A message from Bruce Hamilton, President of Boston Area Youth Soccer

Please Observe a Moment of Silence this Weekend

In case you weren't aware, Martin Richard, the 8-year old victim of the Boston Marathon bombings was a member of Dorchester Youth Soccer. In response to this senseless violence and the impact it has had on our soccer community, BAYS suggests that a moment of silence occur before every game this weekend in observance and out of respect for Martin and all of the victims of this tragedy.

Sincerely,

Bruce Hamilton, BAYS President

Kicking Back Comments: While I currently do not have teams or players in BAYS, you can bet I will honor this request during my matches this weekend. I invite all others to do the same, regardless of sport, regardless of affiliation, regardless of anything, please take a moment and reflect.
