The 2027 IBCA Clinic will be held in a Thursday evening-Friday format for the fifth consecutive year. Approximately 800 coaches attended the 2026 IBCA Clinic, so this format will be continued.
This year’s clinic will return to Mt. Vernon High School in Fortville, Indiana, its site the past four years.
The 2027 clinic will be on Thursday evening, April 22 and on Friday, April 23.
The clinic’s first session will begin at 5:30 p.m. EDT on Thursday with three featured speakers and a social hosted by the IBCA at the end of the evening. Session 2 will begin at 9:30 a.m. EDT on Friday. We hope that coaches again enjoy this two-day format.
More information (including hotel information) will be shared regarding the 2027 IBCA Clinic in future updates and in our IBCA spring newsletter that goes online about April 1, 2026.
The registration form for the 2027 Clinic is expected to open on Jan. 5, 2027.
