If it seemed pretty quiet in your neighborhood Saturday morning, it's because all the activity was on the Bay Area Soccer Association's (BASA) soccer fields!

The Monitor Township soccer fields were also the host to the Bay City Elks Club 2nd Annual Soccer Shoot, that was held Saturday, September 10th from 10am-1pm.

The Shoot consists of two different contests that test different skill levels of different ages.

A "Five Goal Contest" consists of a series of five goals, decreasing in size from 48" to 17". Divided into two age groups up to age 10, the contest is open to boys and girls.

The "Grid Goal Contest" for ages from 10 to 13 years of age, is a full size goal sectioned off so points can be scored as to where the ball was kicked.

The Elks Soccer Shoot Program supports this fast-growing popular sport, for helping keep youth focused on positive activities and for helping keep children fit and active.

The BASA fields are located at 4189 Monitor Rd., Bay City, MI 48706. For more information regarding their programs, check out www.basasoccer.com
