2006 CLINICS

TURBO ADVANCED OFFENSE CLINIC for High School TEAMS

(August 13, 10am - 5pm)

Let us help teach your team advanced swing and audible offenses! Bring a MINIMUM of EIGHT players and ONE coach, and we'll help you take your team through all the skills and drills you need to USE advanced offenses effectively by the end of the day! For varsity players with established basic skills. ($249 fee for team + coaching staff + videotape.) Call (253) 879-3412 for application.

TURBO ADVANCED OFFENSE CLINIC for COACHES

(August 13, 9am - 6pm)

Learn all the coaching skills you need to teach your team the exciting new advanced "swing" offense!

The clinic will be run in conjunction with our 1-day "Team Turbo Camp", and will give you a unique opportunity to see high school teams learn to run a swing attack from scratch ... in just a single day! This is a very unique learning experience, because you will get to see every aspect of teaching the swing system, including the player struggles and coaching error corrections necessary to get your own swing system up and running.

We will open with a one hour classroom session before the teams begin training to orient you to all of the key principles and teaching cues of swing attack. Then you will be able to observe and assist in running drills during the morning as the teams learn the key fundamental skills necessary to implement a swing attack. We will have a "working lunch," where we review additional swing offense components, and then return to the gym for the afternoon session as the teams begin to assemble the component skills into a cohesive offense. At the end of the day, we will finish with a final practical Q & A session to make sure all of your questions are answered before you leave.

Clinic includes classroom theory and video session to teach you the foundational skills and strategies; hands-on gym session to teach the actual skills, drills, and tactics for non-linear passing and audible multi-layer swing attack. $110 fee includes head coach + manual + 1 videotape + lunch; additional verified assistants attend for $39/ea. (manual + lunch.) Call (253) 879-3412 for application.
