UNION CITY, Ga. - GeorgiaChron -- Despite a rainy morning, the excitement never slowed as dozens of young athletes took to the field for the Super Kickers FC Soccer Clinic in Union City on Saturday, July 25. Families gathered for the free clinic at the beautiful Eagles Nest Sports Complex, where children learned soccer fundamentals, built confidence, and discovered the joy of the world's most popular sport through fun, interactive drills led by MLS NEXT standout Jordan Gray and the Super Kickers coaching team.

The clinic, hosted in partnership with the City of Union City, provided local youth with an opportunity to develop new skills, stay active, and experience the teamwork and sportsmanship that make soccer such a powerful tool for personal growth.

Mayor Vince Williams was on hand to welcome participants and praised the partnership.

"We're excited to have Jordan Gray and the Super Kickers team here in Union City to work with our youth and show them why soccer is evolving so swiftly in Georgia. This was an opportunity for our kids to receive world-class training, be exposed to new opportunities, and become not only better athletes, but even better individuals," said Mayor Williams.

Throughout the morning, children rotated through skill stations, learned dribbling and shooting skills. While some participants were experiencing soccer for the very first time, others were eager to sharpen their skills alongside one of Georgia's top youth players.

"Soccer has done so much for my life. It teaches discipline, teamwork, fitness, and most of all, it's fun," said Jordan Gray, Super Kickers Founder, and MLS NEXT player. "I love working with young athletes and introducing them to this wonderful game. I hope more kids in Union City will consider soccer as their sport after coming to the Super Kickers Soccer Clinic."

The event is part of Super Kickers FC's mission to introduce more children to soccer by providing free, high-quality instruction in local communities. Gray hopes the clinic inspires more young people to stay active, build confidence, and continue exploring the sport long after the final whistle.  Follow the Super Kickers FC on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superkickersfc/
