Youth Clinics - Health, Well-Being and Fun!!
In promotion of the Cedar Rapids Blue Zones project, Coe College announces the offering of summer clinics for youngsters (ages 4 – 15). The clinics will be grounded in the LIFETIME sport of tennis, but will address/focus on overall health and well-being. A variety of other sports/activities will be played as well. Lead and directed by the Coe College Coaching Staff, children will be exposed to many of the principles set forth within the Power 9 (Just Move, Purpose, Down Shift, Plant Slant). Assistant Tennis Coach, Kris Diehl, has a 4 year old herself, and knows how to entertain, whilst retaining an educational environment.
Further, the atmosphere/culture will be centered around the concepts put forth in Wayne Bryan’s book, “Raising Your Child to be a Champion in Athletics, Arts and Academics.” Wayne Bryan is the father to professional tennis players, Mike & Bob Byran. Goal setting, side-door motivation, less is more, praise, positive reinforcement, steps of progression, a daily schedule, and the instilment of values will all be incorporated.
Example of a given day’s schedule:
9 – 9:20 – Introductions/Attendance, Dynamic Warm-Up, Static Stretching (Yoga Included)
9:20 – 9:40 – On-Court Activity (ex: throwing and catching)
9:40 – 10 – On-Court Activity (ex: balance or agility)
10 – 10:30 – Classroom Activity (ex: discuss goal-setting, children goal-set themselves)
