THE MIAMI DOLPHINS FOOTBALL CLINIC
The Miami Lakes Optimist Football Program participated in The Miami Dolphins Football Clinic that was hosted by Twan Russell a former line backer for the University of Miami and The Miami Dolphins. It took place at The Miami Dolphins practice field in Davie, Fl. The Miami Dolphin’s Rookies demonstrated and taught the different football strategies to the children. They also emphasized on how important school is when it comes to anything in life.
Miami Lakes Optimist Football Program invited their players and parents to this event..
We had a great turn out, over 80 kids from our Football program participated in the clinic and they had the time of their lives. Miami Lakes had 80 out of the 250 kids that participated in the clinic. This is by far the largest Optimist turnout of any club.
“I was very happy with our turnout for this event. We are thankful to the Miami Dolphins for this opportunity to be a part of this clinic for our kids. All the kids, parents, coaches from Miami Lakes Optimist Football program had a great time; we look forward to a big turnout for next year.
We will continue to support The Miami Dolphins and the Town of Miami Lakes in any community program that they have.”
