Hoi! We are Ajax '88, a girls U-13 select soccer team representing the Federal Way United Soccer Club in Federal Way, Washington. The players on Ajax '88 are mainly sixth graders attending various schools in the Federal Way area. Our interests are wide and varied - from softball to dance to reading - but we all share one thing in common:
WIJ HOUDEN VAN VOETBAL*!!

Our team is coached by Erik Johnson. Like many of the players of Ajax '88, Erik's love of soccer began when he was six years old. Throughout his youth and into young adulthood, he had the opportunity to play the game he loved at competitive levels. Since 1993, Erik has been helping to build and develop the girl's and young women's game of soccer in Federal Way.

The history of Ajax (pronounced Eye-ax) is largely the story of a small group of friends from Amsterdam, Holland. Over the course of 100 years, they've grown and developed into a team that conquered the world with breathtaking soccer. Ajax combines offensive-minded play with technical highlights, and has won the national championship 26 times. We think that's a pretty good example to follow, ja?!

*WE LOVE SOCCER! (in Dutch, of course!)
