Kaua’i Soccer Association held Boys Under 12 soccer games March 3 at North Vidinha Field. While these are boys teams, some of the more advanced girls will play with the boys teams along with their girls teams. Team Onipa’a (white) beat the Kaua’i Extreme Striker Boys (yellow) 6-0. Despite heavy rains on other parts of the island, the rain held off long enough in Lihu’e to allow the games to be played – but in very muddy and slippery conditions (see photos 5 to 9).
