East Bay United – Bay Oaks’ player Amado Lozano was among 52 players in their age group (born in 1999 or 2000) to be invited for the recent boys id2 Program Training Camp in Casa Grande, Arizona. The camp was held at Grande Sports World and featured the top players from across the country for four days of high-level training and off-field sessions from Dec. 6-9.  Here is the link of all the attendees, US ID2 List of Attendees. The invitation-only event gave both players the opportunity to compete in front of U.S. Soccer National Team staff, as well as some of the nation's best coaches. The age groups for the camp were selected to align with the scouting priorities for the U.S. Soccer U-14 National Teams.

The EBU Bay Oaks United 02 Team won their bracket in the 2012 NorCal Premier State Championship Cups, which took place from September through November. The United 02 team won their Quarterfinal game against the number seed 1 – 0 on a Golden Goal by Max Walthers in the second period of extra time. Deigo Ottaviano was fantastic in goal; keeping the opponent scoreless with many incredible saves. The boys advanced to the Semifinals and again, won a nail biter game in penalty shootout 2 – 1. Tate Johnson scored the game equalizer with an assist from Zach Le-Nguyen to send the game into extra time.
