Need some advice on running a players clinic for 10-U rec ball. Has anyone done this before? How do you handle 25-35 kids of various abilities, knowledge, maturity and experience? How many instructors per kid should there be? How long should the clinic be? Are there typical basics that should be taught and in what priority? Are there typical drills that support these basics? Should it be primarily run by stations, if so, what kind of drills would be best to use? How does one structure a clinic so it is appealing to all levels of skill, too easy you lose the skilled players interest, to hard and you lose the novice. What’s the difference between a “practice” and a “Clinic”.
I have all the gear I need but assistance is a little problem, I have 3 committed people (including me) that I can continually depend on. I have a few others that can assist from time to time, I think most of the time I’ll have 4 total. If I do this I am planning on holding these clinics every other week through a good portion of the rec. ball season. They will be 2-3 hours long. While I would like to do this, I can’t help but feel a little intimidated by the scale of it.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
