WTFP Attends the Cal Football Coaches Clinic

This evening, Jurdon and I will be embarking on a journey towards our dreams. For those of you that aren’t familiar with our goals, I would one day like to coach football collegiately or professionally. Jurdon would like to become an Athletic Director or General Manager. Our dreams are lofty but definitely obtainable. The first step is getting our feet in the door. We plan on achieving this by attending the Cal Football Coaches Clinic. Here, we will network, create new contacts, and hopefully leave with job/internship. There will be some notable names speaking at this clinic, the biggest being Raiders Head Coach, Hue Jackson, so we are in for one hell of a treat. Later this weekend we will publish an article chronologically going through our experience at the clinic. Until then, wish us luck! Below is a run down of the Clinics weekend schedule.
