In 2009 when Dr. Dru Hauter
approached the Lincoln City Council and asked to use a portion of
city-owned property behind the Wal-Mart Supercenter, not everyone
in Lincoln and Logan County realized just how big a sport soccer is.
In reality soccer is one of
the biggest sports in the world. While it has only in recent
years taken hold in the United States, it is growing quickly.
The Lincoln Futbol Club has approximately 70
kids participating.
Sunday afternoon it was
estimated that participating kids at the all-age game day totaled
around 400. Teams are set up by age level and start with
those under 8 years of age. The oldest teams are the U12, or
under the age of 12. Pictures by
