Hi Coaches! On Monday July 16th and Tuesday July17th, the East-West All-Star Games will co-sponsor with the area Chick-Fil-A our annual Basketball and Football Kids’ Clinics at the Greensboro Grimsley High School campus. The Basketball Kids’ Clinic is Monday from 3-5 pm and the Football Kids’ Clinic will be held Tuesday from 4-6 pm at the Grims- ley football practice field. The All-Star teams will help participants at the clinic stations, but we could also use the volunteer help of any of you coach- es who could help supervise the stations and keep the flow of the Clinic run- ning smoothly. The stations at both Clinics are just basic fundamental skills geared for 8-12 year olds. We especially need help during the Basketball Kids’ Clinic due to the scheduling conflict with the Basketball Rules session at the Coaching Clinic. If you think you would like to help us, please contact Coach Phil Weaver at the NCCA Office 336-379-9095, or me at 336-442-7419, or my email [email protected]. Thanks for your time, and have a great summer! - Hank Bullard In Memoriam John Mathis Starmount High School John Jacobs Cleveland High School
