McDonald’s of Greater Ohio is partnering with the Gift of Soccer Foundation to host a free youth soccer clinic in Toledo, according to a community announcement.
The clinic is scheduled for June 27 at the Schneider Soccer Complex, 1600 S. Detroit Ave. Check-in will begin at 8:30 a.m. Parents can register their children online at tinyurl.com/2ffu5xya, with spots limited until the event reaches capacity.
The clinic will serve children ages 5-12, regardless of their experience level. Activities will include age-appropriate soccer drills, skill-building stations and community engagement opportunities. Each participant will receive a custom clinic jersey and a Gift of Soccer cinch sack filled with items, according to the announcement.
“Partnering with McDonald’s allows us to create a free, high-energy and fun soccer experience that feels special from the moment families arrive,” Margorie Espe, co-founder of the Gift of Soccer Foundation, said in the announcement. “These clinics are about bringing kids together for a day of fun, movement, teamwork and confidence-building. Every child deserves the chance to step onto the field, feel encouraged and be part of something joyful in their community.”
Nadia Elwardany, a Toledo-area McDonald’s owner/operator, echoed those sentiments.
“McDonald’s is proud to be partnering with The Gift of Soccer Foundation, and we’re so excited to bring the soccer clinic to Toledo,” Elwardany said in the announcement. “One thing McDonald’s is always trying to foster is our connection with our local communities. These clinics will not only bring Toledo youth together, but create lasting connections through the sport.”
