2014 HALL OF FAME INDUCTEES, AWARD WINNERS ANNOUNCED
The Southeastern Pennsylvania Soccer Hall of Fame (formerly the Philadelphia Oldtimers Soccer Association) has announced its 2014 class of Hall of Fame inductees and award winners. All of these recipients will be honored at our annual banquet on May 10th at Cannstatter Volksfest Verein in Northeast Philadelphia. This banquet is a great opportunity for the soccer community to gather, honor past accomplishments, and engage in productive soccer talk and networking.
SPECIAL CELEBRATION – In addition to our inductions and awards, they will be honoring all of our past inductees who have played soccer at colleges and universities outside of Philadelphia. We will also be presenting each with a commemorative gift. Last year we honored those who played inside Philadelphia.
