Olympian and USWNT member Phia Gladieux is hosting ONE skills clinics on the Field 3 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. The clinic is for any athlete at the event wanting to participate. Phia will teach skills for 45 minutes, and then answer questions, take photos, and sign autographs. Spots are limited. Proceeds from the clinic will be used toward the purchase of an AED, which Phia will then decide where she wants to place it.  

Following her skills clinics, Phia will host a FREE Huddle For Hearts CPR/AED clinic from 1 to 2:30 p.m. in the Rill Gymnasium. 

Spirit Competition: Dress in your high school field hockey program's apparel and bring a minimum of 10 fans to enter a spirit competition. Any high school field hockey program may attend the Gold Medal Game wearing your high school's name and/or logo. Watch the Gold Medal Game with Phia, and during the finale, FAN will take professional photos of your team. We will then publish the photos to Instagram the next day, where you may rally your school to win a $500 donation toward your 2026 Fall Field Hockey Program. Voters must follow Female Athlete News and Huddle For Hearts on Instagram for your vote to count. The vote will run from March 23-March 25 at midnight. The winner will be announced mid-morning on March 26.

Halftime: Dads, we are seeking a few more competitors for halftime. Dads will dribble from the 25 to the cage and take a shot. The fastest and most accurate dad will win a gift from Phia. Sign up by emailing femaleathletenews@gmail.com

Ball girls: If you'd like to walk out during the Bronze and Gold Medal games, please email us at femaleathletenews@gmail.com. You will also be a ball girl. Ball girls in the Gold Medal Game will walk out with Phia.
