In partnership with Chicago Fire Football Club, Blythe Park Elementary will be hosting a Chicago Fire FC Open Trainer Clinic, on March 3rd, where experienced and certified Football In The Community Coaches will deliver age-appropriate soccer activities during our Physical Education classes.
The 30min sessions will include individualized footwork training with the soccer ball as well as spatial awareness activities to challenge students on how to keep their balance and control of the ball while interpreting the space around them. Additionally, through experiential learning, Chicago Fire FC coaches will reinforce social and emotional learning themes as part of their grassroots soccer curriculum.
