Results of clinics starting to show after three years 

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic, March 8, 2007.- If the third time is when it counts, this was the most successful year for the annual international volleyball clinics for physical education school teachers given by members of the coaches and technical commission of NORCECA.

“We can appreciate the progress obtained by the physical education teachers that have been taking part for three years now,” said Cuban Eugenio George Laffita.

“The sport is part of the education of our boys and girls, and the physical education teachers play an important role in the beginning of the athletic careers of our future stars,” said George. “But the most important thing is to educate them and make them good citizens with good health and the sport is a key to achieve that goal.”

Besides Mr. Laffita, the other instructors were Lorne Sawula, Mark Tennant, John Kessell, Israel Garcia, Rene Quintana, Justo Morales, Francisco Cruz and Carl McGowan with the general coordination of Miguel Beato Cruz.
