Steelers To Host USA Football Coaching Clinic

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers and USA Football, the National Governing Body leading the development and growth of youth, high school and international amateur football, have teamed up to host a coaching school for youth football coaches in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area.

The one-day clinic is set for Saturday, May 17, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the team headquarters at the UPMC Sports Performance Complex. Limited space is still available and interested coaches can register for the clinic on the Steelers’ official website, www.steelers.com.

Steelers’ coaches James Daniel and Kirby Wilson will be two of the many coaches on hand to discuss a variety of topics, including coaching philosophy, fundamentals and executing drills.

This spring and summer USA Football will be partnering with NFL teams and colleges to host youth football coaching clinics across the country.  The clinics will teach each youth coach effective ways to develop and organize their team, teach the proper fundamentals, implement drills and communicate with players, parents and other coaches.
