NC State athletics, in conjunction with Wake County Human Services and Dick Capp of the NFL Alumni Association, held a Kids Sports Clinic on Saturday, June 16, 2007 at NC State’s Wendell Murphy Football Center. NC State student-athletes and coaches were on hand to run the sports clinic.
The event consisted of a tour of the Murphy Center followed by a sports clinic with the children and teens having a chance to participate in football, soccer, volleyball, cheerleading and marital arts. In addition, Mr. and Ms. Wuf came by to entertain the kids.
“The idea is to present successful local athletes as role models who are interested in the future of these young people, “Capp says of the event. “The goal is to help provide a spark and hope to children who lack the advantages that we had. We encourage the involvement of student-athletes as a meaningful social experience for themselves and the kids.”
Wake County Human Services, specifically the Adoption Resource Team and the Therapeutic Homes Program, promoted the day with their foster care program.
