A HOUSE RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND WELCOME TO SOUTH CAROLINA THE MEMBERS OF THE DELEGATION OF 1FFC MONTABAUR, A GERMAN YOUTH SOCCER TEAM, WHICH IS VISITING COLUMBIA DURING THE FIRST WEEK IN APRIL TO PARTICIPATE IN A YOUTH SOCCER CULTURAL-EXCHANGE PROGRAM.

Whereas, since 2003, 1FFC Montabaur, a girls’ youth soccer club from the City of Montabaur, located in the State of RhinelandPfalz, Germany, has annually participated in a youth soccer cultural-exchange program with Columbia United FC, South Carolina’s largest youth soccer organization; and

Whereas, in this exchange program, studentathletes from one of the clubs travel to the other club’s city, where they live in the host team’s homes, visit the host players’ schools, tour historic sites, attend cultural and sporting events unique to the host country, are educated on the host state’s and country’s systems of government and play “friendly” soccer competitions; and

Whereas, in this the seventh year of this annual youth soccer cultural-exchange program, the creation of lasting international friendships and good will among our young leaders of tomorrow continues, a practice that furthers the long-standing tradition of South Carolina and RhinelandPfalz’s promotion of a positive, lasting socioeconomic international relationship between the youth, the citizens, the businesses, and the governments of both states; and

Whereas, this year, 1FFC Montabaur will be in Columbia the first full week in April to participate in the 2009 exchange program; and
