In St. Louis Missouri we saw some intense matches over the hot July weekend. Our officials managed ECNL Boys U13, U14, U15, U16 and U17 matches. Officials Management Group brought in national referee coaches Craig Lowry, Aby Okulaja, Ali Saheli, and Scott Weyland to continue educational sessions throughout the tournament. St. Louis was so hot, that ECNL even split up the games to the early mornings and the late evenings in order to prevent burnout in our players and officials.

U13 final - R. Bradley Church, AR1 Nancy Camarillo AR2 Payton Webb, 4th official Sage Pfingsten

After a long weekend of competitive soccer and brutal mid-summer temperatures, our staff at OMG walked away with a successful trip. Officials returned home with sunburnt faces, a greater understanding of the game, and having met at least one new person.
