The clinics aim to teach sports as well as other life skills.
"We have partnered with the Bucy Foundation," explained Tierney Sneeringer, Director of Peach Road Park. "They have seen an exodus of girls from sports during COVID, and, so they have worked with us to put on these camps.
With our camp in June, players from the Courage came and so they were able to speak directly with professional athletes who have worked really hard at their sport and then also off the field," Sneeringer added. "And, so they can hear different life skills and sports skills from these people who are at their best."
