The SWJ U-14 Girls' Team (Golden Thunder) has experienced great success, this season. From being undefeated in the Fall, to finishing the Spring as a Finalist in the State Tournament. However, due to their age, some of the young ladies on this team will be moving up to the U-16 division. Several parents have stated that they are already looking at other leagues, that offer a more competitive U-16 team; currently, SWJ is NOT an option. As coaches, we want to make SWJ the ONLY OPTION by keeping the core of this team together and forming a U-16 team that will play DIII (Recreational soccer) and DII. By signing this petition, you, the parents, are stating:
1) That you support the formation of this U-16 team that will play DIII and DII level soccer for the SW Jackson Soccer League
2) That you will allow your daughter(s) to try out and play for this team, if selected
3) That you support Coach Cook and Coach Riddley as the the coaches for this team

Watching the progress of our girls on the field has been the highlight of my year and keeping this group together is the only goal that matters to me. We are currently in ongoing talks with league officials to show them the depth of interest we have built. Your backing proves that this team is worth fighting for.

Seeing this level of support for the girls confirms that keeping this team together is the right path forward. I am incredibly moved by how many of you value the bond these players have built on the field.

We need this U-16 option at SWJ so we dont have to go to another league. The girls bonded so well this year.
Coach Cook and Coach Riddley have done wonders w the girls. Please don't break up this team!
Keep the team together!! They worked way too hard to have to split up now.
I agree that this team should remain together working to achieve established goals.
I really enjoyed watching the girls progress over the course of the season and I'm looking forward to winning that GOLD cup next year,
Go, Team!!!!
These girls deserve this opportunity!
