THE VANCOUVER WHITECAPS are conducting a community camp this weekend in the Comox Valley.

The Comox Valley United Soccer Club (CVUSC) is excited to bring the Whitecaps FC Community Clinic to Courtenay this weekend. It is free to all CVUSC registered players.

The sessions will run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., on both Saturday and Sunday April 28 and 29 at Valley View Park.

"It is sure to be a memorable weekend for many coaches and young soccer players in our community," said CVUSC president Matthew Blecha.

A highlight of the weekend will be Whitecaps FC MLS player appearances and autograph signing sessions on both days of the camp. Whitecaps FC official camp posters will be provided for each child participant. The club estimates that between 800 to 1,000 kids will attend the development camp.

“The weekend clinic will provide Vancouver Whitecaps FC with the opportunity to continue to strengthen its relationship with the CVUSC while providing player development opportunities for the youth of Comox," said Dan Lenarduzzi, director of soccer development for Vancouver Whitecaps FC. "We hope this clinic will help the soccer club grow their registration and profile in the Comox Valley."
