Who has the best soccer shot on goal in the East Bay?
The second annual Soccer Shoot Out on Saturday, Oct. 13, could answer that question. It runs from 8 am to 2 pm at three fields in Barrington.
The event benefits the East Bay Coalition for the Homeless. Boys and girls from U4 to U14 can register that day at one of the fields: Chianese Memorial Park, St. Andrews School or Middle Highway.
