PRESS RELEASE – After playing a tough match under the hot sun in Week 5 of the Triple J Auto Group Robbie Webber Youth Soccer League, players from the Community First/Days Inn Dededo Soccer Club Gold U10B team looked forward to post-match refreshments at the Guam Football Association National Training Center.

“We all try to play our best during the games, so after we play, I like it when we get snacks,” said 9-year-old Ian Aguon, a student at Finegayan Elementary School. “My favorite part about playing soccer is the feeling when the ball gets close to the other team’s goal and you know you have to kick it in to score for your team.”

Aguon began playing soccer last year after his mother, Irene Tedtaotao, encouraged him to join. This season, Aguon’s younger brother, Izick, 5, also started playing. “Luckily for me, their games were one after the other and not scheduled at the same time, as I had volunteered to bring snacks for Ian’s team today,” Tedtaotao, 29, said. “In our club, parents choose a Saturday to bring snacks for the team and it’s well-organized so the kids always have something to eat and drink after they play.”
