Technical Touch NY News!
As Summer Programs Come to an End, TTNY Looks to the Fall.
The summer has been the best mix of busy and fun. It kicked off in June with our newest program at My First School. Technical Touch NY was in charge of introducing soccer to the youngest players. At the end of July and beginning of August our summer camp was held in West Hempstead. For two weeks players improved their dribbling, passing, finishing, and team skills.
Although the summer is nearing its end TTNY is excited for the fall. We have opened registration for our Technical Tots Fall Clinic as well as Early Bird Discounts for the Playmaker and Technical Clinics. Lastly Technical Touch will begin training sessions for the New Select Team. Roster spots are still open for this supplemental soccer program. Click here if interested
