To the editor,

On Friday, Aug. 31, the first annual varsity boys’ soccer Fall Kick-Off Classic will take place at Curtis Corner Middle School. 

This charity event will include a soccer double header starting at 5 p.m. with Narragansett vs. North Kingstown, and will conclude at 7 p.m. with South Kingstown vs. East Greenwich.

This event will be an annual charity game that will kick off the varsity season for the four local teams. Each year the event location will rotate amongst the schools, as will the charity being donated to.

This year the game will be in South Kingstown, with the American Cancer Society being the selected charity. All proceeds from game admission as well as from event t-shirt sales will go to a donation being made to the ACS in the name of South Kingstown teacher Missy Stark, who passed away from cancer this past June.

We hope everybody will come to support this great cause as well as watch some excellent soccer from our four local teams.

- Scott Rollins, South Kingstown head coach
