Geneva Celtic FC Wins Men's Open Cup

Congratulations to the 2007 Geneva Celtic FC Men's Open Team for winning the NSSL League Cup. Geneva Celtic FC is the St. Charles Celtics under-30 affiliate team. I would like to thank all the guys that were part of the team and helped win the 2007 NSSL League Cup. The regular season had its ups and downs compared the previous year but we were able to finish in 5th place (7-6-2) earning 23 points and then go on to win the Cup with a 2-0-1 record in group play, beating Chicago Dynamite 4-1 in the quarterfinals, beating Manzanilla 3-1 in the Semifinals, and then beating Chicago Celtic 6-4 in the Finals.
 

I  would also like to thank our sponsor, Old Towne Pub & Eatery in Geneva. They have been there all year for us with great service. They hosted the championship party for us following the game. It was a great time, good food and fun for all of the team members, families and friends. Once again congratulations and thank you all for a great year and I look forward to defending out cup title next year.
