(openPR) - The Hermosa Beach Soccer Club today announced that two of its players, Jesse Torres and Jason Cave, were honored with the President’s Volunteer Service Award. Established in 2003, the Award was created by President George W. Bush to give Presidential recognition to individuals, families and groups who meet requirements for volunteer service, measured by the number of service hours performed over 12-months.

Jason Cave received the award in recognition of the hundreds of volunteer hours he contributed to youth soccer. Mr. Cave, a construction company executive, acted as coach, mentor and positive influence to many local youth.

Jesse Torres, a banking professional, was honored with the President’s Volunteer Service Award for a broad range of community service activities including board member of the Los Angeles Junior Chamber of Commerce, Boy Scouts of America and service to the L.A. Watts Summer Games.

"The Hermosa Beach Soccer Club prides itself on not only its winning soccer program but also the work our players do in the community. Jason and Jesse are just two examples our Club’s commitment to volunteer service. I know Jason and Jesse will inspire others within and outside the Club to give back to the community," said Brian Dragich, HBSC President. "Volunteers are role models in our community, donating their time, energy and talent to bring us closer together. HBSC seeks to be a role model on and off the field."
