FC Cincinnati News Release
CINCINNATI - FC Cincinnati announced today that it will collaborate with Procter & Gamble and the Cincinnati Recreation Foundation as Community Partners to provide free co-ed soccer programs for children.
Designed for youth who would otherwise not have an opportunity to participate in organized soccer programs, the outreach effort will include instruction from FC Cincinnati's professional players.
"The Cincinnati Recreation Commission is excited to be part of this community partnership as a means to leverage our commitment of providing health and wellness activities to our citizens," said Daniel Betts, CRC director.
Cincinnati Recreation Foundation is the non-profit arm of the Cincinnati Recreation Commission and advocates to promote CRC's efforts to provide quality recreation opportunities throughout Cincinnati.
This is a summer program during which FCC players are "coaches" to the youth and CRC employees are support staff. The days include various "stations" at which FCC and CRC staff work together to educate children on health and soccer. Age-divided scrimmages end each day and give the children opportunity to implement their newly-learned skills. Each day also includes a guest speaker focusing on healthy living.
FC Cincinnati has also extended its roster of sponsors with the additions of Dr. David Beck, the Official Team Dentist of the team; Ignition Athletic Performance Group, the Official Performance Partner of FC Cincinnati; Sperry Van Ness, Uncle Bob's Storage and Dunkin' Donuts.
"Beck Pearce Dental is pleased to be the official dental partner of FC Cincinnati," said David Beck, practice lead and DDS. "Oral health is important for all people- and especially those involved with sports who confront potential high impact injuries. We are passionate about ensuring high quality treatment for FCC team members. Cincinnati's newest spectator sport promotes our region as a world class place to live, work and play. Thanks to FC for inviting us to be part of this exciting time."
Ignition APG will be the exclusive provider of Performance Training Services for FC Cincinnati. Responsible for developing and implementing customized programs designed to optimize player
