THSCA Final Passage

The THSCA (Texas High School Coaches Association Clinic) signifies a passage, if you will, marking the end of summer and the coming of football season. The clinic is about strengthening coaching skills, friendships, networks, and personal enrichment. It is a time of celebrating the accomplishment of student athletes and coaches. It is also that final time of relaxation before the beginning of the non-stop pace of coaching.

This years clinic is in San Antonio at the convention center, Alamodome, and St. Mary's Univ. And San Antonio is one my favorite places to visit.

The Riverwalk, the history of Texas' independence and the cultural climate make it an ideal place to finish out the summer. I'm excited because rather than staying in a hotel this trip we found a bed and breakfast. While just as pricey as a hotel, the benefits of parking, breakfast, internet, and being on the Riverwalk made it a great place to stay.

The clinic provided a couple of good days of picking up coaching tips and being with coaching friends. I'm ready to see my grandson now before heading back to DFW and work.
