Temecula Elementary League Soccer Signs Ups Are Now Open
A new partnership with Barks of Love will send a percentage of each sign-up to save dogs from being put down at local animal shelters.
TEMECULA, CA — Sign-ups are now open for parents to sign their elementary-age children up for Temecula Valley Elementary's Winter Soccer League.
The league — which is operated by Temecula FC and not the school district — will run from January through March with weekly games on Tuesdays or Thursdays.
This year marks a special opportunity to help local animals as Barks of Love has partnered with the league. The organization is the only all-volunteer, nonprofit dog rescue program in the Inland Empire. This season, Barks of Love will donate a percentage of each sign-up to save dogs from being put to death at local animal shelters and find them homes.
