WHAT WE LIKE:

The white-and-red themed homepage makes a striking first impression. Excellent choices were made in selecting the photos for the news slideshow. Current posts are streaming into the prominently displayed Facebook widget, and news and upcoming events are updated with fresh content.

NAVIGATION:

The four well-designed call-to-action budgets serve as a secondary navigation to the links in the banner.

Schedules, scores and standings are regularly updated for multiple age groups and divisions and combined in a singe-page format that is easy to read.

ABOUT, HISTORY, STAFF PAGES:

The About Us includes a tab element that opens with an Overview and includes History, Spirit of the Game and Diversity Statement sections. The Board of Directors page includes photos and bio information on each board member.
