DALTON, Mass. — The 30th annual CRA Just for Kicks Soccer Tournament delivered an outstanding weekend of youth soccer, featuring exciting competition, dramatic finishes, and an incredible showcase of talent from teams throughout the region.
With more than 140 games played over the weekend, the tournament once again demonstrated why it has become a special tradition for youth soccer in the Berkshires and surrounding communities.
