Coaches’ Clinic Information

Thank you for your willingness to coach a JLB team.  We appreciate your dedication to the youth of Parker County!  For your convenience, we have scheduled two different coaches’ clinics, but you only need to attend one of the clinics.  At the clinic, you will find out some important information about the league, AND you will be able to sign up for your team’s practice time.  Coaches who do not attend any of the clinics will have a very limited choice of practice times because most time slots will have already been taken.  Remember, teams can only practice during the practice times provided by the league.  Therefore, it is very important that you attend one of the clinics.  Listed below are the dates and times of the clinics.  Both coaches’ clinics will be held at North Side Baptist Church (click here for directions to North Side).

Wednesday, December 3 @ 8:00 p.m.

Saturday, December 6 @ 9:00 a.m.

Coaches Training Workshop

“I’m a coach!  Great, now what?!”  All coaches are encouraged to attend this new workshop which is geared for those who are interested in coaching, but feel that they need some training on how to coach a team, run a practice, etc.  We will have an experienced coach who will provide you some valuable information that you won’t want to miss!  This workshop has been conveniently scheduled after the second coaches clinic!

Saturday, December 6 @ 10:00a - 12:00p (Couts Memorial UMC)
