Team Alaska Roster By Sport and Age Class
Team Alaska Bests Northwest Territories - 5 to 3 - Juvenile Male Soccer
This game was played in an interesting venue – a converted ice rink. The ceiling is quite low resulting in long kicks hitting the low netting and dropping. Rounded corners give a bit of “hockey feel” to the play if the ball hits the corners of the field.
Indoor soccer competition began this morning (Sunday) - most Arctic Winter Games competitions begins tomorrow (Monday). The "Juvenile age group" players are Under 16.
