Futsal Friendlies – November 3
Pilots Athletics is excited to announce that a series of futsal exhibition games will take place in the Rick Down Athletic Centre (RDAC) on the campus of Prairie College, this coming Saturday November 3rd 2018. The Portage College Voyageurs (Lac la Biche, AB) are coming to Three Hills for these friendlies as they prepare to enter the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference (ACAC) in the sports of soccer and futsal. The opportunity for our Pilots futsal teams to compete with another growing program was something the program could not pass up according to Prairie’s Director of Athletics, David Petroziello.
“The idea of hosting Portage for these four games was definitely an intriguing one when they first brought it to us. Any opportunity our student-athletes have to compete against programs at similar stages of development is one where they can continue to grow while testing their skills. We look forward to their visit and to some exciting futsal action.”
The first game begins at 1:30pm as the men’s Pilots and Voyageurs will begin the day. This game will be followed by the women’s teams at 2:30pm. The men will square off again at 4:30pm, and the women will wrap up the day with the final match beginning at 5:30pm.
Admission is free. All games will be streamed live. Link will be available here soon.
