WHY THIS EVENT MATTERS
The mission of Mohawk Valley Sports Charities goes beyond the playing field. We strive to raise awareness about mental health among student-athletes, reduce the stigma surrounding their struggles, and connect young people, families, coaches, and schools with real resources and people who can help.
Coaches play an important role in recognizing when an athlete may be struggling. This clinic will provide valuable basketball instruction while helping coaches better support the mental, emotional, and physical well-being of their players.
All proceeds will help MVSC continue providing resources and support to student-athletes throughout our community.
