ICDFC SOCCER WORKSHOP
Saturday, April 27, 2024
In this 2 hour-long, outdoor soccer session we will spend time doing drills (some fun, some challenging), sharing T1D tips for on and off the pitch, and playing in a fun, but quick-paced scrimmage. Meant for teens and young adults living with type 1 Diabetes, this session is open to all who are interested in levelling-up their footy skills. At ICD we aim to meet you where you are at, not only with your soccer skills, but also with your diabetes skills.
Join our experienced and enthusiastic leaders who were part of 2023's Milton Soccer Fundraiser winning squad, show us your favourite moves, and take your game to the next level with I Challenge Diabetes Football Club!

This event is open to teens and young adults living with type 1 Diabetes. Whatever your level of skill- Elite, developing or enthusiast, this session will offer challenge and fun for everyone. Exceptions may be made for elite players of a younger age- please contact us at [email protected] with inquiries.
ICD will supply some snacks and low supplies, but we recommend everyone come prepared with their own water, snacks, and gear. This session is outdoors. We recommend layering as April weather is unpredictable.
ICD is a leader in exercise and diabetes with experts in the science who talk the talk and athletes who walk the walk. We’ve hosted thousands of type 1s in everything from a fun day of sport to week-long camps and extreme challenges. We focus on how to manage diabetes effectively in the midst of real life challenges and use active programs to bring strategies to life.
