Region 8 AA-A Finals set

I am the head coach of Covington, and I know the district/regional tournament is a problem for those in East Tennessee. West Tennessee soccer is getting better, more schools are getting programs started. I took over this program two years ago and since that time, I know just in this 40 mile radius that three high schools have just started soccer programs. Give us time, there are athletes that can run over here but fundamental soccer will take some time. Starting Club Soccer, Middle School Programs, and improving Rec. Leagues are in development. For now, enjoy playing the best that we have in USJ, Madison, McNairy, and JCS.

We appreciate what you are doing out there. I, for one, am always in favor for any improvement to TN soccer as a whole. Good luck this season, and we look foward to the teams that the west will bring to the table in the future.
