Zehawi Soccer Fields at Stratton-Meyer ParkGreen River Spurs Soccer Association history:
The Green River Spurs organization stems from a history of great desire and need for soccer within the community. In 1985, Ahmed Zehawi and his family moved to Green River. Zehawi's upbringing and life experiences forged a love for the sport of soccer. Unfortunately, at that time, there was no soccer organization, team or place to play. Over the next few years. the desire to bring the love of the game to the area was promoted by Zehawi and the Green River Parks and Recreation Director, Roger Mollendorf. Within a few years, the Green River Spurs organization was born and named after a professional team in England. On October 4, 1997, the soccer fields created at Stratton-Meyer Park were named and dedicated to Ahmed and his family, now known as Zehawi Fields. The organization now hosts teams in both the Spring and Falls seasons, from U8 to U14 age groups and continues to develop and "spur" a lifelong love for the sport of soccer. Recent Email from Ahmed Zehawi: Green River Spurs, has been and will be always in my heart. My family and I had beautiful memories, the children we coached, the parents we became friends with, and the soccer fields GRS played on. It is just a great feelings to think back. I wish you all the best for the new season. We have been living in Houston Tx since we left GR in 1994. Ahmed Zehawi |
