Shooting for Charity 2013


Shooting for Charity


The Florida Southern College Men’s and Women’s soccer teams would like to invite you to “Shooting for Charity 2013” held on April 14th, from 2-4pm at Barnett Field on the campus of Florida Southern College. This event will be a two hour soccer clinic put on by the Men’s and Women’s Florida Southern College soccer players and coaches. The instructional clinic will be for all boys and girls, 5-15 years of age. Boys and girls will be placed in age and ability appropriate groups and will work through different stations, playing, learning and developing the different aspects of soccer. After the clinic, all players attending the event will have a chance to receive autographs from Florida Southern College soccer players. The event will be $20 for each participant. All proceeds will go towards The Roberts Academy, which is really a great cause. The Roberts Academy is a transitional elementary school dedicated to preparing talented students with dyslexia to succeed in a traditional classroom setting. For questions, please contact Head Men’s Coach Ryan Sniegoski at Rsniegoski@flsouthern.edu. We hope to see you on the 14th for “Shooting for Charity”!
