Hi MYS Sporting CT Family, 

Coach Carl Lombardo was inducted into the CT Soccer Hall Of Fame on April 2, 2022.

We are happy to have coach Carl work with our players and to be part of our club.

Congrats Coach Carl we will always support you and be thankful for everything you have done in the last few decades.

Thank you to all our members for coming to show support for coach Carl at CJSA event this past Saturday.

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:

The Gianna Rose Vincelett Memorial Fund

Liberty Bank, Haddam Branch

P.O.. Box 37

116 Bridge Street,

Haddam, CT 06438
