Sporting CT Members,

We are honored to announce that starting in the fall of 2022 we will award two Sporting CT female athletes with The Gianna Rose Vincelett Scholarship at her family request.

Gianna Vincelett was a member of the Sporting CT 2007 Girls team. Her family is funding a soccer scholarship with Sporting CT in her name because they believe that, like Gianna, children whose families may not otherwise be able to afford it should be able to play soccer at the Premier level.

Gianna loved her Sporting teammates, and their families and other children should be able to enjoy all that Sporting CT has to offer: competitive soccer, great coaching and a family oriented environment.

This scholarship may provide full or partial coverage of Sporting CT’s yearly fees. You can apply by competing the attached application form and returning it as specified.

*Please note – Scholarships are provided on a yearly basis. Upon completion of the soccer year families must reapply/ be reevaluated in order to receive support again.

Hello everyone,

Please find bellow information from Gia grandparents Skip and Debby. We can thank you enough to all our Sporting CT families and others that are not part of our club for reaching out to us and asking how everyone can help Vincelett family in this difficult time.

If you can please donate to the fund set up in the Gia memory.

Regards,

Sporting CT Board of Directors.

To our Sporting CT soccer family,

Thank you for the outpouring of support in the past few days. Gia’s friends from soccer and basketball and their families have all reached out to us. We feel thankful that we were able to attend a gathering of Gia’s teammates on Sunday to see the girls and their parents. After many tearful moments initially, everyone was able to begin to remember Gia as the happy, energetic, funny young woman that she was. We hope this gathering helped the girls as much as it helped us. Goran, Andrei, Dylan, Emilie and Frank also attended and we were very glad to see them.

Gia’s mom, Megan, is planning a celebration of Gia’s life in the upcoming weeks. We think it will be held on Friday, August 20^th.  As soon as the details are finalized we will let you all know. Megan wishes to have one celebration for everyone Gia touched in all aspects of her life. Everyone will be invited.

We have set up a memorial fund at Liberty Bank in Haddam. We plan to use the fund to support a soccer scholarship at Sporting CT for a deserving female player and hopefully for a female soccer player from Haddam-Killingworth High School who is going on to play in college.

Donations can be sent to:
