2008 NFHCA Clinic Program (Updated 4/22/08)

The NFHCA is pleased to announce that USA Field Hockey will once again be joining with the NFHCA in support of the 2008 Coaches Clinic Program. The coaches clinic program curriculum will be based on USA Field Hockey’s current style of play.

           

The clinic program will include six sessions based upon a curriculum designed by Pam Stuper, NFHCA Clinic Program Chair and Level II Coach and Terry Walsh, Technical Director of USA Field Hockey. These clinics will present the “USA Way to Play” to junior high, high school and club coaches in a clear, practical and useful way.  The clinics will be interactive so attendees are encouraged to bring their sticks and come dressed to play! In addition to skill acquisition, clinicians will be presenting plenty of drills that attendees can take home and use with their athletes.
