Colorado Rapids' players in our schools!

Pictured left is Conor Casey, one of the Rapids' players who visited an America SCORES Denver soccer practice last week! Rapids' players and SCORES students alike had a great time, as drills were practiced, and new skills introduced for the kids to try out.


Pictured below are some action shots from the visits!

Students at Munroe Elementary had a chance to watch goalie Preston Burpo, and defender Facundo Erpen model some drills to practice for improvement of their game. They then scrimmaged, while Preston and Facundo gave out some helpful hints...

Students at Barnum Elementary had a chance to interact with goalie Bouna Coundoul and Mike Petke, who played a lot of drill games, and even got Coach Olivas in on the action! Just below, Bouna tests out the juggling skills of Coach Olivas, which the kids love!

Just above: the Barnum boys and girls team, Coach Olivas, Bouna Coundoul and Mike Petke.

And a few more!
