| Sportsmanship is our Practice, Soccer is our Game |
'Sportsmanship is our practice, Soccer is our game,'
Hunter Soccer Club teaches and instructs the children of our community in the exhilarating
game of soccer.
Hunter is one of the old, non-profit clubs in the Delaware Valley
and is one of the original founding clubs of the Intercounty Soccer
League. We are developing a new comprehensive player training and development program to build on our current intramural station training program. We will taylor coach and player training to appropriate age and gender needs, all based on established NSCAA guidelines.
Hunter tries to blend the teaching of individual skills while at
the same time instructing team tactics and strategies in the playing
of the game. There is great emphasis on team work, comradery, sportsmanship
and discipline. We try to blend all of the above together with a
backdrop of fun. |
| Brief History of Hunter Soccer Club |
Hunter Soccer Club began in 1962 as a response to a
call for physical fitness from the President of the United States,
at the time, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Originally called St. Luke's
Soccer Club, it was made up of a group of Cub Scouts under the leadership
of John Hunter.
John Hunter, a native born Scotsman, came to this country with
a love of soccer. He took St. Luke's Cub Scouts and utilized Abington
High School's fields and taught them the game of soccer with a volleyball.
Mr. Hunter received support from Episcopal Academy when they sent
Mr. Hunter their discarded shorts, shoes and equipment. He, along
with Hans Peters, helped form an Intercounty Soccer League some
40 years ago.
