"We are proud to have Valdosta Lowndes Soccer Club (now South Georgia United) as one of our very first overseas Community International partners. They are clearly a very progressive organisation and I have been hugely impressed with everything I have seen and heard about the club. Developing Reading FC's reputation on the international stage is an important aspect of our Club's growth, and VLSC (SGU) are exactly the right kind of partner to help us achieve those aims."
