RIVER CITY ROVERS BACKGROUND
 
The River City Rovers has just become Louisville, Kentucky's first Premier Development League soccer team. Games will begin in the summer of 2011.  This team will be made up of approximately 26 male players, ages 17-30. The Rovers will showcase the best and brightest athletes who currently play for their respective club and/or college soccer teams, nationwide.
 
There will be 8 Louisville home games and 8 away games between May-August, 2011. It is planned that the home games will be played at one of Louisville's premier soccer stadiums.
 
Currently, there are 68 PDL teams in the U.S. and Canada. "The competition is fierce at the PDL level. This is as close to MLS as it gets," said Muhamed Fazlagic, Technical Director and Head Coach of the River City Rovers. 
 
Soccer is the fastest growing youth participation sport in the United States. Soccer is also the fastest growing sport in terms of fan viewership. In Kentucky there are over 40,000 registered youth soccer players, 6000 coaches and almost 100,000 soccer moms and dads spending countless hours watching soccer.
 
The competition in Kentucky is intense. There are currently over 40 competitive soccer clubs in Kentucky with over 20 located within a short drive of Louisville. Five of the state's largest are located in and around Louisville including United 1996 FC, Javanon, Louisville Soccer Alliance, Mockingbird Valley, and Oldham County Thoroughbreds.
 
Intense competition breeds excellence. In the past 10 years Kentucky soccer clubs have started to win at a regional and national levels. In addition to being recognized for the quality of our soccer clubs, individual Kentuckiana players have gone on to play for top tier Division One programs such as University of Louisville, Maryland, Northwestern, University of Kentucky, and Indiana University. For example, United 1996 FC's 22 graduating seniors last year all accepted positions at various college soccer programs. Other clubs have had similar success.
 
Our goal is to provide a showcase for young men who have achieved the recognition of being the best in their sport. We believe it is time for these young men to play on the same team, for their city, in front of their family and friends. Time for Louisville to have a team that represents this area in the top tier national Premier Development League.
 
Although the player's training and travel expenses are covered, they are not paid. This allows them to retain their NCAA eligibility while playing in a professionally run league. This will also provide these players with the showcase to be 'seen' by Major League Soccer (MLS) coaches. It is estimated that over 80% of the professional players in the MLS played in the PDL during their amateur career.
 
The Rovers will compete in the Great Lakes Region that contains many of the premier clubs in the country. Teams like the Chicago Fire, Michigan Bucks, Akron Metro FC, and Forest City London will be coming to Louisville this summer.
 
The Rovers Open Combine will be held January 7th through the 9th. The combine will be an open tryout for young men from 17-30 who want to make the team. To register, players need to go to our website and click on online registration. In addition to college players, both former professional players and foreign players are eligible to tryout. The goal is to pick the best 26 players from this area for the roster. These players, once selected, will be part of an elite training program complete with USSF A & B licensed soccer coaches, a goal keeper coach, and a strength coach.

USL News Release 
 
Thursday, November 18, 2010
 
TAMPA, Fla. - United Soccer Leagues announced today that Louisville, Kentucky will be the home of the newest team in the Premier Development League - the River City Rovers. The Rovers, with a 10-person ownership group, will begin play in the summer of 2011.
 
"We are very excited to bring the River City Rovers into the Premier Development League in Louisville," PDL Senior Director Jeff McRaney said. "It's a soccer-rich area of the country and the local buzz is already building. In addition, the ownership group has put a strong business plan together and will certainly create a great environment for a successful team."
 
River City will play a 16-game schedule between the months of May-August, with stadium and tryout information to be announced at a later date. Muhamed Fazlagic will serve as technical director and head coach and Thabane Sutu will serve as assistant coach.
 
An executive member of the Rovers, Pete Laventis, said the following: "Soccer fans in Louisville, GET READY! I'm not sure if people realize the quality of soccer in the Louisville area. In the past few years, alone, the competitive soccer clubs such as United 1996 FC, Javanon, Mockingbird and Oldham County Thoroughbreds have sent more than 60 players to top-ranked colleges & universities in the country. In addition, Louisville-area teams compete well in both regional and national competitions, and many currently are highly ranked in multiple age groups."
 
"The formation of the River City Rovers PDL team is the natural progression of soccer in this area. This team will have the ability to showcase the talents of the best players from all of the clubs, while allowing them to retain their amateur status for NCAA eligibility. Rovers games will provide the Louisville-area fans with the highest level of soccer experience, short of an MLS game."
 
A former college soccer player with a love for the sport, Laventis has served the past three years as vice president of the men's program at Louisville-based United 1996 FC, the Rovers' youth partner. United 1996 Futbol Club is affiliated with the Kentucky Youth Soccer Association and its teams are members of the Kentucky Select Soccer League and compete in the Midwest Regional League, the Buckeye League and other regional and national tournaments. Since its formation in 1996, United has grown to 29 competitive teams, training more than 500 players annually.
 
There are currently 40,000 registered youth soccer players in Kentucky, with approximately 25,000 of those being within a short drive of Louisville. There are 6,000 registered soccer coaches and 46 registered competitive clubs in the state, with four of the five largest located in Louisville.
 
"I am so excited to be part of creating this opportunity for local players who currently play for top-ranked national colleges," said Fazlagic, who founded United 1996 FC. "Now they'll be able to play for the City of Louisville at the highest level in front of their friends and family. River City Rovers is certainly a new and positive chapter in Kentucky and Louisville's soccer history."
 
The top U23 men's league in North America, the USL Premier Development League (PDL) featured 67 teams within four conferences across the United States and Canada in 2010. The PDL season consists of 16 regular season matches for each team, eight home and eight away, and provides elite collegiate players the opportunity to taste a higher level of competition while maintaining their eligibility. In addition to league play, PDL teams compete in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup as well as various exhibitions. The USL Premier Development League has proven to be an important stepping stone for top professionals now playing throughout the world.
 
Louisville businesses interested in marketing opportunities with the Rovers should contact Mary Nieto at mary@roverssoccer.com.

Edward Named PDL Player of the Week
Scored four goals in Rovers' 5-4 victory against Cincinnati


USL News Release

Thursday, July 21, 2011

TAMPA, Fla. - United Soccer Leagues today announced the USL Premier Development League Team of the Week for Week 11 of the season, honoring River City Rovers midfielder Albert Edward as Player of the Week after he had four goals in the Rovers' 5-4 victory against Cincinnati last Saturday, ending the club's inaugural home schedule on a high note.

Edward had a pair of goals coming into the game, but after Lwandiso Gonya had opened the scoring for River City, only for the Kings to take a 2-1 lead, Edward took over. He scored one in the first half and then added another three in 15 minutes following the break to give the Rovers a lead they were able to hold on to.

Orange County forward David Ponce also had a standout week, scoring a hat trick in the Blue Star's 6-3 win against the Los Angeles Legends, while Fresno's Tyler Reinhart helped his side secure a playoff berth and move to the top of the Southwest Division standings with a pair of goals in the Fuego's 3-1 victory against Southern California.

Other players had key contributions as their sides closed in on the PDL playoffs, which begin next week, with Long Island's Danny Kramer scoring the game-winning goal as the Rough Riders took a 2-0 victory against New Jersey to move on top of the Mid Atlantic Division, while Chris Tweed-Kent's goal kept the Carolina Dynamo on course for the playoffs in the South Atlantic Division with a 2-0 victory against Fredericksburg.

Juan de dios Ibarra had a goal and assist as Laredo kept up their pursuit of the Mid South Division crown, while Anthony Putrus also had a goal for 2010 PDL Finalist Thunder Bay as it defeated WSA Winnipeg 3-0 to remain in contention for the Heartland Division title.

LOUISVILLE, KY. -- Albert Edward scored four goals in a remarkable night of soccer that saw the River City Rovers win their last home game of the club's inaugural USL Premier Development League season 5-4 against the Cincinnati Kings on Saturday at Centurion Soccer Field.

The game began with an exciting start by the Rovers. In the seventh minute Ace Gonya scored the first goal with an assist by Ryan Smith. Cincinnati hit back quickly, though, as Kemar Jackson tied the game a minute later before Andre Sharpe gave the Kings the lead in the 19th minute.

Edward began his onslaught of scoring in the 37th minute off an assist by Sam Brooks, but the Kings again struck back through Alex Hadley to give them a 3-2 halftime lead.

That advantage would be short-lived as just two minutes into the second half Edward scored his second. He added his third and fourth of the game before the hour-mark, the final goal again assisted by Brooks as the Rovers took a 5-3 lead. The Rovers delivered a total of 20 shots on goal for the night, the Kings finished with 11.

The Kings pressed to get back in the game, Rovers goalkeeper Kees Heemskerk making a split-second deflection off a Kings free kick in the 69th minute. The Kings pulled a goal back through Dylan Lax in the 90th minute, but the Rovers were able to hold on to take victory, which also saw 17-year-old Peter May for his debut in the second half.

"We had more of the game in the first half, but we didn't convert our opportunities, and we committed a few defensive mistakes," Rovers coach Muhamed Fazlagic  said. "After the second half, we addressed weaknesses in the Kings defensive, and Albert Edward and the team beautifully executed the plays."

This was the final home game for the Rovers but if you are in for a road trip we have a couple of games coming up just a couple of hours away! Check the "Schedule" widget

Louisville, KY--The River City Rovers men's outdoor soccer team tied Forest City London 1-1 in last night's July 4th game at Centurion Soccer Field. Forest City is currently in 3rd place in the Great Lakes PDL Conference.
 
"The game was exciting and fast-paced," said Rovers Executive Director, Pete Laventis. "Forest City really had to contend with a tight defense tonight." The first half was dominated by Rovers defensemen Albert Edward & Hezekiah Weiss, with Edward scoring in the 23rd minute.

Louisville, KY--The River City Rovers men's outdoor soccer team of Louisville held the Indiana Invaders to a tied score of 1-1 in last night's game at Centurion Soccer Field.
 
With overcast skies and a humid temperature in the high 80's, the teams battled hard during the entire 90-minute match.  Rovers' were said to dominate the first quarter of the game. Invader #19, defensive Kerel Bradford, took a bad spill at the 17-minute mark, causing a 5-minute delay on field. Rovers' #30, keeper Matt Soyka, got tremendous height in a leaping save from a corner kick at the 42nd, only to be overshadowed by Indiana's midfielder, Adam Mena, who scored a goal in the 45th. 
 
The second half delivered even more excitement when Invader #4, Tom Morris, fouled Rover Ryan Smith, who was in a break-away that promised a clear shot on goal. The spill sent Smith sliding across the grass at least 15 ft. just in front of the Indiana goalie at the 69th minute. Refs granted Rovers a free kick and Albert Edward, # 18, scored the Rovers' tying goal for the night.
 
The Rovers' next home game is Monday, July 4th at 7pm against the Canada's Forest City London at Centurion Soccer Field (Christian Academy at 700 S. English Station Road, Louisville.) A full schedule of home and away games can be found using the "Schedule" widget below.

Louisville, KY--The River City Rovers men's outdoor soccer team upheld a generous game of soccer tonight in front of a hometown crowd of 336. "The Rovers really play a clean game," commented one spectator/local coach attending the match. "The Toronto Lynx just play with different tactics--they're good, but there's a lot of tackling tactics involved with their style of play."
 
The night began with an evenly matched defense between Toronto and Louisville. In the 25th minute, Toronto scored their 1st goal with a clean shot in the Rovers' net. The Rovers retaliated with 3 more strategic attacks before the end of the first half.
 
The second half was all action. 55 minutes saw excessive rough play and high footwork by Toronto while the Rovers repeatedly penetrated the Lynx defense line in front of their goal. Toronto's tactics backfired in the 71st minute when 2 players, #3 James and #6 McNamara, were given yellow cards for excessive roughness within two separate plays within the minute. A flurry of activity at the 78th minute allowed Rovers' Dustin Downey #8 to make a goal, but the attempt was over-shot. At 88 minutes, Rovers' Jarrett Robbins received his second yellow card resulting in a penalty kick and subsequent 2nd goal for Toronto. Final score for the game was 2-0, Toronto.
 
The Rovers' next home game is Friday, July 1st at 7pm against the Indiana Invaders at Centurion Soccer Field (Christian Academy at 700 S. English Station Road, Louisville.)
