Below are the pics Crocs and I took at the Beach Soccer event in Oceanside, California on Sunday!

If you see your picture feel free to right click on it, then save it to your computer.  It’s free so have at it!

“Wait, your finger is covering the lens!”

Crocs and I got the pleasure to meet Mike Herman in person.  Mike and I had spoke a few times on Twitter and he is the founder and president of Compton United Soccer Club.  He helps provide soccer training and real life character building for his players that mostly need scholarships to afford the cost to play.  He is a super nice guy and we are in talks to have me sponsor his club and set all his players up with Online Soccer Academy accounts for free so they can learn some soccer stuff from me too but mainly to teach them how to use computers and give them the real life skills they can apply in the class room and for future jobs.

Team PUGG pose for a photo before the the finals in the pro division.

After the finals my boy Ronnie Silvia and I gave Beach Soccer a thumbs up!  Ronnie plays for the US Beach Soccer National Team and is a very good player!

Team Senegal celebrates and signs autographs with the fans after they won the Pro beach soccer tournament.  They were a very good team and it was a well deserved win.

Meet Eddie Soto, the US National Beach Soccer Team Head Coach.  He was a great guy and also coaches at U.C.L.A.  I tried to slip him a $20, like I said I would in my Cajun Beach Soccer video, to see if he could come put on a free beach soccer clinic in Louisiana but he kindly said he can not accept bribes but thanks for the offer.  Can’t blame a guy for trying right!! LOL!

Team PUGG receives their 2nd place medals after a great weekend!

Gino Rossi, a partner in Beach Soccer Tournament, hands over the 1st place trophy for the pro division to the captain of Senegal!

All in all it was a great weekend and Crocs and I barely got any sleep!  We had a blast and can’t wait to go back next year!  Enjoy the pictures and as I said earlier feel free to save them to your personal computer.

If your in a photo or wish you could have been at the beach that weekend be sure and post a comment in the comment section and say hello and let me know what you think about the pictures.

If your on Facebook then send me a friend request and I can tag you in the photo that is yours.

Be sure and check back in a week or so and I should have all my video from the weekend edited and ready for you to check out!

Keep livin the dream!’
