08 Elite Academy  Team and Player Highlight

Heart Hero for the American Heart Association

We love when parents send us awesome stories of Colorado United players. From Daniel Heck (parent at Colorado United) "I thought I would share that two 2014B Competitive players were recognized at an all-school assembly at Ford Elementary this morning. Chase Burke and Braden Heck were awarded the Act Respectively award for the 5 th grade. United is not only developing great athletes, but even better young men." Chase plays on the 2014 Boys Academy Blue team coached by Will Vint and Braden plays on the 2014 Boys Silver team coached by Morton Grubert. Another example of how our organization is "Developing Players For Life." Thank you for sharing this story and we look forward to seeing what Braden and Chase achieve.

Colorado United had a fantastic weekend. We have several teams to celebrate. State Cup Champions: Our 2010G Academy Gray coached by Head Coach Luke Baker - assisted by Brad Couse - defeated Albion SC-Denver 5-1 to claim the title. Presidents Cup Champions: Our 2009G Academy Blue coached by Chris Smith defeated Albion SC-Boulder County 3-2 and our 2011G Academy Blue coached by Marcus Narvaez defeated Westy SC 3-0 in PKs. Well done to all the champions for bringing home some well-deserved hardware and for qualifying for the USYS Far West Regionals in Boise, ID next June. We couldn't be more proud of all our United players. Well done, and we can't wait to watch what the rest of the season brings.
