The South Shore Soccer Club is excited to announce the Club’s Winter 2019 Player exchange with the Lions Gibraltar FC.

For the past several years, the South Shore Soccer Club (https://www.southshoresoccerclub.com/) has been cultivating strategic relationships that would truly benefit our players and community. One of which is with Lions Gibraltar FC (http://www.lionsgibraltarfc.com/football.html)

The culmination of hard work, dedicated training and this strategic relationship, has enabled an opportunity for Erika Murray, Mikaela Benchimol, Danielle Walsh, Alexa Carseni and Faythe Fifield to be selected by the club’s Coaching Team, lead by UEFA ‘A’ p1 licensed coach Adrian Parral, to travel to Gibraltar during the month of February, 2019

The South Shore Long Island, NY based Lions United FC teammates will train in Gibraltar and play several friendly matches in Spain with the Lions Gibraltar FC Ladies Senior Team.

Follow the club’s Facebook page, @southshoresoccerclub, for player updates and highlights from their trip. Matches will be streamed via Facebook Live as well.

Original founded as the West Babylon Our Lady of Grace Soccer Club in the ‘70s, The South Shore Soccer Club has existed as a youth, community based, soccer club for nearly 5-decades. Bringing recreational and competitive levels of play to the south shore of Long Island. In 2017, the South Shore Soccer Club introduced the Lions United FC Academy to their members and community.

Lions United FC was formed “to look at the path of player development differently as well as bring a higher level of training and play to our members and community. Led by our Club’s Vice Presidents, Joe Bianco and Joe Stango, I’m so proud of all our volunteers and their annual charity efforts, the nearly two dozens College Scholarships we issue every year as well as their countless number of community engagement hours. Our volunteers are the backbone that keep our club running day-by-day. Starting in 2017, with the expansion of our services to include the Lions United FC Premier Teams, our community South Shore Soccer Club now has an affordable high quality Academy. We are uniquely positioned to truly have a place for every player to play” said their current club President, Robert Fifield.
