The Aurora Lions Club and Optimist Club of Aurora were grilling hamburgers and hot dogs all weekend, while the players battled it out on the pitch for town-wide glory.<\/p>\n<p>The first kick-off came Friday evening, with the festivities wrapping up at the U18 level around 5:30 Sunday evening. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt went very well,\u201d said Shameela Shakeel, VP of House-league at AYSC. \u201cEveryone was very much into it, both the kids and the parents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At the boys U13 level, Gold took a slight 1 \u2013 0 victory. In girls U13, Orange allowed only one goal all weekend to secure the championship. U15 boys had Orange defeating Green in penalty kicks after playing to a scoreless tie, while in the girls division Green took the title on penalty kicks.<br \/>\nGold took a 1 \u2013 0 win in the final over Newmarket\u2019s Red in boys U18, and Royal was the champion over Pink in girls U18.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, Shakeel called this year\u2019s house-league season a \u2018success\u2019, the first season she has presided over in the position.<\/p>\n<p>With the trophies all handed out, the AYSC is now looking for nominations for Coach of the Year. If you or your child believes a coach showed a high level of commitment and dedication to the team this year, you can nominate them at www.aysc.ca. <\/p>\n<p>The AYSC is asking for nominations for Volunteer of the Year as well, including managers, conveners, and anyone else who may have contributed to the success of the season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt takes the support of a lot of people to put together a successful soccer season,\u201d said Social Media and Events Coordinator Kim Warner. \u201cWe like to recognize those that willingly give their free time to help out both us and the kids.\u201d<\/p>\n<a class=\"synved-social-button synved-social-button-share synved-social-size-24 synved-social-resolution-single synved-social-provider-facebook nolightbox\"
