Spring Soccer & Basketball Clinics

Tiger Soccer Skills Academy:

Marple Newtown Recreation will offer a series of spring soccer technical training programs for boys and girls in grade K-8. The training sessions will emphasize individual and small group technical skills including dribbling, passing/receiving and shooting. Although the sessions will concentrate on improving the individual skills of each player, the most important objective of the program will be to develop a love of the game among all who participate. Sessions will be fast paced and all training games (ball mastery, 1 vs. 1, short sided games) will look to develop the skills necessary for players to become confident in their abilities and enjoy the game as they mature. All sessions will be designed and conducted by Joe Brangiel who holds both a national "E" and "D" license, and will incorporate training methods from around the world. Each player should bring a ball along with sneakers, cleats and shin guards. The program will be held at the Gauntlett Community Center.
