What is the three-week training cycle?
During the summer, we package our instructional curriculum in a three-week training cycle. Each week is a stand-alone training camp with instruction cover all essential techniques and fundamentals in the sport of football; however, each week also has a separate teaching emphasis from the week before. Athletes can gain a great deal from attending for only one week, but we recommend (and most of our athletes attend) a full three-week training cycle or more to receive maximum benefit from our instruction. Results have shown athletes gain more confidence, strength, speed, and preparation the longer they stay with us.
What is the athlete-to-coach ratio?
We keep our training ratio between 6-to-1 and 10-to-1 at all times to maximize the development of each athlete.
What ages participate in camp?
Our summer sessions attract boys ages 10 – 18 from all over the world. We will have a designated camp for ages 8 – 14 on the week of August 15th – 21st.
Do you provide housing?
All of our programs can be either boarding (meals included) or non-boarding (lunch included).
When are your camp dates?
We are open 52 weeks a year, with programs offerings Monday – Friday.
Who are your instructors?
All coaching conducted by instructors with tremendous player development experience. Most of our coaches are well respected, highly experienced, and accomplished at the college or NFL level. They currently coach, contributing analysis to many football websites, magazines, radio and TV shows, and much more. For more information, please visit our staff page.
Do you pair athletes by the position during the week?
Weekly programs include position-specific training each time athletes hit the field. When a football player comes to our campus, our job is to provide them with tools they need to develop and get better, through training, instruction, drill work, and competitive situations.
Do you provide written evaluations?
At select camps, athletes will receive written evaluations. We take video of each training session and provide access to clips following their training experience. We create video profiles for our GameChanger campers, and will provide other video and commentary on all athletes in our camps. Please be sure to keep up with our blog.
