The Lawrenceville School will hold a Youth Football Clinic on July 16, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the Lawrenceville School campus.
Boys and girls entering 5th to 8th grades, are eligible to participate, and and newcomers to the sport are welcome.
Registration before July 1 is $20, $40 after, and includes lunch and a camp t-shirt. To register, or for additional information, contact Harry Flaherty (Lawrenceville’s head varsity football coach) at hflaherty@lawrenceville.org or (732) 977-4820.
Students will participate in two practice sessions, emphasizing football fundamentals and will hear from motivational speakers. The camp will be led by Flaherty, a former NFL and Princeton University football player. While at Princeton, Flaherty was a three-year starter at tight end and graduated with a degree in history. He was a free agent with the New Orleans Saints in 2011 and the Dallas Cowboys in 2012 before coaching as an offensive assistant for the University of Tennessee while earning a law degree.
At the clinic, Flaherty will assisted by NFL veteran coaches who have played for the New England Patriots, Jacksonville Jaguars, New Orleans Saints, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Dallas Cowboys, and Kansas City Chiefs as well as the Canadian Football League’s Ottawa Renegades. They have also competed at the NCAA level for Brown, Bucknell, Northwestern, Princeton and St. Lawrence – and coached at the University of Pennsylvania, University of Tennessee and West Point.
“Through coaching from former Division I and former professional players, as well as former college coaches, campers will improve their fundamentals while experiencing Lawrenceville and enjoying a fun day,” said Flaherty.
