National Clinics & Virtual Kickoffs

Injury Prevention & Sports Nutrition Webinar 

Every other month we will host a call-in clinic for either Injury Prevention or Sports Nutrition. You will see the announcements via the Facebook feed and Sixcycle.

 Virtual Kickoff
 

The Event Strategy Team will host an Event Kickoff call for all teammates across the country. It includes an TNT introduction, Mission Moment and fundraising overview. In addition, the agenda gives a preview of their Event Weekend and course highlights. The kickoff does not cover training information as it is unique dependent upon the coach and training location. There will be emails starting 4 weeks out from the Kickoff. If you are assigned to that event, you will receive the email. Finally, each Event will have a national Facebook group to help in building community and provide answers to event-related questions.
