LAS VEGAS - The UNLV Athletics Department will host a free women's sports clinic on Saturday, January 24 from 3 - 6:30 p.m. as part of the National Girls and Women in Sports Day celebration.

The free clinic, sponsored by KLUC 98.5 FM, is for all kids ages 6-12 and will precede the UNLV women's basketball game vs. Wyoming at 7:30 p.m. at Cox Pavilion.

All kids will have a chance to visit athletic stations to learn valuable athletic skills. Stations will be run by student-athletes from UNLV's women's sports programs including softball, volleyball, soccer, golf, cheer, dance, tennis, track & field and cross country. All kids will also receive a special autograph book, bookmark and poster.

Kids who pre-register will receive a free clinic T-shirt. The cost for those who do not pre-register is $5.

Kids are invited to stay after the clinic for the Lady Rebels game. All kids 12 and under are free to all UNLV women's basketball home games. Kids participating in the clinic will be recognized at halftime in a special on-court parade.

A Clinic Kids Concession Special will also be available to all kids wearing their clinic T-shirt to the game on Feb. 24. T-shirt wearing kids can purchase dinner for only $3.50 from the concession stand, which includes a hot dog, small soda, a small bag of popcorn and a treat.
