PROVIDENCE, R.I. – In the ongoing effort to give back to the community, the Brown men's soccer program continued its longstanding partnership with Project GOAL when the Bears recently held a clinic for the organization on October 25, prior to the team's game against Cornell.
With a record number of over 60 participants, the youth soccer clinic brought together Brown men's soccer student-athletes and coaches with the students, parents and leadership coordinators of Project GOAL. Brown Athletics and the men's soccer program also provided every Project GOAL participant with a free ticket to the game.
