It is with our deepest regrets that we announce the passing of Eilene Bailey. 

Eilene succumbed to a long battle with a seizure disorder.

Eilene had become a regular fixture at local soccer matches and events while accompanying her loving husband. The sidelines and our referee support will be all the more vacant without her presence. 

Our sympathies and prayers go out to Mark in his time of mourning.

CCSRA would like to support referees that were touched by Eilene's presence in our community to wear a back armband or band upon the USSF badge. 

-Mike Kampmeinert, CCSRA President

Eileen Marguerite Wagner-Bailey passed away on February 17, 2010 in Sacramento, California.  Born March 6, 1958 in Inglewood California, Eileen graduated from Los Alamitos High School and later received a B.A. and M.A. in English from California State University Sacramento. 

Eileen was a great friend and fun companion.  She was an outstanding student who competed in oratory and debate contests as well as drama.  She was a gifted editor and writer, who had worked for a number of trade magazines.  Eileen’s background in English and Speech made her an excellent teacher.  She utilized these talents as a substitute teacher for many years at the Sacramento City Unified School District.  Eileen had the ability to draw students into the wonderful world of words.  Eileen was a USSF certified soccer referee.  She loved Chaucer, dogs, Seinfeld re-runs, Hawaii, and Star Trek.

Eileen is survived by her husband Mark Bailey, her son William D. Layne (Sacramento, CA), mother Patricia W. Neal (Brea, CA), siblings Michael Wagner (San Francisco, CA), Patricia Vardiman (Brea, CA), and Robert Wagner (Sacramento, CA) and many nieces and nephews.  Eileen will always remain in our hearts, minds and spirit. She will be very deeply missed; her memory to all who knew her will be of a beautiful gracious woman.

 

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Eileen’s name to the Cassy Rowe Benefit Soccer Tournament 1212 Zinfandel Drive Roseville, CA 95747.

2010 CYSA DISTRICT 6 YOUTH REFEREES OF THE YEAR

I am pleased to inform you that our District Youth Referee Selection Committee has recommended two fine young referee candidates for this year's Youth Referee of the Year for District 6.  Each has been informed of their selection.

 

Jake Schmitz from Placer Youth Soccer League has been selected as the Male Youth Referee of the Year.  Jake has continued to show his desire and willingness to work on his "game" and improve his skills to a level that surpassed the level he demonstrated last year when he as selected as the District representative for the first time.  This was evidenced by his selection to act as both an AR and a Center Referee in Academy matches this year.

 

Jessika Lopez from Elk Grove Youth Soccer League has been selected as the Female Youth Referee of the year.  Jessika has been working in youth matches for Mark Lloret, as well as several other assignors, and Elk Grove for several years in both league and tournament play.  She has continued to work on her performance on the field and has continued to progress to the point where she has been AR and Center at all age levels, up through and including U-19s.

 

You should also know that this year's selection was not an easy one.  There were many very talented nominees for us to consider.  I am certain we will see several of the same names next year.

 

Congratulations to Jake and Jessika!

 

Larry Svetich

District Youth Referee Administrator
