One could cite many benefits of attending the Alercio Oline Clinics. Throughout the Mid-Atlantic states and spanning far up into New England, Coaches and athletes learn “Techniques in the trenches,” like the stance, steps, visual targets, and strike points. Many might not expect a class on Physics, but we dive in on transfer or force and rate of force development, and momentum as an offensive lineman.
While our program, teaching points, drills, and memory aides all leave lasting impressions, over the last 25 years coaches have relayed the greatest value of attending Alercio OLine Clinics, is the shared experience or waking up early on a Sunday four months before the football season, loading into a vehicle with teammates, taking a road trip, stopping for something along the way, going through 4 hours of training, then taking the return trip home.
As coaches, we hope to create a shared sense of purpose, shared values, shared goals, and a shared hope for what we, as a team, can become…
These shared experiences deepen connections among team members, fostering camaraderie and mutual understanding. Spending extended time together in close quarters breaks down barriers and encourages open communication, and breeds interdependence, all mission-essential skills on the offensive line. Lastly, a change of scenery can reinvigorate a team’s energy.
Take the time to build your team’s interdependence and join us this Sunday at The Hun School of Princeton. Get your brochure here or register using the QR code below.
