The Slippery Rock track and field team has put together a learn by doing clinic for people all ages. The ages ranged from the youngest being 9 and the oldest being 78, so literally anyone could be apart of it. The learn by doing clinic has been around for 25 plus years and still continues to grow and help people better themselves in their favorite events in track. The clinic consists of high/long/triple jump, pole vault, sprints, hurdles, jav, shot, disk, and with the new addition of distance. The clinic is made to help athletes and coaches learn new tips and tricks to advance and learn in the events that they prefer.
