Coach ,

This has been a fantastic clinic season with coaches from all over the country sharing their knowledge virtually.  Tonight it continues with another great clinic and an incredible cause. The Eric LeGrand “Believe” Coaches Clinic.

On October 16, 2010 at MetLife stadium, Eric LeGrand ran down on a kick off for Rutgers and didn’t walk off the field.  He couldn’t move. He couldn’t breathe, and Coach Schiano came out on the field knelt and looked down at Eric and said, “Pray.”

Becoming paralyzed playing the game he loved didn’t change his passion for the game or the lessons he had taken from it.  It provided him the courage and inspiration to go out into the world and do more. 

Eric has shown the world that obstacles can be transformed into opportunities, and he will continue to drive  his mission forward until he delivers on Christopher Reeve’s dream of a world with empty wheelchairs. To Eric, it is not a matter of if he walks again, but rather when.

To help Eric on his mission, Coach Schiano, the Rutgers staff, and the New Jersey Football Coaches Association have launched the virtual “Believe” Clinic with all proceeds to benefit "The Christopher Reeves Foundation" on behalf of Eric LeGrand.

Please help this cause while expanding your football knowledge April 18-20 with 31 speakers from high school, college, and the NFL.  Live and replay available to all attendees.  Only $35 for the NJFCA or get the State Association MegaTicket which gives you access to 9 other state clinics.
