A Flagstaff-based youth soccer team is continuing its historic season next weekend. The Flagstaff United Soccer Club (FSC) U14 girls team, after winning its first Arizona State Cup -- a prestigious club soccer tournament -- in April, is set to play in the Far West Regional beginning June 23 in Boise, Idaho. What the players, coaches and families believe is even more impressive than the play on the field, though, is FSC's fundraising efforts. The Far West Regional is a seven-day tournament, and each of the girls and their families have to incur the cost of travel, food, hotels and everything in order to play. In all, through sales of shirts, knocking on business doors and all sorts of other fundraising tactics, the team raised about $18,000.
