Super Bowl XLII in Arizona will mark the 20th anniversary of the NFL Youth Football Clinics. Created by former Miami Dolphins Wide Receiver Nat Moore, the clinic typically invites 3,200 kids aged 7-14 to clinics where NFL players present an education and drug awareness program, sign autographs, teach the children the fundamentals of their position, and stress important motivational messages. At the conclusion of the clinics the children receive official NFL merchandise as a memento of the event.
In light of 20th anniversary of the program, our goal is to reach 20,000 Arizona boys and girls, as well as Special Olympics Arizona athletes. The Arizona Super Bowl XLII Host Committee, along with the Arizona Cardinals invite elementary and middle schools, youth sport programs and community youth organizations to participate in interactive football zones and drills.
