Who's who...   Here are a couple of people you should know:
Noah Czarny is our program director, and many of you met him this fall. Noah is a 2008 graduate of Brandeis University, and he is a native of south central Connecticut. He has traveled and studied in many parts of the world, and he previously helped organize a soccer program in a South African township. We feel very fortunate to have Noah in the program.

Returning this spring to lead many of our on-field activities will be Clinical Director Exon Amaya. Exon is a 2006 graduate of Wilbur Cross High School, where he was a soccer and track standout as well as student council president. Exon is currently working towards his college degree and looks forward to a career in teaching.	Exon Amaya, Clinical Director, 2009-10.

Help Wanted!! We welcome volunteers in all capacities. We especially are looking for candidates to fill the following volunteer positions: Technology Manager. This person would help us manage our technology needs. Again, no soccer experience is needed. We would like to have a more sophisticated telephone system, and we would like to make sure we are taking full advantage of our web site. Equipment Manager.  Thanks Hannah Larkin-Wells for volunteering for this exciting opportunity.
