2006 Manchester United Premier Nike Cup

 The U14/15 Vardar Boys enjoyed a very successful trip to Beaverton Oregon as they finished fifth in a field of twenty. Playing some of the finest clubs in the nation the boys displayed great commitment and energy compiling a 5-2 record while allowing only 2 goals against.

In the preliminary stages the Vardar boys won their group which consisted  of: Vardar, Scott Gallagher, Bethesda FC, Nomads FC, and the Irvine Strikers.

 In the quarter-final stage the boys lost a heartbreaker to the Arsenal in penalty kicks after a 0-0 draw. Showing great character Vardar came back to defeat So Cal United and the Surf to claim fifth overall.

 The Vardarstars organization is very proud the accomplishments of this group of young men who represented our club and state with great class and dignity.
