One of the club’s longest-running annual traditions, the Holiday Classic, took over the AHN Montour Sports Complex from Dec. 26-30, and once again the event was a successful celebration of soccer and a great way to keep players active during the holiday break.
Riverhounds Academy staff staged the 2024 edition of the event, which included 3v3 and 7v7 competitions in both boys and girls divisions, and more than 250 participating players.
Congratulations go out to all of this year’s winners, listed below along with the Golden Boot winner of each division, while a photo gallery from the week’s action can be viewed above:
