The Ottawa Fury wrapped up their final day of the Spurs Residential Camp at Tottenham Hotspur by watching the Spurs First Team practice. After watching Crouch, Gomez, Bale, Defoe, Kranjcar, Modric, Corluka and Dawson from the sidelines they then had the chance to meet all of them and get autographs and pictures and Spurs captain Ledley King (not in training) also joined the excited fray. The Boys then headed to White Hart Lane for a stadium tour and wrapped up with some time spent in the Spurs Shop.

After experiencing the first game and training sessions with the Spurs Academy team the Fury were back into the hi-tempo training on Day 5 with a guest appearance from Assistant Academy Manager Chris Ramsey who led the boys through an amazing and inspiring day of training.

On Day 6 the Boys traveled to Wembley Stadium for a tour and a chance to hoist the FA Cup. Following the morning tour the Boys headed back to the Lodge for a good feeding and some rest before taking on the Spurs Academy for a second time in three days.

It was another fabulous day in London for the group of Fury Academy players who embarked on day four of their week long Residential Camp at Tottenham Hotspur. It was ideal conditions for their first training session of the day (3 hours in duration) - sunny and 14 degrees. Following the morning training and lunch the boys departed for Chigwell at the Spurs Lodge (First Team Training Facility) where they prepared for their first match against the Spurs U12 Academy team. Overall, a very impressive display from our boys with a final score of 4-1. The coaching duo of Jason Whiting and Joe Bonacci were thoroughly impressive with the play of our boys and were amazed by the speed of the Spurs Academy team. The Spurs coaches were also very impressed and proud of our boys play.

The Ottawa Fury are pleased to announce that striker Julia Hajjar has signed a national letter of intent with Loyola University where she will play collegiate soccer as a member of the Greyhounds on the field while working towards a Biology major off the field.

Julia becomes the second Fury graduate in two years to be invited to and accept an offer from Loyola University to play soccer. This past year saw 2009 Youth graudate Tessa McClenahan play her freshman season with the Greyhounds.

The group of Fury Academy players had an amazing experience this past weekend as part of the Spurs Residential Camp. On Saturday afternoon the Boys traveled to White Hart Lane as Tottenham Hotspur hosted Blackburn Rovers. The Fury players were made part of the pre-game ceremony as they carried a 'Support England World Cup Bid' flag across the field in front of 35,000+ fans. The Boys then moved up to some special box-seats that the Spurs had provide for the Fury to take in the game that saw Tottenham prevail 3-1 - for many of the boys this was the first professional game that they have attended.

After an overnight flight from Ottawa, the Fury group of U11, U12 and U13 players have checked into their home for the next week - the brand new Peter Harrison Lodge at Gilwell Park near Chingford, London. Despite some jet lag, the Boys had a quick lunch and were soon enthusiastically on their way to their first practice with Spurs Academy coaches. The Boys will sleep well tonight! The week, designed to have the boys experience what it is like to be a Spurs Academy player, will continue tomorrow with a visit to the Tottenham Hotspur v. Blackburn Rovers game at White Hart Lane.

The Ottawa Fury U12 Boys (Red) captured the 2010 Coliseum Indoor U13 Boys Title on Wednesday night after posting a 4-3 come-from-behind victory over the Inukshuks. The Fury Boys (Red) posted a remarkable 13-0-2 record (W-L-D) for an undefeated regular season and top spot in the standings. The boys then posted playoff victories over the Storm (5-4), Capital United (5-1) and the Inukshuks (4-3) to take home the championship. Not only did the boys play some impressive soccer throughout the course of the season, but they finished the regular season with a goal difference of +61.

The Canadian Women's National team captured their second Cyprus Cup championship in the past three years after defeating New Zealand 1-0 thanks to a 71st minute strike from former Fury W-League midfielder Diana Matheson. After playing to a scoreless draw through 45 minutes that saw Canada own most of the chances, they took complete control in the second half and made goalkeeper Karina Leblanc's job very simple.

Fury Youth graduate Christina Julien started for Canada and while she failed to score for the first time in this tournament she certainly remained a threat on the field. Julien's 3 goals, which all proved to be game winning goals helping lead Canada to a 3-0-0 record in the round robin and a date in the championship final for the third consecutive year. Canada had won the title in 2008 before falling to England in last year's championship game.

It was exactly a year ago that Fury Youth graduate Christina Julien first donned the Canadian colours and set foot on the field to represent Canada at the Cyprus Cup. There, Julien achieved what many only dream of doing - scoring in her first game, on her first shot no less. Now, returning to the Cyprus Cup a year later she has led Canada back to the Championship final for a third consecutive year.

On March 3 the Canadian Women’s National team will face New Zealand in the championship final thanks in large part to three crucial goals from Christina Julien, better known as Corky to her teammates. All three goals proved to be game winners in victories over Switzerland (2-1), reigning Cyprus Cup champions England (1-0) and South Africa (2-1). 

The Canadian Soccer Association announced earlier last month the 24-player roster to represent Canada at the Cyprus Cup. One-third of Canada's roster is made up of current and former Fury W-League players that include Robyn Gayle, Christina Julien, Diana Matheson, Carmelina Moscato, Marie-Eve Nault, Kelly Parker, Sari Raber and Rhian Wilkinson.

It is with this Fury firepower that the team currently finished round robin with a perfect 3-0 record - (after beating South Africa 3-0 earlier today).  Returning Fury W-League player Christina Julien has been red-hot throughout the tournament, scoring against South Africa while also bulging the twine in the 2-1 victory over Switzerland and netting the lone winner in a 1-0 victory over England.
