A little history behind the                                              New Haven Americans; the team began as the New Haven Cosmos and in                                             1997 the manager of the Cosmos needed more players so he asked some                                                     of the local coaches from New Haven Youth Soccer if they would be                                                      interested.  A few of us joined and we eventually started our own                                               team.  Since most of the players were from North and South America                                                 we decided to call ourselves The New Haven Americans.  Although we’ve                                                had players from various parts of the world, we’ve kept the name mainly                                                           because being mostly Americans we didn’t see a need to change and                                                           what’s in a name anyway.  It’s mainly about the game and                                                                                meeting other people, right? Well, over the years the team has                                                                     had some good and some average seasons. The average                                                                                age of the team has gone from almost 40 to about 33.                                                                                       The league itself is called the Shoreline Adult Soccer                                                                                           League, SASL.  With 3 divisions in the over 30                                                                                                    league and soon 2 divisions in the over 40                                                                                                    league, the SASL is the largest adult soccer                                                                                                   league in New England .  The league has                                                                                              suggested starting an over 50 league in a few years.
