Sunbelt Free Kicks Giveaway to Fund Scholarships at St. Robert’s Soccer Club












Collegedale, Tenn. (Vocus) March 26, 2010

St. Robert’s Soccer Club (SRSC) of Omaha won the Sunbelt Free Kicks $ 1,000 giveaway in February. They are the sixth US Youth Soccer Club to benefit from the monthly giveaways.

“We were completely taken by surprise at the notification of receiving the donation,” said Mike Bene, president of St. Robert’s Soccer Club. “Like many clubs, we have families that want to participate but are having financial difficulties. Since we never turn away kids from our program for financial reasons, the donation will go a long way to helping with this need.”

In addition to the $ 1,000 donation, SRSC soccer players and their families and friends are earning more cash for their club by going online to SunbeltFreeKicks.com and entering codes located on specially marked box tops of Sunbelt granola bars and Sunbelt fruit and grain bars.

“We are so grateful to Sunbelt for their generous support of youth soccer in our area and across the country through their Free Kicks program,” said Bene. “We sincerely appreciate the donation, and will use it to further our cause of bringing quality recreational soccer to the youth of our community.”

“We’re glad to be able to help the St. Robert’s Soccer Club with its efforts of giving children at all levels the opportunity to enjoy the wonderful game of soccer,” said Jeff Badger, brand manager of Sunbelt. “The Sunbelt Free Kicks program has now given more than $ 20,000 in donations and prizes to players and soccer clubs. Nutrition and physical fitness are cornerstones of Sunbelt, and sponsoring US Youth Soccer is a great way to demonstrate our commitment in these areas.”

SRSC was selected out of more than 700 clubs across the nation that have entered the randomly drawn contest. The drawings are just one part of the Sunbelt Free Kicks program, a nationwide effort sponsored by Sunbelt that helps US Youth Soccer players and their families and friends raise money for soccer equipment, supplies and other club expenses.

New Soccer Training Method Revitalizes Maitland Soccer Club










(PRWEB) June 27, 2005

Maitland Soccer Club has adopted a new soccer training program, Virtual Soccer Trainer, a new method for teaching soccer over the Internet through short video developed by former professional soccer player Kamal de Gregory. Since adopting the program, Maitland Soccer Club has seen dramatic improvements in their teamÂ?s abilities.

Â?We are using Virtual Soccer Trainer as an integral tool for reaching our five year goal of being the best soccer club in Orlando, Florida,Â? said Joe Biber, Director of Coaching for the Maitland Soccer Club. Â?It allows us to teach exactly what we want every player in the club to learn, while keeping parents and coaches informed and on the same page. It does the work of providing unlimited time and effort in supporting every member of our organization, enabling them in reaching our clubÂ?s vision.Â?

Virtual Soccer Trainer is an online soccer training program using the theory of modeling, in which players are shown the correct way to perform a skill then work to mimic it. It consists of hundreds of 1-3 minute soccer training tutorials designed to:

Accelerate beginning and advanced playersÂ? skills

Educate parents

Help coaches save time by continuing to train their players off the field

The soccer training tutorials range from the basic themes of proper passing technique to advanced topics of defending in the midfield. Soccer drills and online tests have also been created to help teach and reinforce these topics, and all are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week at http://www.4Skills.com.

This soccer training program is available to youth teams for as little as $ 2 per player. To receive this soccer training program, visit http://www.4Skills.com or call toll-free 1-866-460-3569. The website also has valuable information on health-related soccer training issues, tips from other soccer professionals, and lots of soccer products.

About Maitland Soccer Club

Maitland Soccer Club’s vision is to develop players who play soccer well and grow as individuals and teammates inside a supportive community. Through proper instruction, training, and encouragement, Maitland Soccer Club is coaching players to be champions with character, both on and off the field.

About 4Skills.com

4Skills.com was created after Kamal de Gregory, a professional soccer player, saw the difference in soccer training techniques around the globe. Some methods worked better than others, but de Gregory became dedicated to providing professional soccer training, which was previously only accessible to elite and professional players, to youth teams around the world.
