Second Colorado Rapids Clinic!

Our four other schools (Cowell, Knapp, Munroe, and Newlon) participated in the Play Like a Pro clinic hosted by the Colorado Rapids on Wednesday, May 6th. These four teams were lead through various drills by some of the Rapids startering players! Once again the students were really excited about riding on a charter bus provided by the Rapids organization and had a fun afternoon of soccer and autographs.

Thank you to the Rapids organization and players for inviting us to this clinic and giving our students a wonderful experience!

Check out some photos from the clinic!
