TONASKET – The Youth Soccer Association’s season ended at an all-day tournament in Chief Tonasket Park on Saturday, May 22 with 48 teams participating from Oroville, Tonasket, Omak/Okanogan and Methow.
“This was our third tournament and each year, it seems to get bigger and bigger,” Andrea Field, association organizer, said. “We had a great turnout with well over 450 kids playing and not including the parents and families that showed up to give their support.
