Niles FC will be hosting a soccer skills clinic for interested area youth. The clinic will work on all aspects of ball control: speed with and without the ball, “touch,” passing, receiving, headers and throw-ins.

The clinic has begun but will run six weeks. There are three levels depending on the grade the player will be going into next school year. These clinics will be held at Ballard Elementary 1601 Chicago Rd. Niles.

Kindergarten, first and second grade will be on Mondays now through July 26 at 6 p.m.

Third, fourth and fifth grades will be on Wednesdays now through July 28 at 6p.m.

Sixth, seventh and eighth grades will be on Fridays now through July 30 at 6 p.m.

The cost of the clinic is $35. Registration can be done on the players’ first day of camp. If you have any questions please call Brent “Puglsey” Wright at (269) 591-5188 orĀ  e-mail coachwright@prodigy.net.
