Coach Murphy and the 2016 Eagles will host a free boys soccer clinic following next Friday’s home opener
STATESBORO – Georgia Southern men's soccer head coach John Murphy announced Thursday that the Eagles will host a free youth boys soccer clinic in conjunction with the 2016 home opener against James Madison University on Friday, Sept. 9. The clinic will follow the 4 p.m. game and will be at Paulson Stadium from 6:30 – 8 p.m.
"This will be a great opportunity for us to connect with our young fans in the Statesboro area after a big game against JMU," Murphy said. "For young players, the best way to improve is to watch top level soccer, then emulate them in a training setting. I know our team will be excited to share their love of soccer with those who attend."
The Eagle men invite any boy, ages 7-14, to come to the game at Eagle Field at Erk Russell Park at 4 p.m. and then stick around for the clinic and fun afterwards at Paulson. Admission to the game is free.
Included in the clinic will be a meet-and-greet with the team where posters will be available as well as an autograph session. The coaches and players will also work with those in attendance on basic skills and a raffle for adidas items will be held.
Those wishing to attend are asked to bring a pumped up soccer ball, a full water container and to come dressed and ready to play.
