National Football Foundation Coaches Clinic Saturday
Football coaches looking to get an early start on next season can head to Boston College's Yawkey Athletic Center Saturday for the annual coaches clinic, hosted by New Balance and the Jack Grinold Eastern Mass. chapter of the National Football Foundation.
The free clinic begins with registration at 8:15 a.m. followed by a welcome from new BC football coach Steve Addazio at 8:45. There will be three sessions for coaches split into offense and defense.
Offensive sessions include BC's run scheme and offensive line techniques led by Eagles offensive line coach Justin Frye, the Holy Cross passing attack led by HC receivers coach Cazzie Kosciolek, and Harvard's play-action passing game with Crimson offensive coordinator Joel Lamb.
Defensive sessions include BC's defensive line schemes and techniques, led by line coach Ben Albert, the UNH Fire Zone with New Hampshire linebackers coach Art Link, and Rushing the Passer, led by Harvard line coach Mike Horan.
Lunch will be served at noon. Call 617-552-3010 if you wish to attend.
