Philadelphia Union welcomed Crystal Palace of the English Premier League last week. But, before the clubs squared off in a friendly at Talen Energy Stadium, they took time out of their schedules to host a soccer clinic at the Boys and Girls Club of Chester.
After last Tuesday's training session, representatives from both teams visited the Boys and Girls Club, spending some time with local youth, answering questions and sharing their experience as professional soccer players before joining the kids in a kick-around with miniature goals.
Crystal Palace’s Joel Ward, Jason Puncheon and Sullay Kaikai joined forces with Philadelphia’s Ray Gaddis and Cole Missimo.
