Expo 2007

Virginia Legacy Soccer Club is excited to announce its first annual Williamsburg Cup Expo on Saturday, September 1st. The Expo is a great place to spend the time in between tournament games. The fun starts at 9:00 AM and runs until 5:00 PM at the Warhill Sports Complex site and admission is FREE. The Expo has something for everyone:

Food and Drinks: Why travel all over town for lunch when you can get a great meal at the Expo? Concessions will be available for sale in the Expo Food Court, including sandwiches, snacks and drinks for all tastes. Ryan’s Deli, located at the WISC, also offers a full menu of hot and cold items, made fresh daily and reasonably priced. Pre-ordered pizzas will be available to be picked up inside the expo at a time of your choosing. Click Here for the Pre-Order Pizza Form...

3 vs. 3 Player Joga Bonito Tournament: The spirit of this exciting mini tournament is to remind players to “play from the heart.” Teams of three players each take the field, which has been reduced in size to maximize the action and accelerate the pace of play, to compete for honor and the love of the game.
