The Richmond Hill District Minor Soccer Association is behind this international and already the town team coaches of the mosquito, pee- wee and bantam teams have been approached regarding billeting. Dates of the tourn- ament are August 9, 10 and 11. Les Trotman is seeking assistance from local parents and hopes for some positive results. Only three divisions will be rebresented, mosquito, peewee and bantam, as de- fined by the North York Minor Soccer Association. If anyone can help with billeting boys of 10 and 11 and 14 and 15 years, pre- ferably in 'pairs, please call Mr. Trotman at 884-6317. It has been discovered that two boys per home is ideal. Transportation is also be- ing sought for all three days. Any offers? Mr. Trotman will be pleased to hear from interested soccer fans of this town. Note â€" There will be 48 teams competing in this tournament, three from Brit- ain and one from Mexico. plus several from the United States and many Canadian entries. Richmond Hill will be rep- resented either by supplying two or three boys from each of the three teams competing in the North York League or, if one of those three teams happen to be at the top of the league as of Aug- ust l, the entire team will be entered. This will be an out- standing tournament. Please help us with transportation and billeting.
