Platteville Area Noon Optimist Club to hold Tri-Star Soccer Contest on May 12th

Platteville, WI - The Platteville Area Noon Optimist Club is sponsoring the Tri-Star Soccer Skills Contest on Saturday, May 12th at Legion Park, Platteville on the field on the corner of Pitt and Water Streets.  Registration starts at 9 am and the event will begin at 9:30 am. Age groups this event will sponsor are 6-7, 8-9, 10-11, and 12-13. Participants should meet at the soccer field by the small parking lot of Legion Park at the corner of Pitts and Water St.

The event will be similar to a punt-pass-kick skills competition but will focus on soccer skills. Soccer skills being tested will include shooting a goal, dribbling the ball around cones, and throwing the ball in from the sideline. Participants will be judged based on their age group and gender. Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.

If you have any questions regarding this event please feel free to contact George Krueger at (608) 732-7801.  If you are interested in learning more about your area Optimist club or becoming a member of the Noon Optimist Club we meet on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at a local restaurant.
