Wednesday night, some ladies learned all about football at Coastal Carolina University.

The Chanticleers hosted their annual Ladies Night.

Coach David Bennett and his staff gave a crash course in Football 101.

The women learned the rules of the game as well as some of the strategy that goes on from the sidelines.

The players were also on hand to model CCU's uniforms and have a little fun.

Coach Bennett was thrilled that 128 women showed up for the clinic. "It's a great night to showcase, now this new fieldhouse and to get ladies interested in football and get them to more Coastal Carolina games. It's just a great evening. Our coaches really look forward to it, and it's a great event," he said.

The women in attendance chose the uniform combination that coastal will wear when they play Delaware State.
