This year’s recipients are: Giuliana Criscuolo, Rafael Ramirez, Parker McNeil, Kino Rodarte, Jordan Azevedo, Matthew Quiroz, Jesus Conde, Ethan Bruch, Josue Arroyo, Milan Mendoza, and the entire boys U16 team (Aidan Cote, Reed Ellis, Apollo Espinosa, Tate Evans, Graham Ford, Breckin Germon, Dylan Granholm, Stefan Grossfeld, Sammy Komen, Cole Leshner , JP Montoya, Grayson Pope, Cameron Rauhala, Zane Schwender, Andres Sotelo, and Brian Terrill).
The club recognizes coaches for their leadership and selfless enthusiasm with the Scott Billington Memorial Award.

In addition to leading the soccer club, he also volunteered for the Solana Beach School Foundation and was a tireless supporter of the community. This year’s recipients are: Amber Evans, Stephen Cassar, Patrick Ferry, Joe Villassenor, Joe Klebba, Cole Leshner, Thomas Maurer, Levi Stratton, Carly Bazzett, and Jake Stratton.
