ACFC would like to extend its thanks to Ben Kull for all the time and hard work he put into the founding and managing the LA-based soccer club. After two years of tireless efforts, Kull has decided to put more time into his on-field ACFC successes as a mainstay on both the over-30 11s side and in 7 v 7 league and tourney action.
Kull rebranded the Shockers in 2008 into what is now Angel City FC and saw the club's trio of squads rack up a bunch of accolades during his two year tenure with coach Billy Alarcon, including an LA Municipal League and Cup Championship, two Santa Monica Adult 7 v 7 league cups and an ACSL division championship.
Kull was also instrumental in the formation of the Angel City Soccer League, which filled in the playing gaps when other adult leagues were on break. The second season is currently in progress after a highly successful inaugural winter session.
The club now supports a roster of about 50 players and looks forward to continuing on with Alarcon assuming the dual role of manager and coach, with the help of ACFC board members Kirby Adams, David Woirhaye, Pete Wasek, Rahoul Ghose and Kull.
Kull's managerial skills will be sorely missed. He will continue to look after the 7s squads competing in the Santa Monica League and the ACSL.
Thanks, Rahoul. I love the photo. If ever there was a man that needed a rest it's the hunched over, weary guy in the picture. Perfect.
