Prince William Soccer Teams Headed to National Championship

Three youth teams from Prince William Courage (U15 Boys, U17 Girls, U18 Girls) have qualified for US Club Soccer’s National Premier League Finals to be held July 9-13 at Grand Park in Westfield, Ind.

NPL Finals is the culminating event of a year-long, league-based competition among qualifiers from 19 regional leagues around the country. It will feature more than 6,000 players from 150 teams representing 18 U.S. states.

Founded in 2001, US Club Soccer boasts member teams from all 50 states, while sanctioning more than 400 tournaments annually. Through its player-centric mentality, USCS has produced numerous elite youth players who have matriculated to professional leagues and top NCAA Division I teams.

A prominent member of U.S. Soccer Federation and sponsored by Nike, all of US Club Soccer’s programs – recreational, competitive and adult – are able to be united under one organizational umbrella, creating a “members for life” culture within each club.

Prince William Times – For Heather Payne and her family, paying their annual car tax bill has been difficult. Together, she and her husband owe about $600 a year on two older cars, one of which is a 2014 model.

The Paynes have five children, and they’ve struggled since the pandemic. Payne said her husband was laid off from his job in sales, and she has juggled up to four jobs at a time to pay the bills.

Now, Payne has two jobs but she and her husband are still behind on their car tax payments. In June, she was surprised when her wages were garnished to pay the bill.
