Southwestern Community College will be hosting a pair of clinics for athletes this winter on the following Sundays: Feb. 4, 18 and 25.
The Winter Throws Clinic will focus on drills for shot put and discus, and athletes will also have the opportunity to get full throws in for the shot put.
The Winter Speed Clinic is for athletes in all sports - not just track & field - and will focus on proper acceleration technique and max velocity sprinting. Athletes participating in this clinic will be able to get automatic-timed 10 meter flys, and will also have the opportunity to work on block starts and hurdles if they wish.
The throws and speed clinics will run concurrently, beginning at 3 p.m. on each clinic date, and running until 5 p.m. The cost for each camper is $75 and gets the camper access to each of the three clinic dates. Families with multiple campers can contact Scott Vicker for discount pricing.
The clinics will be held at 612 New York Ave. in Creston, located next door to Tractor Supply Co.
