FORT WORTH, Texas - Head Coach Prentice Lewis was invited to speak at the Texas Girls Coaches Associate annual coaches clinic that is being held July 13-17 in Austin. She will be one of the key note speakers at the event.
The Texas Girls Coaches Association is one of the largest associations of coaches, and the largest association for coaches of girls' athletics in the United States.
Established in 1953 with a membership of less than 100, it has grown to an excess of 5,000 members today and includes coaches and administrators in all levels of education. The governing body -- officers, directors, committee chairs -- are member coaches selected by TGCA members. The TGCA is sanctioned by the Texas University Interscholastic League although it is not a part of the UIL.
The annual summer clinic sponsored by the TGCA is well-known throughout the United States and attracts nationally recognized volleyball, basketball, track & field and softball clinicians. In conjunction with the clinic, two volleyball, basketball and softball all-stars games are played featuring 144 of the most outstanding senior athletes in Texas. In addition 32 cross-country and track & field athletes are honored. The clinic and all-star games attract approximately 8,000 coaches, their families, and fans of girls' volleyball, basketball, cross-country, track & field and softball from Texas and surrounding states.
