Cleat Exchange: Labor Day, Sept. 5, 2011

posted Aug 16, 2011 6:30 PM by Paul Levy   [ updated Aug 16, 2011 7:19 PM by Charles Frankston ]



The semi-annual NGS cleat exchange will be held on Labor Day, Monday, September 5, from noon to 3pm at 59 Oxford Road in Newton Center.  (Returning exchangers should note the new address, different from previous years.)

Here's how it works.  Bring old cleats you want to trade in.  Try on those in our extensive inventory, and take what you need.  You can take new ones even if you have none to turn in.

This is a great chance to clean out your front hall closet!  Please bring old cleats to the exchange on September 5, or drop them off at 59 Oxford Road (on the front porch) anytime before that date. Click the image below for directions:

Watch the Newton Suburban Lightning this summer

posted Jun 6, 2011 9:37 PM by Charles Frankston

To the NGS Soccer Community:

On selected Wednesday evenings this summer through early August, make your way to the brand new Newton North High School stadium field, to catch some great high-level women's soccer.  We are very fortunate to have a top-flight Newton-based team -- Suburban LIGHTNING -- participating in the area's premier women's amateur league, the Eastern Mass. Women's Soccer League.

Suburban LIGHTNING are led by long-time NGS coach David Amidon.  The team serves as a summer training program for area inter-collegiate soccer players.  Many of these players grew up in Newton and are "graduates" of the NGS program.

The game is often the greatest teacher, and watching high-level soccer on a regular basis is both enjoyable and a very effective way to help learn the game and improve play.  So, grab your NGS players and come on out to Newton North this summer.  Matches kick off at 6:15 pm.  Suburban LIGHTNING's home opener is Wednesday, June 15th.  Home matches will be on each succeeding Wednesday evening through July.  The complete schedule will be posted shortly on the NGS web site -- www.newtongirlssoccer.org. (also see dates below).

For more information, visit the EMWSL website (www.emwsl.org) or contact David (damidon@burnslev.com) directly.

Home Dates:  6/15, 6/22, 6/29, 7/6, 7/13, 7/20, 7/27
