different times and days of the week throughout the season.
Each session will be 1
hour. There will be 6 sessions.
Please arrive no later than
15 minutes before your scheduled time.
The 1st half of
each session will be instructional time with Isaac Brooks or assistant (if
needed). This will be on half of field 4A. Each week the coach will work on
different parts of the game (dribbling, passing, kicking, trapping the ball,
etc.). The 2nd half of the session time the players will be divided
into playing fields, where they will play 3 V 3 games for about 10 minutes and
then rotate. There will be NO COACHING, no assigned positions and no
goalies. At this age the best way for children to learn soccer is to simply kick
the soccer ball as many times as possible. Each group will play on four U6
regulation fields at North Park with small portable goals. We would like to have
1 or 2 parent volunteers on each field to replace any ball that goes out of
bounds. We will be looking for parent volunteers to help out each session.

Kids Kick It At Clinic

Sunday afternoon in North Park kids participated in
a soccer clinic held by Lambuth mens soccer coach
Paul Conway through the Jackson Parks and Recreation
while their parents enjoyed a beautiful afternoon in
the warm weather.

Young soccer
players made the most of Sunday's spring-like weather.
About 80 children participated in a free soccer player
development clinic at North Park sponsored by the Jackson
Recreation and Parks Department.
"Its gorgeous, beautiful, ideal," mom Andrea Drummond
said as she enjoyed temperatures in the upper 70s.
Drummond was watching from the sidelines as her
8-year-old daughter, Kayley, performed drills in one of the
soccer clinics taught by Paul Conway, Lambuth's head men's
soccer coach.
"Just touch it with the sole of your feet," Conway said
while demonstrating soccer's proper foot handling
techniques.
"Run the dribble nice and easy," he said from the field.
Laura Kinzer brought her 7-year-old son, Samuel, to join
the fun. But it wasn't that easy to convince Samuel to kick
the ball around with the group.
"Sam went to the free clinic last year. I'm not sure why
he's not wanting to play today," Kinzer said.
Samuel opted to stand on the sidelines Sunday and watch
instead.
Drummond, a mother of three, said this is the third year
she's had a child in the soccer clinic.
In addition to giving kids the opportunity to improve
their skills on the soccer field, coaches have the chance to
watch players and kick their coaching up a notch, Drummond
said.
"I've seen improvement in coaching and learning drills
and learning how to have fun as well," Drummond said.
"It seems as though they do a lot of drills that would be
helpful for a beginner," said Mirasol Fitzgerald, who had a
son and a daughter in the clinic on Sunday.
Drummond said she likes how Conway teaches the children
to stay in control while they are on the field.
"Control the ball. Control yourself, that's what Conway
tells the kids a lot," she said. "He's just got a gift with
the kids. Look how obedient they are."
