Former
National Football League players Henri Crockett and his brother Zachary
Crockett returned to their hometown roots this past Saturday and put on
their annual football clinic at the Four Fields Complex in Pompano
Beach.
Henri
Crockett, 40, who played linebacker for the Atlanta Falcons, Denver
Broncos and the Minnesota Vikings, along with his brother Zachary, 42, a
former fullback for the Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars,
Oakland Raiders, Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Dallas Cowboys, treated
nearly 300 local children to football drills and lunches during a USA
Football FUNdamentals clinic.
Both
men grew up in Pompano Beach, and graduated from Blanche Ely High
School, before they both played at Florida State University in their
path to the NFL.
The
free, one-day clinic is designed to introduce children, ages 6-16, to
football by teaching basic skills in a fun and energetic environment and
is supported through a grant from the NFL Foundation.
