2009 Youth Pro Clinic a BIG Success
1st Annual Pro Clinic was held May 30th at Sunnyvale Stadium
The Saints invited the kids in our community to a football clinic with several ex-NFL and college players/coaches. It will be a great opportunity for our children to learn, take pictures, and get autographs from former All Pro/Super Bowl NFL players. These players will spend time speaking not only about their past football experience but also life lessons they’ve learned along the way.
The clinics mission was to teach the fundamentals of football, sportsmanship, goal setting, and perseverance in overcoming life's obstacles. We are committed to teaching each young athlete the proper fundamentals of football at a reasonable price. As an introduction, this first clinic will be FREE to all who pre-register before May 7, 2009.
When utilized properly, athletic programs such as football can provide young men with the skills necessary to become strong and productive leaders in our society. The clinic brings together athletes and coaches who have achieved different levels of success. Our instructors are committed to sharing their lessons in perseverance, discipline, and the dedication with young athletes. If your child has never played sports or has been playing since kindergarten this clinic can help them achieve their maximum potential. Every child has an opportunity to improve their skills and receive guidance in developing physical strength and motivation.
