Hi guys I am from Calgary Alberta Canada. We get 1 clinic up here a year with some limited speakers that don't get to deep in terms of content covered.
I was curious as to how to start and run a clinic. Chances are we are never gonna get a Glazier Clinic up here so how do you get one going?

I think your best bet would be to go through the U of Calgary. I attended a pretty good clinic last year at U of Western Ontario that was piggy backed with the "Under Armour CIS East West All Star Game". Maybe you can convince coach Nill to host the all-star game (which brings all of the CIS coaches together). There were some great american presenters but also some great CIS and CFL coaches spoke. Hearing the canadian coaches speak was great because it's difficult to find systems information on the Canadian game.
If you do decide to go on your own, I think you would really need to network with coaches in your region to try to bring them together and encourage them to develop a presentation on an area of expertise. Then using the clinic fees you could maybe pay to get a key note speaker in.
Most clinics have sponsors as well. I would contact some football equipment manufacturers / distributers to ask them for some sponsorship dollars. In turn they can set up booths or present on their products.
Good luck.

Glazier clinics are online also... Look into it and you can watch live webinar's every tuesday and wednesday nights ( i think those are the nights), but either way it is live 2 nights a week... Plus all of the old recorded clinics..
I like these a lot... If you have questions, oftentimes you can email or call the presenter and ask, and they will respond.
*Edit - Sorry, obviously I didn't read your question correctly...
