Big Al Coaching Clinic
January 29th and 30th 2010

Big Al District 33 is proud to host the 2010 "Big Al" Coaching Clinic featuring Al Price, formally of the Al & Al team. Al Price is known in Little League Baseball as "Big Al" was part of the "Al and Al" team that were the originators of the "Know Your Baseball" training program, which is the Little League Official Education Program for Managers and Coaches. Al's teaching philosophy comes from decades of experience he has culminated over the years into this comprehensive, easy-to-follow approach to learning the fundamentals of baseball, softball and tee ball. Each component of the program ties together principles of learning that have proven effective time and time again. Al has distilled his knowledge in a way that makes it easy for kids, parents and coaches to learn. Here's how he does it, in a nutshell: All the fundamental skills are clearly identified. Each skill is broken down into a series of simple, straight forward steps presented in a learnable progression. Skills are presented in a creative and motivating manner that is easy for anyone from the novice to the more experienced to follow. Above all, he never forgets that the game is supposed to be active - and fun. Big Al's step-by-step approach has helped both new and experienced coaches build Little League teams with a solid foundation of basic skills. Take advantage of this great, well-planned program: do it for the kids!

We are asking for all members of our local leagues board of directors that have not attended a coach’s clinic to please attend this one. D33 requires that all managers and coaches attend both a coaches and a safety clinic every 3 years. Every team must have a coach that has attended a coaches and a safety clinic in 2010 in order to participate in our TOC. These clinic fulfills the D33 coaches’ clinic requirement. Parents are welcome to attend as well.

These clinics will be held rain or shine. All participants should wear sneakers and bring a glove (if possible). This is a hands on clinic, but not physically hard. All adults are welcome whether they have a glove or not!

We are sponsoring these clinics along with District 66. These clinics are free for all coaches, managers, board members in any of our local leagues and those leagues in District 66. If you are not from D33 and D66 and would like to attend any of these clinics, please register at the site location on the day of the clinic. A $10.00 registration fee will be collected from non District 33 coaches for the ages 5 thru 12 clinics. A $25.00 registration fee will be collected from non District 33 coaches who attend the Advance Clinic, which includes a Big Al Advanced Instruction Manual.  If you have any questions please contact Ned Kern at
bigpapakern@yahoo.com

We are asking everyone from D33 to register on-line if you are planning on attending. Although pre-registration is not mandatory, there are several reasons why we are requesting this; One, it will make your wait in line a lot shorter on the day of the event. Two, it will give us an accurate record of who attended for ASAP requirements. Finally, we would like to have a number, so we can have the right number of volunteers to help with the registration process. Registration closes on 1/28 for the Advance Clinic and 1/29 for the rest of the clinics.  REMEMBER: you must bring your receipt on the day of the clinic to check in.
