2. About Greg Gephart…. Greg's early years were spent in Tulsa, OK. Where he graduated from Holland Hall in 1972. Four years later, he obtained his degree from Vanderbilt University. Greg's path eventually led him back to Tulsa, Oklahoma where in 1979; he began his teaching and coaching career at his alma mater, Holland Hall. In 1986, he moved to the Kinkaid School in Houston Texas and continued to teach, coach and become more involved with Junior Olympics and U.S. Field Hockey Development programs. Three years later, Greg ventured eastward to work with Durham Academy in Durham, North Carolina. Here while teaching and coaching, he began a relationship with the Duke Field Hockey program where he became the assistant coach from 1992-1994. Throughout his career, Greg was often seen selling field hockey equipment at camps and events out of the back of his Jeep. It was no surprise, in 1994, when he joined the Longstreth Sporting Goods team in Parkersford, PA as the Head of the Field Hockey Division. During this time, Greg traveled to Pakistan, India and Europe learning more about the game and making more friends in the field hockey community. Fortunately, Greg's love for teaching and coaching prevailed. He returned to the Kinkaid School in 1996, where in addition to teaching, he resumed mentoring individual athletes and coached at camps and U.S. Futures clinics. During this time, Greg created and coached the Houston Hockey Club team that competed at three US Hockey Festivals. Greg continued to impact those around him until the day he died, December 14, 1999. He selflessly touched the souls of countless students and players in his life and he is deeply missed. About Greg Gephart Fund…. The Greg Gephart Fund for Youth Field Hockey (GGF) was formed in early 2000 in honor and memory of Greg Gephart. The mission of the fund is to create unique avenues that encourage the development of youth players, coaches, and umpires to further the growth of field hockey in the United States. The Fund was created through contributions from Greg's family, friends, and others interested in supporting youth field hockey. In the past the fund has provided scholarships to summer field hockey camps as well as support the North Carolina Field Hockey Jamboree for several years. In the last several years, the fund has provided resources for Regional 10 Futures program to help facilitate NCAA guest coaches. The biggest project to date has been the Greg Gephart Field Hockey Clinic, organized and held in Houston, Texas. Currently, we are holding the 8 th Greg Gephart Clinic which has been a huge contributor in growing the sport of field hockey in the South. Liz Tchou (USA Field Hockey Manager of Sports Program – former head coach at Rutgers and Duke) and Maurits Hendriks (head coach of the Spanish National Men's Field Hockey team and former coach of the 2000 Olympic Gold Medal Men's Field Hockey team from the Netherlands) were the lead coaches in the first two clinics. Both Liz and Maurits were Greg's close friends.
