Friendswood High School Trainer Megan Duncan has been selected to serve on the medical team as All-Star Athletic Trainers for the 2011 Texas Girls Coaches Association (TGCA) All-Star Games this summer in Austin.
           She will work with all of the sports there and will serve as the Athletic Trainer for the Girl's Basketball Games.
           The Texas Girls Coaches Association is one of the largest associations of coaches, and the largest association for coaches of girls' athletics in the United States.
           Established in 1953 with a membership of less than 100, it has grown to an excess of 5,000 members today and includes coaches and administrators in all levels of education.
           The governing body -- officers, directors, committee chairs -- are member coaches selected by TGCA members.
           The TGCA is sanctioned by the Texas University Interscholastic League although it is not a part of the UIL.
           The annual summer clinic sponsored by the TGCA is well-known throughout the United States and attracts nationally recognized volleyball, basketball, track & field and softball clinicians. In conjunction with the clinic, two volleyball, basketball and softball all-stars games are played featuring 144 of the most outstanding senior athletes in Texas.
           In addition 32 cross-country and track & field athletes are honored. The clinic and all-star games attract approximately 8,000 coaches, their families, and fans of girls' volleyball, basketball, cross-country, track & field and softball from Texas and surrounding states.
            Duncan is the head athletic trainer, AED Coordinator, and Teen CERT instructor for Friendswood High School.
