New Hampshire Football Report

Yukica Clinic set for Friday

The Joe Yukica Football Foundation will hold its annual New Hampshire Spring Coaches Clinic at the University of New Hampshire on April 25. The UNH football coaching staff has offered to host the event and open the team’s spring practice to all coaches prior to the start of the clinic.

The clinic will be held inside Wildcat Stadium and the UNH practice will take place on the field adjacent to the stadium from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m.


PARKING: There is parking in Wildcat Village, which is the dirt tailgaiting lot behind the scoreboard near the tennis courts. This lot is next to the UNH practice field. This requires hourly paid parking until 6 p.m. via the Park Mobile app (Zone 98724). Parking is also available behind Wildcat Stadium AFTER 6 p.m. A pass is required before that time.


The clinic includes a 2025 rules review done by the NHFOA’s Steve Hall. The rules review is mandatory for all head coaches prior to the start of the 2025 season.

This clinic is for all New Hampshire high school coaches, including assistants. Please feel free to pass this along to your youth programs and invite them to attend as well. The Yukica Foundation asks that youth programs pay a separate registration free from their local high school. NHIAA officials are also welcome.

Food and beverages will be provided, and there will be a coaches social at the end of the clinic.

The cost to attend is $25 per person or $100 per staff. All proceeds benefit the Joe Yukica Football Foundation, which provides several events for New Hampshire high school coaches and players each year. You can register on the Joe Yukica web site or pay when you arrive (cash or check only).

Speakers include Jerry Azzinaro, whose distinguished coaching career includes time as Oregon’s defensive line coach (2009-2012), the Philadelphia Eagles assistant head coach (2013-2015), the San Francisco 49ers defensive line coach (2016) and UCLA’s defensive coordinator (2018-2021).

Former Windham head coach Jack Byrne and Bedford head coach Zach Matthews will also present, as will two UNH assistant coaches (Isaiah Gilmore and Ryan VanSchelven). UNH head coach Rick Santos will also speak.
