BKL Coaching Clinic and Resources
At the end of October 80 BKL Leaders from all over New England gathered at Holderness School in Plymouth, NH to listen to presentations from some of the most experienced coaches in the region. We shared stories, picked each other’s brains, played games, and worked on our common goal: helping kids to celebrate winter! It’s clear that our youth Nordic skiing community is thriving based on the amount of energy and enthusiasm in that room.
Many thanks to our presenters for their thoughtful and informative talks, to L.L.Bean for providing thank you gifts, to our leaders for spending the day with us, to Sunrise Orchards for the apples & cider, and especially to Pat Casey and Holderness School for hosting the day.
