Kicking Cancer
Kicking Cancer helps teach children the game of soccer, the benefits of being active and educates parents on ways to help prevent cancer. Kickers will be in small groups and led through warm ups and fun drills that will introduce them to soccer and basic skills. We incorporate a lot of games and activities (including non soccer related) into Kicking Cancer which will be great for younger children who may not be interested in soccer and have a shorter attention span! Senior kickers will focus on building proper technique and learn drills to improve their existing ball skills. Registration fees are $40 per Kicker.
Linda's Buckeye Tree dedication
Family and friends celebrated Linda's memory & legacy at a Buckeye Tree dedication on April 20th at the new Schumaker Athletic Complex for Linda and Billy Hill, both pioneers in athletic training at Ohio State.
