They will also receive an official Sydney FC holiday clinic jersey, shorts, socks, along with a boot bag and certificate of participation.
Children from right across Sydney, including Castle Hill, Burwood, Gladesville, Penshurst, Hornsby, Manly, Ryde, Fairfield, Bankstown and Leumeah will take to the pitch between 9am and 12noon from Tuesday 19 January to Thursday 21 January 2010.
“The MBF Sydney FC School Holiday Clinics are an excellent way for budding young players to learn more about the game in a fun, friendly environment,” Sydney FC Community Football Officer Ryan Walsh said.
“As well as receiving coaching tips from leading coaches, the kids will get to mingle with the A-League players and have their Sydney FC gear signed.
“It is a great experience for them. They hone their football skills, get decked out in the full Sydney FC kit and get the chance to ask the professional players a thing or two about the game.”
MBF Marketing Director, Mark Engel, said MBF was incredibly excited to be part of the Sydney FC Community Football Clinics.
“The Community Football Clinics are a perfect fit with our goal of helping people lead longer, healthier and happier lives. We hope that this initiative helps the next generation to establish healthy lifestyle practices through their passion for football,” Engel said.
“We believe that programs like the MBF Sydney FC Community Football Holiday Clinics are a great way to deliver messages of fitness and healthy living in a positive environment to children in New South Wales. The kids really respond to the advice given by their football heroes.”
