Hamden Hall Hosting Girls and Women in Sports Day

By Dawn Miceli (Open Post)

Hamden Hall Country Day School hosts its fourth annual Girls and Women in Sports Day, a clinic for girls ages 8 to 14 that instructs young ladies in the fundamentals of several different sports.

The complimentary clinic on Sunday, Feb. 1, from 10 a.m. to noon, celebrates National Girls and Women in Sports Day, an annual event that recognizes female athletes and programs across the country.

Participants will receive hands-on coaching during half-hour blocks in some of the following sports: basketball, lacrosse, soccer, volleyball, swimming and dance. All clinics are taught by the coaching staff and varsity players of Hamden Hall’s premier athletic teams.

This is Hamden Hall’s fourth Girls in Sports clinic. Last year’s event attracted participants from all over the Greater New Haven area. The clinic takes place at Hamden Hall’s Beckerman Athletic Center at 225 Skiff Street, Hamden. This program is open to the public; however, reservations are required.
