CDA Home Opener


September 21, 2011

Soccer Fans

Here we go.....let's get ready to welcome some international opposition to Del Oro High School.

Yes, it's the season opener for both California Development Academy teams as they prepare to take on the mighty Canadian Outfit, "The Vancouver Whitecaps".

"The Caps" who opened their 1st season in the USSF Academy last weekend, had an all MLS clash against Real Salt Lake and came away with an impressive 5-1 win in the U18 age group, and an unlucky 2-1 loss in the U16 age.

CDA will enter their 3rd season in the USSF Academy, and hope to keep building on their impressive first 2 seasons in which they have made playoffs twice in a row in the U18 age, once in the U16's, and graduated nearly 30 seniors into Collegiate Soccer programs such as Princeton, Cal Berkley, Virginia, San Diego State, Vermont, Seattle, UC Davis, University of San Diego, and Cal Poly.

CDA has also had numerous players invited into U18 National team camps, including being the only Academy program last year to have 4 players in the U18 national pool at one time. Connor Hallisey became the first CDA player to be capped by USA when he competed against Germany, Israel and France in Isreal last season. Seth Casiple and Grant Silvester were again named to the western conference starting 11 for the 2010/2011 season.

So come on out and cheer on some local boys Saturday Sept 24th.

Game times
U18's @ 12.00pm
