Coach ,

Lauren’s First and Goal Virtual Clinic is back again and I am sure like me, you are more excited than last year about this line-up!

We appreciate you supporting this incredible cause as well as taking the time to learn the game and help your own program.

The one thing I can say about this clinic more than any other that I have been a part of is that it is full of the spirit of giving.  These college coaches who are presenting are giving their best in their presentations because this goes beyond the game.

Matt Rhule, Head Coach, Nebraska is our keynote speaker and we are excited about him taking part in this year’s clinic.

With 130+ speakers, this clinic has something for every coach on your staff.  Every single position in the game is covered by multiple coaches, so taking away the proverbial “one thing” from this clinic is a forgone conclusion.  

As I said, the spirit of sharing prevails throughout this clinic and these guys are here to help you grow as a coach and to help fight pediatric cance.

We look forward to seeing you back at the 3rd Annual Lauren’s First and Goal Clinic and thank you in advance for your continued support of Pediatric Brain Tumor Research and cancer services.

Register for the 3rd Annual Lauren’s First & Goal Clinic. Save by bringing your entire staff.

Thank you for your support,

Coach John Loose

P.S. Why support this cause? Because they need you!

The proceeds from this clinic benefit families who have a child undergoing cancer treatment as well as pediatric brain tumor research.

LFGF is not a pass-through organization. All of the proceeds go to those who need it and there are plenty. Marianne Loose and her team of volunteers work directly with the families.

Bring your entire staff to this clinic and please make other coaches aware of this opportunity to learn and help others.
