In addition to the courses listed
above, from time to time, HYSA may offer “topical”
clinics for coaches. It is solely purpose of supplemental
coaching education. These clinics can also be requested
by a League or a club. It can be set up to serve as an
overview for all of your leagues or clubs first year
coaches or can be designed to target the coaching of
specific age groups. That's the beauty of it, your league
or club can establish whatever will serve your coaching
needs best. The true value of this program is also derived
from being a hands-on clinic with the action taking place
in "The True Classroom", on the field. Active
participation is strongly encouraged to add to the participants
understanding and experience gained from the clinic,
but is not required.
