I'm pleased to announce that we had twenty-two boys and girls aged 6 to 12 participate in the first two USFooty Kids to be held in Arlington, VA. Looking at the smiles on the faces of the players, coaches and parents it seemed that everyone had a great time.
THANKS: Thanks to all those who helped with making these clinics such a great success. Thanks to Amy Miller (www.our-kids.com) and Lisa Turcios (Hurts Hammers) for helping me to promote the clinics. Thanks to Denis Ryan (USFooty Kids National Coordinator) for helping to coach the clinics and for providing the Auskick backpacks and baseball caps. Thanks to the Baltimore Washington Eagles for helping with the coaching and providing free junior memberships to participants. Particular thanks to President Rob Brunton and Head Coach Matty Bishop. Thanks also to my wife Deena Ackerman for helping to plan the clinics, buying food and collect registrations. Finally, thanks to my son C.J. Adams for lugging equipment around and helping to recruit participants.
