The next installment of our popular 6-week Skills Clinic is now open for registration. Our skills clinic is based on the Coerver coaching methodology. Each week, players will discover new moves for improving their all-round ball familiarity and skills. The skills taught will help players learn how to beat opponents 1v1, how to use footwork to get out of a pressured situation, and how to change direction in a game. The clinic will run from January 30, 2012 to March 5, 2012 and is available to both Gryphons and non-Gryphons players.
