49ers, Chelsea FC Collaborate On STEAM Event In London

The NFL’s San Francisco 49ers and the English Premier League’s Chelsea Football Club are partnering through their community-focused subsidiaries to bring STEAM education to London next month.

The free, two-day clinic for 10- and 11-year-old children will take place on April 10 and 11 at famed Stamford Bridge, the home stadium of Chelsea, which has won two of the last three Premier League championships. The clinic will include instruction in the disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math.

Teachers from the 49ers’ education consulting venture, EDU Academy, will visit London for the program that will apply STEAM principles to American football, as they relate to the sport’s equipment and game play.
