Men’s Soccer Gives Clinic at Junior High

by Jarom Jordan

PROVO, Utah (Jan. 12, 2010) — Members of the BYU men’s soccer team traveled to Mapleton, Utah Tuesday to give a clinic to students at Mapleton Junior High.

“It’s been great,” said Zach Beddoes, P.E. teacher at the school. “It’s been nice to get the kids into smaller groups and work on the little skills they need. I think these guys really liked it. Having these guys here really validates the drills we do.”

Over 400 kids participated in eight different sessions of 45 minutes throughout the day working on heading, passing, dribbling, and shooting.

“We’ve just tried to have a lot of fun with them,” said freshman forward, Tim Fitt. “We’ve tried to let them get their energy out. We let them shoot a lot and kick. We’ve played a lot of passing and heading games with them.”

Members of the team not only taught soccer skills, but important life skills too. “I think it’s an example athletically and socially and every other way,” said Beddoes. “One of the players was mentioning to make good choices, stay healthy, those types of things, and that’s every bit as important.”
