About:
Garden City, N.Y. — Upon returning home from a 1-1 road trip in Massachusetts and Vermont, the Adelphi University field hockey team hosted 300 girls from ages 8-12 in its annual junior league clinic with the Long Island Field Hockey Association (LIFHA) on Sunday.
Over 300 players from Nassau and Suffolk counties came to the Adelphi campus and received instruction from Panther players and coaches on the fundamentals of field hockey.
“It is always so special for the Adelphi field hockey team to host this clinic each year,” head coach Gloria O’Connor said. “It’s our way of giving back to an organization such as LIFHA and to help grow the game here on Long Island. I give so much credit to [LIFHA president] Carol Nesdill and all the work she does and continues to do. Three hundred girls got to experience Adelphi’s players and our beautiful facility, and this is one of our team’s favorite events of the year.”
