Whitney Hilde Signs NLI
 
As the first player to ever sign a National Letter of Intent for Greater Renton FC, Whitney Hilde, a member of the girls ’94 Blue team, signed today to attend Portland State University. Whitney is a Renton native and grew up playing soccer; it has been her passion for many years and is thrilled at the opportunity to play collegiate soccer.
 
“I feel very fortunate to be the first player to sign a NLI for Greater Renton FC. I hope this accomplishment helps every player realize their dreams can come true just as mine has today. It has been a lot of hard work and I am so thankful to the club for the resources and great coaching I have received to help me develop as a soccer player and person.”
 
Whitney began playing soccer at the age of five on the Dragon Tails, coached by Don Boydston. Although the team name and coaches changed throughout the years, many of her original team mates have stayed together and have been the heart and soul of this team. Whitney had Leighton O’Brien as her coach when Greater Renton FC was formed and she says, “He taught her a level of soccer she did not know existed.” She remembers him telling the team he only coaches his teams for two years and she was so thankful to have spent those two years with him, learning and growing as a player under his leadership.
 
As the Club Coaching Director I could not be more pleased, “Whitney is the perfect example of what we emphasize at GRFC; commitment and player development. She has been committed to staying with the same team her entire youth career and took advantage of the opportunities provided to her to develop into an elite player. We have helped develop Whitney as a soccer player and person and are confident she is prepared for the college game.”
 
As a member of GRFC, Whitney is a team captain and has helped lead her team to many tournament Championships, State Quarter and Semi-Finalist and has experienced playing at some of the Nation’s top tournaments.
 
“Whitney is a pleasure to coach and I am happy to have traveled this journey with her, she is a very talented and smart soccer player and I know she is going to have a successful collegiate playing career.” – Tami Nguyen
 
Whitney wants to thank her teammates and friends for such an amazing journey but most importantly thanks her parents, Wayne and Janett, for their love and support throughout her soccer career.

Benson Soccer has been coordinating International youth travel teams for  over 20 years. The 2nd week of their action packed trip found the team traveling to Sweden to play in the ‘Gothia Cup’ (the World Cup of Youth Soccer).  This tournament had over 1700 teams from 75 countries. In their U14 age bracket alone there were 84 teams from 20 different countries , they are proud to report a semi-final appearance.  Way to go Ladies! 
 
Beyond the soccer, the girls met kids from all over the world and exchanged gifts with players from Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Brazil, Great Brittain, Lebanon, Australia, Zambia and Kenya. It showed that soccer (or football as we were corrected many times) is truly the world's game.
