Description

Soccer in Oneonta was once practically nonexistent until the 1950s. Rural schools within the region played the game because it was once affordable and, in many cases, for the reason that schools could not field six- or eleven-man football teams. The first organized soccer team started in 1955 at what was once then referred to as Oneonta State Teachers College, as of late’s State University of New York College at Oneonta, and a year later, a team formed at Hartwick College. Both teams improved their skills within the 1960s and 1970s, and ultimately the town was once home to national champions from both schools. Interest spread to Oneonta High School, and youth soccer leagues changed into tremendously popular. Soccer in Oneonta depicts the teams, the players, the sport, and how this city within the northern Catskills were given its nickname, “Soccertown, USA.”
