Short But Sweet!

I've been having a little trouble with internet and loading pictures, so I'm hoping to write short blogs more often from now on!  Here is one of my favorite highlights from the past few weeks! 

Aaron, one of the summer interns (who sadly just left), ran an AWESOME coaching clinic last week for about 15 Ugandan coaches from different organizations around the area. He put together a packet, ran sessions on field and in the classroom, and ended with a test and celebration for passing the course. I was fortunate to have been able to run a goalkeeping session in the clinic, and it was a blast.  The coaches were so eager to listen and learn and I was just as eager to pass on knowledge that I have learned from some of the best in the States. I was able to run them through our goalkeeper warm-up that I am a little too familiar with, and a crossing session, hitting on the infamous A, B, and C zones of the box. Only a few people will know what zones I am talking about here, but it was such a cool experience being able to share these training sessions that made me such a better player to coaches around the world. How cool is that!
