CHS Boys Soccer Boosters have two Veo Cameras available to film and record Varsity and JV games. The Veo cameras automatically track the action, capture key game events and create highlight clips that can be reviewed and analyzed by coaches and players. All players will be given access to the Veo Platform so they can review the games and even generate personal highlight reels.

In addition, Varsity games will be livestreamed during the season – starting with the season opening game vs. Seton Hall Prep on Thursday, 9/28 @ 4pm.  Information on how to get up and running with Veo Live can be found at Veo.

Here’s how to watch live and recorded games this season: 

  1. Install the VEO Live app on your smartphone (iOS or Android).
  2. The first time you open the app, you’ll be instructed to Create a Veo account. If you already have a Veo account, simply click on Sign In. 
  3. Search for “Columbia Cougars” and look for the school crest.
  4. Click “Follow” and the club will be added to your list. 
  5. After you follow Columbia, you will receive notifications whenever a live stream begins.
Boosters Dues and Fundraising

We will soon be collecting dues (email with details coming soon). Dues help us to fund both development opportunities and celebrations for our players, among other things.

While we ask any family who can cover the annual dues to do so, all players will receive the benefits of the Booster Club regardless of their ability to pay.

Any donation you make above the dues will be tax deductible and will help pay for team extras and for families who cannot afford the dues. A tax receipt for the donation amount will automatically be emailed to you when you complete the form.

You can also contribute to our fundraising efforts by finding sponsors or contributing items for raffles. For example, we are able to sell advertising banners at Underhill for $600. For raffle items, tickets to sporting events or shows are always a hit. If you have ideas, please email us at: info@chsboyssoccerboosters.org

Senior Night

We’ll be celebrating our seniors October 14. Game time is 6:30, with the ceremony beginning at 5:30 pm.

Volunteers (family of non-senior players) are needed to make this celebration happen. If interested please email: info@chsboyssoccerboosters.org

Merch Store

More information to come.

For now, if you’re interested in purchasing a CHS Soccer car magnet, please email Rachel Herwaldt: rherwaldt@gmail.com

Veo Available for JV and Varsity

Thanks to a donation from the CHS Athletic Hall of Fame Committee, we have a second Veo camera this season so both Varsity and JV games can be filmed.

The Veo cameras automatically track the action, capture key game events and create highlight clips that can be reviewed and analyzed by coaches and players. All players will be given access to the Veo platform so they can review the games and even generate personal highlight reels. The recent varsity scrimmage against Bergen Catholic is here.

We are looking for volunteers to help set up the cameras at games. Be on the lookout for a sign-up form, coming soon.
