The seminar was a partnership between the Nebraska Coaches Clinic and the WORLD CLASS COACHING International Coaching Seminar. The location of Hawks Championship Center at the University of Nebraska worked incredibly well. The full size indoor football field was perfect for the clinicians to conduct their sessions and the stadium and balcony seating made for great viewing for the attendees.
