The 11th annual Baldinger NFL/Kiwanis Football Clinic will be held on Saturday, July 9, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at John Burns Park on Merrick Road in Massapequa. The clinic, which emphasizes football fundamentals and the positive results from participating in sports, is sponsored by the Massapequa Kiwanis Foundation, Massapequa Mustangs Football, and the Town of Oyster Bay, and is open to area youth from 8 to 14 years of age.

The Baldingers - Gary, Brian and Rich - were the only trio of brothers to play in the NFL from 1986 through 1993. They consider the clinic an opportunity to give back something to the community that has supported them through the years. As the clinic enters its 11th year, over 1,000 youths have benefited from a day of fun and football, with emphasis on the fundamentals.

To participate or for more information on sponsorship opportunities, please contact Gary Baldinger at (800) 821-2116, ext. 9116; fax at 798-2236; or by e-mail at gbald@optonline.net.
