LOS ANGELES - Feb. 23, 2017 - PRLog -- United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) is pleased to announce that California Victory Football Club has joined the league and will compete in the Northwest Conference beginning with the 2017 Spring Season.

United Premier Soccer League Commissioner Yan Skwara said, "California Victory FC is a welcomed addition to our Northwest Conference. The Victory's inclusion means we have a finalized eight-team conference for our upcoming 2017 Spring Season. The club is not a newcomer to the game as its management has been in the Sonoma County soccer market for years. We look forward to seeing California Victory FC competing against the other Northwest Conference teams in what is sure to be an exciting UPSL Spring Season, and wish the club the best of success both on and off the field."

California Victory FC is led by cousins and co-owners Michael Briceno and Ramiro Briceno.

Michael Briceno, 34, owns and operates Briceno Soccer Club, Sonoma County Premier Futsal League and California Adult Soccer League in Petaluma.

Ramiro Briceno, 43, is the former President of Sonoma County Sol (NPSL).

California Victory FC Michael Briceno said, "The UPSL was a chance to start something fresh. The league is growing so fast and has so many teams. We were like, 'Whoa! This is something we need to be a part of.' Plus the opportunity to qualify for the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup is very important to us. We want to have the same chance as any soccer club in America."

A tryout for the team will be held from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. on Friday night at Petaluma Community Sports Fields (2430 E. Washington St., Petaluma, CA 94954).

"We have a base of player that we're bringing from Briceno Soccer Club, and then a group of fresh players, too," Michael Briceno said.

The team will play its UPSL home games at Rancho Cotate High School (5450 Snyder Ln., Rohnert Park CA 94928). California Victory FC will announce upcoming 2017 schedule shortly.
