Just got a grant to take the whole staff to a summer clinic. I am having trouble finding any. Anyone have any suggestions? Was thinking of maybe bringing in somebody if we can't find a quality clinic.

I'd suggest bringing someone in or taking staff to see someone
I've never seen a clinic past may in my area
Everyone's in spring ball from mid May and then into their summer stuff

What specifically are you looking for? Like Bdud said, there are many coaches that will travel to you. College coaches generally have the most time during the summer.

I think you would get more benefit by contacting a college staff and visiting with them for a couple days, especially in the summer. But what do I know

Was thinking of maybe bringing in somebody if we can't find a quality clinic. Why in the summer? I'm not sure that a summer clinic is very useful. By then you probably have most of your system installed, at least among your coaches. Even if you hear something that you like you don't have time to discuss it and figure out how to fit it into your system. I'm not saying not to take the grant. Free money is free money and if you can learn something on somebody else's nickel you have to take it. I'm not sure that you get much bang for the buck in the summer so unless the grant specifies that it has to be in the summer I think you'd be better served visiting a college during the spring.

Why can't we learn it or talk about it or fit it into our system? Not every state has spring ball so I am sure those guys some how manage to make things fit into their system over the summer.
We use spring to teach base 4 plays and experiment. Fall camp is the perfect time to get new ideas implemented going forward.
