Maya Mendoza-Exstrom, HPFC Head of Girls Development, and Alex Weaver, HPFC Director of Coaching, will be with us on August 28th at Normandy Park.

Coaches can decide if they want to be there for the full time or not.

The clinic will be targeted at volunteer parent coaches who have minimal experience in the game with The U-7 (mini's) through U-10 age groups. The day will include a brief introduction to the HPFC curriculum and how a non-soccer person might implement a digestible portion of it in the short 12 week fall season. This is not a full blown curriculum seminar, but an attempt to give the group some thematic organization that is in line with soccer curriculums and methods.
