The clinic, which will have Illinois
State soccer coaches Pete Kowall, Stacy Welp and Jenny Kehl and the
Redbird women's soccer players on hand, will provide direction and
aid in the development of soccer fundamentals through passing,
dribbling, shooting, heading and other fundamentals.
The PCSL Fields are located behind the
Bloomington-Normal Regional Airport on Ireland Grove Road.
The cost of the clinic is $10 per
person. There will be no preregistration, and those planning to
attend the clinic should meet at the PCSL soccer fields prior to the
start of the clinic.
The Illinois State women's soccer
program recently put on a developmental clinic in the Chicago area
in memory of Julie Heideke, a former Illinois State women's soccer
player who died in an automobile accident in 1998. This year the
clinic was well-attended, with 50 local area kids participating.
Illinois State soccer coaches and players traveled to the Chicago
area to instruct at the clinic.

In addition to honoring Heideke each
year through the clinic near her hometown, the ISU women's soccer
program presents the Heideke Award to a Redbird player who follows
Heideke's path in commitment, spirit, determination, leadership,
sportsmanship, academics, morality and concern for others. The
presentation is made at a women's soccer game. Cheryl Sarnwick, who
played for the Redbirds from 2000-03, won the 2004 Heideke Award.
