Kick It & Keep It Real Together

This hands-on workshop helps boys grow on and off the field! Led by international pro soccer player, coach, and sports psychotherapist Dave “Ted” Edwards, participants will:

✅ Show your soccer skills and fun small-team games

🎨 Create their own “mask” while exploring authenticity and self-expression

💬 Join open conversations with mentors and peers about confidence, friendship, and showing up as their true selves by taking off the mask

🍪 Enjoy snacks and build new friendships in a supportive space

Perfect for boys ages 13–18, this workshop combines physical activity, creativity, and character-building in one unforgettable afternoon.

Parents love that it’s active, positive, and led by male mentors who help boys grow into confident, kind, and resilient young men. 💙
