Soccer Ole 3v3 tourney in Memphis area July 23rd


Recommended Posts

Hello Tennessee! I'm inviting all Tennessee soccer players to come to Olive Branch, MS (a southern Memphis suburb) for a 3v3 tournament that Soccer Ole is putting on July 23rd. It’s the first ever soccer tournament allowed on the pristine Olive Branch fields. It took us a year of working with the Mayor and the Board of Aldermen to get this approved. By the time it finally passed, it made it a short notice tourney. We really want to show the Mayor and city officials how important soccer can be to the community. We need this tourney to succeed. If there is any way you folks can come to Olive Branch and bring a few teams with you, that would be awesome! We would love for you to come here and play against the Memphis area teams. We even have some teams coming in from Little Rock. The competition should be good!

 

We will have full concessions, A BBQ trailer (they were the 2nd place finisher in the shoulder division in the Memphis In May BBQ contest), McAllister's Deli will have a tent there selling sweet tea and cookies, a fruit stand, a vendor selling toasted and flavored pecans, a sporting goods retail tent and hopefully a vendor selling boiled peanuts. I'm even looking into a misting fan to cool everyone down. It will be a first class tournament at a first class facility… a great time for families and players alike!

 

Olive Branch has a lot to offer. For the adults, we are 30-45 mins away from the 9 Tunica casinos. We are 30 minutes from Beale Street, and 25 minutes from Graceland and the Memphis Zoo (rated #1 in the country by Mobil Travel). It could be a fun getaway weekend for the family. More information at www.soccerole.org, or visit our facebook page at www.facebook.com/soccerole. Please give it a look. Thank you for your consideration.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
