Hello Everyone,
Hope you all had a great Track and Field season. As we close off the season, I wanted to place the following Coaches Clinic on your radar.

On July 26th from 9am to 4pm

Moreau Catholic HS will be hosting a Coaches clinic where we'll have successful long time coaches who will gift us with their knowledge of the sport. A great way to begin our XC season. This Clinic is for all level coaches.

The focus is on developing distance runners for both Cross Country and Track from Youth to Professional Level, with a special emphasis on Cross Country and Team building.

The cost will be $75 per coach plus 2 free athletes(Please bring those athletes that you believe will benefit and take the knowledge seriously and to heart)

 Lunch will be included.

Please encourage your local CYO, AAU, and USATF coaches to come and grow their knowledge of the sport.

You can register and read about all the clinicians at this LINK.

Our Keynote speaker will be Mike Scannell, who's been Grant Fisher's Coach since High School and is currently the coach throughout his Olympic Career.

Amongst other names: From Dana Hills, Shawn Noonen, better known to others as Evan Noonan's dad. Evan Noonan himself.

Chuck Woolridge from Campolindo High School

Jeremy & Noel Mattern from Granada High School

Charlotte Sneed USATF Age group Youth Development Physiology.

We'll be sending more information as we get closer. For now, please spread the word as much as possible and fill out the Google sheet.
Space is limited, please RSVP once we send out the payment link.
Looking forward to hosting you on July 26th.

Any questions, please send them our way.
