"A Tribute to Robbie Owens"
Welcome to the 2009 Bridge Invitational!
"Charleston’s premier spring tournament"
T-SHIRT PRE-ORDERS DUE BY FRIDAY, 4/18
The tournament is hosted by the Bridge Futbol Alliance, SC’s only US Soccer Development Academy franchise club. Over 150 teams will be representing more than 40 soccer clubs from throughout the eastern seaboard.
Springtime in the Lowcountry (coastal SC) is always worth the trip. For three years running, Charleston has been selected as a "Top 5 Destination" in the US by the travel industry. We invite you to make your spring 2009 tournament plans for Charleston. (see website link below for more on the Lowcountry)
This year, the Bridge Invitational will also serve as a tribute to Robbie Owens who passed away tragically last summer. Robbie played for the Bridge FA USSDA Academy U18 team and West Ashley HS. The tournament will be assuming a new name in 2010, the Robbie Owens Memorial Soccer Tournament. A memorial fund has been set up in his name.
