State 48 FC hosted our 1st Annual ‘State 48 FC Club Appreciation Day’ on Saturday, April 4th at Gateway Park. The event brought our large membership of players, families, coaches and administrators from every area of the club (Recreational soccer, Competitive soccer & Path to Pro semi-professional soccer) together to celebrate our continued growth and the many successes that the club has achieved over the past season.
