HARVARD TRACK AND FIELD CLINIC/SUMMER

 Here is information regarding the Harvard Track and Field Clinic this Summer

 https://www.ascenttrackclinics.com/clinics/harvard

This is the clinic a number of our champion athletes have gone to in the past. It was formerly the Complete Track and Field Clinic. 


It is high recommended based upon the Coaches that teach there at Harvard.



Michaela Denson of Sabis International Charter School trained with us and Coach Carr prior to going to Harvard. She also trained down in Bloomfield with their throws Coach "Country". I have his contact information if any of you throwers are interested.


The closest Summer Camp to us is in Windsor, Connecticut this Summer
