All too often women watch the game of football without understanding the ins and outs of the sport. Ron English  and his Eastern Michigan University coaching staff are eager to remedy this situation and help make football more enjoyable and understandable for women by offering a Football 101 Skills Clinic for Women Saturday, July 24 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Rynearson Stadium.

“There are a lot of women who are interested in football and Football 101 is designed to teach them about the rules of the game and why specific plays and strategies are used in certain situations,” said English, EMU head football coach. “Armed with this knowledge, the women who participate in the clinic will come out not only with a better understanding of the game, but also with a new appreciation of the sport. Plus, they’ll be able to hold their own with their football crazed friends and family.”
