Discount enrollment at Sport & Health Clubs

Friday, January 30th, 2009

City Football Club (“City F.C.”) is pleased to announce a new partnership with Sport & Health Clubs for a corporate account, enabling our participants (City F.C. and DC Stoddert players, coaches, teachers, volunteers and their families) to receive discounted enrollment at Sport & Health clubs.

City F.C. / DC Stoddert participants and families are now eligible for dicounted memberships at Sport & Health Clubs.

City F.C. / DC Stoddert participants and families are now eligible for discounted memberships at Sport & Health Clubs.

This is an excellent and inexpensive way for City F.C. athletes to workout and receive FREE weight-training support from our coaches at group workout sessions. Moreover, there is no better way to get in shape than to workout with a group, and with this discounted rate, it has never been easier to do so.

For one person to enroll at the club’s Northwest branch on Brandywine Street near Wilson High School, it is $45/month; for couples, it is $65/month ($32.50 each); for families it is just $76/month (i.e., $19 each for family of four).

A complete list of Sport & Health’s branches is available HERE, and while City F.C. mostly attends the Northwest branch, various discounted terms are available for just about all of Sport & Health’s clubs. For more information, or to enroll, please contact the Northwest branch’s Brendon Hill at (202) 244-6090 or (202) 280-6219.

“To put this in perspective, my last gym membership at another club, using my employer’s corporate account, was more than $80/month for just myself,” says City F.C. director and coach Dan Driscoll.

Again, City F.C.’s coaching staff currently offers FREE weight-training support at the gym twice each week (currently Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:15 pm at the Northwest branch near Wilson High School and Tenleytown metro). City F.C.’s program includes a 7-day workout manual. At the end of the school year, this program is coupled with City F.C.’s off-season training program.

More group training sessions with City F.C. coaches on hand will be added as demand rises.

Again, to enroll, please call Brendon Hill — (202) 244-6090 or (202) 280-6219 — and see that you are put under the new City F.C. account.

City F.C. is pleased to host the first annual D.C. Senior Showcase match for District high school soccer players.

The first-ever D.C. showcase of the top District high school boys soccer talents is set for Saturday, January 10th, making the George Washington University’s soccer field the place to be from 1-3 p.m. EST.

More than 30 of Washington, D.C.’s best high school soccer players will square off in an all-star match pitting the District public schools’ best players against some of the Washington-metro region’s top private and suburban public school players.

With most of these players still uncommitted to colleges, the D.C. Senior Showcase is the best chance for area college coaches to see some of the Washington area’s most promising undiscovered talents in action before the 2009 college soccer season rolls around.

The George Washington University soccer field is located at the GW-Mt. Vernon Athletic Complex at 2100 Foxhall Road, NW in Washington, D.C. Directions to the facility are available at: http://gwsports.cstv.com/student-ath-ctr/gewa-vernon-facility-directions.html
