POB Middle School Lighted Fields
Just an FYI- due to all the hard work and cooperation of POB Board members, PAL Board members and The POB School District we were able to offer both soccer and football children the opportunity to practice and train on this wonderful field. Again the partnership between these organizations to benefit the children of POB had been a long time coming and is truly a becoming a great working relationship.
With that being said, the fields are open from 6 pm to 8 pm and are scheduled through both POBSC and PAL Football. These team workouts are for scheduled teams ONLY, the fields are not open to private training or unauthorized use.
Thank you for everyone's assistance in this matter.

POBSC Is Going Small-Sided
POBSC is very excited to announce that the start of the 2009 Fall Season our Intramural Program will be going "small-sided".
From our Pee-Wee Divisions through our U8 Boys & Girls Divisions, with the help of our training organizations we have implemented the latest and most up to date training methods and game play instruction for all of our children.
Working closely with all of our own in-house training organizations, other soccer clubs and organizations both in New York and around the country, POBSC is the latest soccer club to join the "small-sided" soccer movement.
