MONTREAL – The Alouettes announced on Tuesday that the club will host its first annual Football Coaching Clinic, presented by Old Dutch, on Saturday, April 26 at College Letendre in Laval.

Designed to share the advanced content being utilized by Alouettes coaches as they prepare for the upcoming 2014 season, this special clinic will serve as a platform for Alouettes coaches to interact with those from across the province as well as those who participate in the development of football in Quebec.

The clinic will be divided into two sessions with a classroom segment and an on-field segment. Theories taught in the morning will subsequently be applied in the afternoon and the day will conclude with a Chalk Talk session, followed by prizes.

Current Alouettes coaches, Noel Thorpe, Assistant Head Coach, Defensive Coordinator and Defensive Backs Coach, Mark Speckman, Running Backs Coach, Anwar Stewart, Defensive Quality Control Coach, as well as Jean-Vincent Posy-Audette, Defensive Assistant and Special Teams Assistant will all be present.
