Grammar
make it a possessive or not
Hi,
Let us say that I am writing to inform students about activities and events that are happening in school. How do we know whether we have to use a possessive form or not for the cases like the one below when we are talking about periodic gatherings of students who are interested in soccer and want to play better at it.
Girls Soccer Clinic (should it be 'Girls' Soccer Clinic'??)
Anyone girl who is interested in becoming a better soccer player is welcome to join us. We will be meeting every Wednesday, 5 p.m. at classroom B7.
