Highline Soccer Club Families,
Highline Soccer Club (HSC) is closely monitoring the COVID-19 situation and doing everything we can to provide information and make decisions in the best interest of our membership and community. Safety is our priority, and we are following the directives of our federal, state, and local governments as we continue to navigate this crisis. On March 13, 2020, Washington State Governor, Jay Inslee, directed ALL Washington schools to close through at least April 24th to contain the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) now affecting our region.
