Ann Buratti: Soccer Super-Woman

At a recognition banquet prior to the annual general membership meeting in November, Edina Soccer Club administrator Ann Buratti won the award for Minnesota Youth Soccer Association (MYSA) Administrator of the Year. The award was well deserved. As Edina Soccer Club administrator, Buratti runs accounts receivable and payable, is the first point of contact for all issues and is also responsible for registration, uniforms and apparel. When asked how she manages it all, Buratti says, “I love the variety of it. It’s fun.” In addition, Buratti attended numerous city council and planning meetings while rallying support from other Edina associations for the Braemar field dome. “I have great appreciation for everyone who is a part of the [Edina Soccer Club],” says Buratti, “I grew up in Edina. I love being a part of Edina’s tradition of doing things well.”
