The Aurora Stingers came out on top of their own tournament last week while hosting teams from across Canada and the United States at Sheppard\u2019s Bush and across the York Region.<\/p>\n

The U-13 boys team dominated the competition, winning 11 \u2013 1 against a team from Barrie to open the tournament. In the meantime, their U-16 counterparts were off to a perfect start after defeating their opponents 4 \u2013 0 and 1 \u2013 0 in round robin play. Both teams eventually took their respective championships.<\/p>\n

On the girls side, the U-13 team went to the semifinals after defeating both Milton and North Bay in their division. The U-17 division really showed off Aurora\u2019s soccer talent, with two Aurora teams facing each other in the final to guarantee a home victory.<\/p>\n

Started in 2002, the Aurora CanAm Challenge has developed into a mid-sized, very competitive tournament that has now reached 120 teams.<\/p>\n

It has been an exciting month for the Aurora Youth Soccer Club, with eleven coaches and executives earning volunteer service awards at May\u2019s Community Recognition Awards. <\/p>\n

The club is also looking for the public\u2019s help in creating a fresh new motto, with a contest running until the end of June and four tickets to a Toronto FC game on the line.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re looking for something that we can call our own,\u201d said Kim Warner, Social Media and Events Coordinator at AYSC, \u201cto unify our goals for the club.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the past, the organization played under the motto of \u201cA better place to learn\u201d; but now executives are looking for a more \u201cuser-friendly\u201d catchphrase by enlisting the public\u2019s help.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn terms of branding, we\u2019re looking for something that our members can relate to,\u201d said Warner.<\/p>\n

The contest closes on Monday, June 22, with the board of directors picking a winner out of the submissions. <\/p>\n
