NATIONAL
YOUTH SPORTS
COACHING
CLINICS
Eagan Parks and Recreation
staff is offering coaching clinics for
youth sport coaches. Clinics
planned this fall will be directed to
basketball and hockey.
First year certification clinics
are scheduled to be completed on
a Saturday or during the course of
two evenings.
The rust year clinic consists of
video tapes covering the psychol-
ogy of coaching youth sports, maxi-
mizing performance, first aid, and
sport specific skills tapes.
Clinics are also offered for
second and third year NYSCA cer-
tification. Each of these clinics are
completed in approximately two
hours' time.
Primary emphasis is on assist-
ing the coach to plan practices that
are productive and fun; on identify-
ing aspects of coaching respon-
sibility that are frequently missed,
such as parent meetings; and on as-
signing tasks to assistants. Instill-
ing confidence to the coach and
reinforcing the philosophy of
"youth sports being for youth" are
major thrusts of the clinics.
Dates and times for basketball
coaching clinics have been set as
follows:
First year certification:
Saturday, September 23,
9 A.M. - 2:30 P.M.
Second year certification:
Saturday, September 30,
9 A.M. - 10:30 A.M.
Third year certification:
Saturday, September 30,
10:30 A.M. - NOON
All clinics will be held at the
Eagan Municipal Center, 3830
Pilot Knob Road.
EAGAN SENIORS
Eagan Seniors meet twice a month

new seniors to the community, and to
have fun. Pot luck lunches are fre-
quently held as a special "gathering
point ".
Polka bands, storytellers, movies
and presentations on Seniors' issues
have all been scheduled for entertain-
ment. The group, on some occasions,
plays bingo or cards.
Several outings are planned during
the year. Lunches at local restaurants,
and a trip to the Old Log Theatre
have been recent events.

terest in walking as a group. To date,
such walks have taken place at Patrick
