Free coed field hockey clinic offered for kids

As a former field hockey player, I feel compelled to share the following information: 

i9 Sports of South Wake will offer a free field hockey clinic for boys and girls ages 6 to 12 from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m., Aug. 3. They'll learn the basics of this great sport that needs a much bigger presence here in the Triangle (yes, I'm biased) like shooting, dribbling and passing.

Participants need to bring shin guards, a mouth piece and water bottle. Registration also will be available for the league's fall field hockey season, which starts Sept. 29 in Cary.

Field hockey!
