Columbus Crew Soccer Club will hold one of its winter camps at Bluffton Family Recreation in January.
The one-day camp is Monday, Jan. 16, 2017, from 9 a.m. to noon. It is open to youth ages 5 to 14. Registration is $75 per youth.
Camps will focus on player development through a core foundation of soccer skills and a challenging learning environment. A wide range of technical training will be included such as dribbling, passing, controlling and finishing.
Bluffton Family Recreation doesn’t halt its programming during the holidays.
Several activities take place later this month including indoor holiday soccer tournaments, according to Joseph Beagle, BFR director. There’s still time to regular teams for the tourney.
The popular holiday tournaments takes place Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday, Dec. 17-18-21.
Here’s the schedule:
Saturday, Dec. 17 – high school boys’
Sunday, Dec. 18 – adult open
Wednesday, Dec. 21 – high school coed
After 19 years and who-knows-how-many soccer matches, Bluffton Family Recreation has a new carpet – more precisely, a new indoor turf on its soccer field.
And, according to Joseph Beagle, BFR director, “We are getting great reviews from athletes using it.”
The new turf replaced the original turf.
