccer careers, we want to take a moment to reflect on their experiences.  We’ve asked a few of the longtime members to put some thoughts together as the Boys move onward. We are proud to share them with you all.

“What a great finish the ’94 boys had this year – finishing 2^nd in the league, winning that PACNorthwest tournament, and being runners-up in the Challenge Cup finals. What a wonderful way to close out their high school club career. It’s been exciting to see the boys develop as players over these years, and to see the team as a whole come together in such a powerful way. It testifies to the great work that Ozzy, Alex and Dan have done with the boys over these years.”

"Many of our boys have been playing together for several years, and have come together as a team to have an amazing end to their premier soccer journey. One of the best highlights from these past years was to see the Highline Premier Boys 94 Blue team win the PACNW Winter Classic after placing second in their fall season."

"It was only fitting that they also went on to be Finalists in the Challenge Cup during their final year. We have been blessed with many outstanding coaches all these years and have appreciated the interest and effort they have placed in our boys. The families and friends we have me mean so much to us."

Thank you Highline Premier Boys 94’s! 

Through a hard fought and tense battle against longtime nemesis Snohomish United, the Highline Premier Boys 97 Blue team captured the Virginia Mason Washington State Youth Soccer Challenge Cup Championship Sunday, winning 1-0 on a goal in the first half by forward Johnston Means. 

The boys capped a great tournament run of five straight wins with a solid effort for all 80 minutes and into stoppage time, when Snohomish had a late chance on a set piece that sailed just over the crossbar. 

In all, the boys only yielded three goals during the entire 6 games of the tournament, including two shutouts in the elimination rounds.

Great work Boys!

The Highline Premier FC Boys 94 Blue team took home the trophy this past weekend by beating ISC Arsenal 3-1 in the final of the 2013 PacNW Winter Showcase.  The boys played consistently well from beginning to end, conceding only two goals across 4 matches, and adding 9 goals of their own.  >> READ MORE
