December 2012

Growing Up Through Sports Niagara, partners with the Concord Soccer Club as Kidz Can Help makes a soccer equipment donation!

Growing Up Through Sports Niagara is pleased to announce a new partnership with Concord Soccer Club. This upcoming summer Growing Up Through Sports day camp program will also offer a soccer camp that will be instructed by the professional coaches of the Concord Soccer Club. This specialty camp will be geared towards the youth that would like to learn new soccer skills or improve upon existing skills, in a fun and supportive environment. Thanks to the skills and expertise of the Concord Soccer Club coaches, Growing Up Through Sports Niagara will be able to ensure a quality soccer camp experience. Camp will take place at the newly renovated ballhockey.com Athletic Centre, located at 16 Melbourne Avenue in St.Catharines.

Summer camp is a great opportunity for youth to meet new friends and engage in activities they may not typically have the opportunity to enjoy during the school year. Growing Up Through Sports recognizes the need for youth to be active all year round regardless of their abilities or financial situation. With support from community donations, small grants and fundraising, Growing Up Through Sports is able to provide subsidy for families who are in need. However, there is still a need for sports equipment for the youth to have to be able to participate and that is where Growing Up Through Sports and the Concord Soccer Club would like to thank Ethan Chase and his brother Noah Chase from Kidz Can Help for their generous donation of soccer equipment for our Summer Camp program. Kidz Can Help has made a number of donations to Growing Up Through Sports to support the youth who wouldn’t be able to play if they didn’t have the necessary equipment. A huge thank you to Kidz Can Help.ca for their most generous contribution!

For more details on donating your new or used sports equipment check out www.kidzcanhelp.ca or for more information on Growing Up Through Sports programs and camps please visit our website at www.growingupthroughsports.com or contact,
