Jennifer Scotland Memorial 7v7

On Saturday - October 20th:

The Virginia Rush will host an adult only 7-a-side tournament in memory of Jennifer V. Scotland, who lost her battle with cancer on September 22, 2007.   The event will benefit the Scotland family: Jennifer's husband, Robert, and their four children.   The Scotland family has been active in the Virginia Beach soccer community for years.   Jennifer could be seen on the sidelines of her children's games; always their biggest fan.   Robert continues to give to the youth in the community, coaching several teams for different organizations.
