For all of those wondering, our team did make it to the States safely. Many are already down in Pensacola awaiting the start of our preseason on Wednesday the 7th and many others decided to return to their homes. Please continue to follow our progression as a soccer team on social media. Instagram: @eaglespccmsoc – […]
Our final ministry day consisted of a decent bit of travel up to Mikumi National Park. We traveled a few hours west into the inland of Tanzania to be able to play a 45 minute scrimmage against the Kumi National Park Game Wardens. After hearing about our recently advertised soccer matches in Morogoro, the game […]
On Monday and Tuesday we had very similar routines. On Monday morning, the Wyatt family showed us the town market. We enjoyed seeing the vast cultural differences and interacting with whoever we came in contact with. As we passed through the market we brought a couple soccer balls and started juggling the soccer ball with […]
On Sunday morning, we piled in our vans to Faith Baptist Church. The church had a soccer emphasis this Sunday.

Although some of the time we couldn’t […]

Many players on this team were called up to their particular country’s national team. We had a short practice in the morning (after breakfast), went to the stadium to help out […]

After more than 20 hours of flying throughout the past couple days, we have touched base in Dar Es Salaam.

One of our captains, Dakotah Barchus, discusses his expectations […]

This trip has been in the works for the past couple years, and we couldn’t have done it without the support of a few people. Special […]
