New York Red Bulls News Release


HARRISON, N.J. (April 9, 2015) - The New York Red Bulls and Hackensack University Medical Center have announced a series of free Youth Soccer Festivals across New York and New Jersey, set to kick off in April. The events, geared toward kids ages 7-14, offer participants the opportunity to test their skills at a Skills Challenge, learn tricks from the Red Bulls Street Team, challenge their friends to a 3v3 match, and even meet some New York Red Bull players.

"We're excited to announce these events, and to celebrate soccer with our youth partners in these communities," said Dave Jervis, Director of Red Bulls Training Programs. "Our goal is to create a safe, interactive environment that allows kids a chance to have fun, improve their skills and work with some of the best youth soccer coaches in the area."

The events will be run by certified New York Red Bulls youth coaches who are based in each community. Red Bulls Training Programs maintains a network of high-level coaches across the tri-state area that run camps, clinics and team practices in their local communities.

The series will kick-off on April 12th in New York, with the Long Island Junior Soccer League festival at 4 p.m. The events will continue through the Spring and Summer at locations in New York and New Jersey, including Hillsborough, Howell, Berkley Heights, Tenafly, Riverbank State Park, Red Bulls Training Facility, and Roosevelt Island, with more dates to be confirmed.
