Watertown Soccer Player Named to Youth National Futsal Team

By Charlie Breitrose | September 7, 2016

After traveling to Kansas for a tryout, a young soccer player from Watertown was selected to be on the U11 U.S. National Futsal team. 

Marc Kim recently received his invitation after a year long process concluding with the National I.D. Event in Gardner, Kansas. Futsal is a type of soccer played by five-a-side teams and often takes place indoors. “It is my pleasure to confirm that you have been selected to represent your country on the U11 U.S. Youth Futsal National Team,” wrote the staff of the Youth Futsal National team. Kim started playing organized soccer at age 7, and gradually advanced from town soccer, town travel team, camps to playing in an elite team in a local soccer club based in Newton. He got his passion for soccer from his father, O.T, who grew up in Germany, and has played his entire life.

    It was matinee-Saturday at the John A.

But, as they did last Saturday versus Stoneham,  Watertown/Wayland gave up two early goals to Melrose, and just couldn't figure out a way to light up the lamp on the way to being shut 3-0.
