West Pines United F.C., last year's FYSA President's Cup Finalist, took a break from participating in the Tri-County League where they compete in the U12 boys division with a current record of 2-1 to participate in the Central Florida Shootout in Orlando over the weekend of Sept 29/30, 2007. West Pines United's opening match of the tournament was a 2-1 victory over Plantation Eagles. Later, that afternoon, they played against the tournament host team, Central Florida United and were once again victorious by the scoreline of 5-0.
