Papa ...

There are usually three clinics each year, but it depends on at least two stooges who run them.

Jerry Burkhart (#1) has a clinic each year at Richland Springs (the wicked part of me would then say "or wherever he's thinking of taking another job," as last year it was in Gordon, but that would really be mean and not true) usually in April, on a Friday and Saturday. Worth the trip as he usually rounds up everybody who won a state championship.

Me (Stooge #2). For the last five years, I've had a clinic at Seguin Lifegate Christian School. Right now, plans are a little up in the air for 2014 as it will be at a new location. We've had 80-100 coaches show up each year. Hopefully in the next couple months I will have some idea of what I am going to do when I grow up and will be able to get plans started. Looking at a Friday in mid-June (perhaps a couple weeks earlier than past clinics which were the last week of June), but all that is still up in the air. May be moving up the road on IH-35, as I have had a kind offer from some friends to move it to their location.

Jerry and I have DVD's of some of our past clinics (I have sets from 2010 and 2011, Jerry has individual speakers from clinics. Heck, his series is longer than that Time/Life series of Dean Martin roasts.)

The Texas Six-Man Coaches Association has a clinic each July (a week or two before THSCA Coaches School); it's been in Lubbock since God was a kid, but somewhere I thought I heard it might be moving to Wichita Falls.

In all these clinics, the time you spend talking with other coaches -- speakers and participants -- is well worth the cost of admission.
 
Hey at the seguin clinic... do you need to be a Highschool coach? I think Id like to send a couple of my League coaches. Purely observation..... I dont want them taking away from anyone else trying to learn........
