This fall, Uniroyal Tire will award one lucky winner's child and his/her youth soccer team a free three-hour clinic to be coached by U.S. National Soccer Team Captain, Julie Foudy. Uniroyal will give a lucky winner and his/her team a chance to learn directly from one of the top stars in U.S. professional soccer.
