Basel with a dominant performance and a good display of unity with renovated squad 

FC Basel kicked off their Axpo Super League season with a full three points after they defeated FC Servette 1-0 on the opening day of the season. The Friday evening fixture was met with fair weather and a good reception from the faithful Servette fans in the French speaking region of Switzerland. FC Basel, despite several new signings and the promotion of some of their talented youth from their well-structured academy, fielded an experienced side with many familiar faces.

The Pumas Stay on Top and Collect The First Ever Ruffneck Cup

The Kitsap Pumas took all six possible points from their fixtures this weekend with two narrow home wins. Their first victory of the weekend came on Friday night against their Puget Sound rivals Washington Crossfire. In addition to the usual friction caused by the Ruffneck rivalry, the Pumas were also playing to claim their top spot and avoid any results that would be catastrophic to their contention for the first place finish.

Our Weekly Catch-up

Hello Soccer Boss Readers!
Wow! What a week! I was hoping to do individual posts for all of the incredible things that have happened, but due to a time crunch and some last minute trips to the doctor, this is the best I'm going to be able to do this week. Updates include some news regarding the Kitsap Pumas and some exciting news from Kenya!

We are Looking for Venues!

My co-president Lexi (L) and I!
Hello Soccer Boss readers! I went over this briefly in a previous post but I will say it again for first-time readers. I have founded a football club in Nehemiah, Kenya and we are in need of all sorts of things (including a president who actually knows what they are doing, if there are any takers). I was tempted to provide a nice, touchy-feely but extremely lengthy anecdote on this wonderful community and all that it has given me, but I will save that post as an epilogue to this one and cut to the chase.
I recently sent down a shipment of 16 boots, a ball pump and 17 soccer balls with my co-president to "get the ball rolling" for lack of a better term, but we are supporting a football club with several players of all ages and will accept as many donations as people can spare. We would have been able to collect more before the deadline, but asking people to drop off their donations at my house was too complicated and asked too much out of someone who was already going out of their way to help us. What we are looking for are local business owners who would be willing to allow us to have people drop off donations for the club at their shop, store, restaurant, building or whatever it may be rather than having to find me or bring it to my house, which is out of the way for many of the people who offered things up.
If you or someone you know owns a local business that would be willing to have a large donation box or posters advertising our interest in old soccer gear, please send them my way!
On a side note, I am also looking for a venue to host a large scale fundraiser for our club before the end of the summer or any time that we can arrange at their convenience.
