Real So Cal

Congratulations to the Real So Cal 18's Academy Team

Real So Cal U-17/18 Head Coach JULIO CASTILLO On winning third place at Finals Week: “We played loose. There was really nothing more to prove. We came here to win and we were unlucky by one goal. It’s ok though. Today [the team] was having fun. I was able to get the substitutes in and most them played the whole game. It was good.” On playing at Finals Week as a local team: “It’s great. It feels like home field advantage. We played a couple of games that were must win and we were in front of the crowd, the parents, the families. This is the first time the families have seen them play in such a showcase and the parents were surprised at the talent that the country has this much talent. They are very proud of this group.” On the Finals Week experience in general: “Awesome, just awesome. The team really enjoyed it. They had a great experience and I’m sure they’ll pass the word along to the little ones. That’s the key – bring the little ones along and get them better.
