Fayetteville Parks and Recreation Offers Soccer Skills Clinic
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — This fall, Fayetteville Parks and Recreation will be offering six-week soccer skills clinics for ages five & up in lieu of a traditional soccer season. This decision was based on the current directives set in place by the Arkansas Department of Health and the shortened timeline under which we are working. The clinics will be offered on the same night and time each week and will be broken up into age groups for the best possible experience.
The fall clinics are designed for any player who wants to continue practicing their soccer skills. Our coaches are excited to help players improve their technique, learn game tactics, develop teamwork skills and share their love for the game in a fun and encouraging environment. The skills clinic will offer a low participant-to-instructor ratio, so space will be limited. Each participant should only register for one session.
