Clinic is for players aged 4 or 5 years (2019 and 2020 birth years for 2024-25 season). Clinic is the perfect introduction to soccer for young players. It meets for an hour each Saturday (12:30 – 1:30 pm) at the Brewster school fields, and is dedicated to skills, fun, and sportsmanship. Registration includes 8-10 sessions in the Fall and 8-10 sessions in the Spring. Sessions will be run by a professional trainer from Chris Obi Soccer (along with parent volunteers). Each session will include both practice and scrimmage. Practices are devoted to teaching soccer skills (see below) through fun games and activities.
