Wentworth Athletics to Host Special Olympics Soccer Clinic

BOSTON, Mass. – The Wentworth Institute of Technology Athletic Department is pleased to announce that it will be hosting a soccer clinic for members of the Special Olympics on Saturday, October 5. This marks the second year in a row the Leopards have taken part in this event.

This partnership is in conjunction with an NCAA Division III initiative and its purpose is to improve the lives of Special Olympics athletes through their involvement with Division III student-athletes and to foster a mutual learning experience between Division III student-athletes and Special Olympics athletes.

Saturday's clinic will feature Leopard student-athletes assisting with a clinic on Sweeney Field, which will be followed by the Special Olympians being involved in the pre-game introductions and National Anthem prior to the 12:00 p.m. start of the men's soccer game against Commonwealth Coast Conference foe Curry College.
