FRED 'FRITZ' SCHARFF GOLF TOURNAMENT
Fred 'Fritz' Scharff's involvement with Mustang Soccer began in 1980 because his youngest daughter, Ashley, wanted to play Al Caffodio, just like her older sister, Kirsten. Because there was no coach and even though he did not have an ounce of soccer coaching experience, Fritz stepped up for the U10 Mustang Thunderbirds. Fritz continued to coach this same team for 10 years, won three state cup championships, and sent a large portion of the team off to play in college. During this same time period, Fritz also held many positions on the Mustang Soccer board and Mustang Soccer became one of the biggest parts and joys of his life. With the Thunderbirds all away in college, Fritz found great joy in going to Osage Park to watch soccer games on the weekends. On one of those glorious spectator days, he was recruited to help coach another group of girls and again stayed with them through their U18 year. Fritz then took several years off from coaching but when his daughter, Ashley, moved back to Danville with her husband and newborn baby, Lauren, they decided to coach together for 8 years, until he was diagnosed with cancer in 2011. Fritz was proud of the fact that he was a very successful coach, made an impact on many girls’ lives, and had given over 25 years of service to the club without collecting any money. Fritz passed away on February 14, 2014, at the age of 71. The annual tournament was named in honor of Fritz the fall before his passing, in 2013.
