Coastal Program 2012.Pdf GREETINGS FROM THE MAYOR: On behalf of the City Council and the residents of Richmond, it is my pleasure to extend a warm welcome to all participants, coaches, parents, and spectators to the 2012 BC Coastal Cup Championships, being hosted by Richmond Soccer Association from May 5 - 6, 2012, at Minoru Park. Since 1953, the BC Coastal Cup Championships has been recognized as a prestigious event for all competitive youth soccer teams. 300 teams, consisting of 5,000 boys and girls, will compete to be crowned the youth soccer champion teams in BC’s Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. The top two teams in each division will later face-off in the Coastal Cup finals. Soccer is not only a fast and exciting sport, but it also develops new skills, promotes physical activity, and encourages teamwork and friendship. Sincere congratulations to those who have worked hard to organize this highly anticipated event. I wish all participants the best of luck, and hope that those of you visiting our City will have the opportunity to return. Malcolm D. Brodie Mayor BC Soccer heartily welcomes all players, coaches, officials, volunteers to the 2012 Coastal Cup at Minoru in Richmond! Coastal Cup features some of the best youth teams from the coastal and island regions of the province.
