What’s the best way to learn about a sport? While each individual might have their own techniques they pick up as they try and get better, soccer clubs and leagues across the country will soon be able to get a unique learning opportunity from a Canadian legend and Olympian.
To start her retirement, Olympic gold medallist Stephanie Labbé will be travelling from coast to coast to offer a limited number of youth soccer clinics.
Labbé will host goalkeeper or player clinics through clubs or associations that apply to her Champion Tour 2022.

Excited to announce my Champion Tour will begin in late May and I’ll be travelling across the country visiting soccer clubs and putting on clinics filled with FUN, technical tips, a motivational talk, and your chance to take a penalty shot on me!????⚽️ ????????https://t.co/5anvh8l0sn pic.twitter.com/5Ui0cnARQJ

During the sessions, she will provide insight on her 2020 Olympic experience, drills, techniques, and games used by an Olympian to get ready for big matches. And some attendees will even get a chance at doing what some of the world’s best soccer stars couldn’t do: take a chance at scoring a penalty shot against Labbé.
The tour will run from mid-May to July. Clubs are able to apply, but spots are limited.
