BEVERLY, Mass. - Last weekend, Endicott rising sophomore Sharlotte Pernice (West Springfield, Mass.) was called up from the United Women's Soccer (UWS) league's player development pool to play for the New England Mutiny against New Jersey Copa FC. In that match, Pernice entered the contest in the second half and played 40 strong minutes but the Mutiny fell to New Jersey Copa FC, 3-2.
Pernice and the rest of her Mutiny teammates will return to action on Saturday, July 23 versus the TSF Academy Valkyries at 4 p.m. at East Longmeadow High School.
About the UWS (via the league's website)
The UWS league was formed late in 2015. The charter members of UWS felt there was a gap in the development of the female soccer player between the collegiate game and the professional & international game.
A dedicated Tier 2 league was needed. UWS will fill that gap with a summer competitive season that will help the collegiate player evolve & enhance their game for fall competition while giving the post-collegiate player a chance to further develop for the professional & international ranks.
