Description:
Come and enjoy two mornings or two afternoons of fun-based soccer activities with some great Fury coaches. Sessions will include activity based games that allow individual players to develop a relationship with the ball; to want it, how to find it, deal with it, feel more comfortable with it, and how to keep it close. Sessions will conclude with 3 v 3 small-sided games in small areas.
