Summer Soccer 2006

Got QUESTIONS about Summer Sports at Trinity? We've got ANSWERS!

Was Summer Soccer 2006 successful? Well, during the Autumn 2006 soccer season, Trinity Kids played on school, recreational, travel, and "just for fun" teams in such varied locations as Maine, Texas, New York and Florida -- and here in the Northwest Corner of Connecticut. The skills they sharpened at Trinity helped them in their soccer adventures, and we like to think that they benefited from Summer Soccer at Trinity in other, more important ways as well.
