Corporate Sponsor of the organization  as announced July of last year, the success of the Men’s National Team, the Matao, continues to rise.  With their recent victory in the AFC Challenge Cup Qualifiers against Taipei, defeating Taipei with a strong 3-0 win, there holds much promise for the islands soccer stars on an International level.

This Saturday, April 13th, from 1PM to 4PM at the AK Chevrolet Showroom, an event will be held to celebrate – the Road to Victory Event featuring some players of the Matao and Coach Gary, Technical Director at GFA and Head Coach of the Matao.  There will be autograph signings and the public will have a chance to participate in some Amateur Soccer Skills Contests for a chance to win great prizes.

Immediately following the weeks, younger members of the GFA with their U-14 Boys, also known a the Mini Matao, will be leaving to China to participate in the AFC U-14 Championship Qualifiers in Beijing, China playing teams from China PR, Northern Marianas, Korea Republic, and Chinese Taipei.

Members of the media are welcome to feature this story as the start of a continuously growing action packed year of soccer, an increasingly popular sport on Guam and abroad. Chevrolet works to Find New Roads within the sport of soccer locally as the official training facility goes through renovations and the brand adorns the fields and pitches with prominent and innovative branding displays.

All media in attendance will receive more information about the partnership with a warm and welcoming appreciation from AK Chevrolet and GFA representatives.
