Deakyne family travels the globe to cheer on U.S. Soccer during World Cup Tournaments

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (KEYT) - Twenty years and still going strong. That goes for the Deakyne marriage and their passionate support of U.S. Soccer during the World Cup.

In 2006 Tim and Jenny Deakyne of Santa Barbara spent their honeymoon in Germany attending U.S. men's soccer games during the World Cup.

Last month Tim and Jenny cheered on a 4-1 U.S. victory over Paraguay at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood.

In between those twenty years their family has grown with six kids and now family vacations are often planned around World Cup host countries.

They have attended men's and women's World Cup matches in Germany, Canada, France, Australia, New Zealand, Qatar and of course the United States.

With this year's tournament on home soil, the Deakyne's did less traveling than usual but they did make it to all five matches involving Team USA with games in Los Angeles, Seattle and Santa Clara.

The 2027 Women's World Cup is Brazil and yes some members of the Deakyne family will be cheering on the United States in person.
