The Soccer Challenge is back at Heritage Day for the 7th year.
The Southborough chapter of The Knights of Columbus will will host the free competition for kids and teens from 10:00 am – 1:00 pm on Monday, October 9th.
Anyone aged 6-16 is welcome to shoot penalty shots on St. Mark’s field.
As usual, players are allowed to take 10 shots at the goal from the penalty line (12 yards from the goal).
The goal is divided into scoring zones. The upper corners of the goal are designated as 20 point zones. The lower corners are 10 point zones and the central region is a five point zone.
Participation, as always, is free for all!
