Yazmin Ramirez-Ek began playing soccer with EYSC and was registered to play her 8th grade year, when her family was involved in a tragic car accident in August 2022.  Yazmin and her mother were killed as a result of this accident. 

Because of her spirit and dedication to soccer, the EYSC renamed our youth scholarship program in her name to honor her legacy. 

Yazmin's last coach with EYSC said she had a glorious, ever-present smile.  She was quiet but was always with her group of friends, but could move seamlessly between different social groups, being accepted by just about everyone.  Yazmin could be silly and serious; strong but not a brute.  Yazmin was beautiful but not in a frail way.  She was as unique and beautiful as her name, and was a joy to coach and teach.

All monies donated during the registration process is made to the Yazmin Ramirez-Ek Youth Scholarship fund.  These funds are used to help youth in the Estacada community have the ability to play soccer, even if they financially cannot.

*Please contact our registrar for more information on how to donate or apply for a youth scholarship.

Tim passed away in August 2022.  Tim is remembered as a huge proponent of youth soccer in Estacada. Besides serving on the EYSC board, he also coached multiple cohorts of youth teams who have gone on to represent the Estacada High School Rangers with great success.

Tim is a big reason why soccer in Estacada is where it is today; all due to his work on the pitch and behind the scenes. On the pitch as a player and a coach, Tim was very positive and believed in teamwork and sportsmanship.

Beginning in 2023, the EYSC created a scholarship program to award both a senior girl and boy from the high school teams who contributes to their team's success off the pitch and who shows sportsmanship and teamwork on it.

Following are the scholarship recipients:

2023    Trey Shibahara             Ava Shibahara

In addition to the senior scholarship program, the EYSC also sponsors 2 youth teams to honor Tim's legacy; Tim's Beavers and Tim's Timbers.
