On
August 14, 2005, the Jewish Community Center of Atlanta invited GoFlagFootball.com to present at their
fall youth flag football kick-off meeting. The event took place at
Shirley Blumenthal Park, and there was a great crowd. Go Flag Football author and coach, Danny Crumley,
led the coaches' clinic.
The
clinic was part of the JCC's "value added" activities for their recreational and
wellness programs. The JCC offers a wide range of activities for youth and
adults. The clinic lasted about an hour and the group enjoyed the participation.
Danny
spoke to the group of parents and kids about the sport of flag football and it's
popularity around the world. "I love to see the kid's eyes light up when I talk
about working with teams from around the world. They are also intrigued to know
that some of the flag football tournaments can have $10,000 or larger prize
money."
After a short question and answer session, the group went into a few practice
drills. Go Flag Football likes to offer programs that the group can take with
them off the field. The drills we demonstrate can be used to practice basic
techniques before a game, during practice, and at home.
"Our main focus with youth groups is to let them know that this is a sport you
can continue to enjoy the rest of your life.
