What should camp attendees bring?
Athletes should wear comfortable clothing suitable for
practice; shorts and t-shirt are recommended. Make
sure to wear/bring football cleats and gloves.

What if my child is an average athlete or is just
beginning football?
The camp is not designed for athletes to get down on
themselves if he is not keeping up with the other kids. It
is based on positive reinforcement for each participant’s
individual effort. The coaches pay close attention to each
camper and make sure they improve at their own level of
ability. If the athlete is just beginning, the camp is
probably not ideal for them. They will need to know what a
practice is like and what is expected of them on the
football field. Things that are learned with some previous
tackle football experience either in school or in an
organized football league.

Is the camp advanced enough for my child?
We feel it is very important to challenge athletes to
raise their skill level and focus on going to higher levels.
We make a special effort to ensure every participant gains
valuable experience and knowledge from the coaching staff.
We make sure the athletes are matched up with others of the
same talent level to maximize their skills level.

Do the kids get an autograph?
When camp comes to a close there will be time for the
campers to get autographs. Campers are welcome to bring
their own memorabilia to have signed. Parents are also
welcome to take pictures at the end of camp.

Is there someone available if my child is injured?
A medical trainer will be on site for all minor injuries
and preventative care. Medical clinics and a hospital are
near the practice facilities and a phone is always on-site
for emergency situations.

Who are the coaches for the High School camp?
Our goal when we line up a coaching staff is to present a
wide range of expertise that allows an athlete to relate to
different levels of success. The pro athletes really make it
fun for the kids, but the celebrity players involved in the
camp are only a small part of why our camps are so
successful. Our staff features top local high school coaches
who have a proven track record of successful teaching
skills.

Are the celebrity athletes really there for the High
School camp and help coach?
Yes! The athletes are not only scheduled to be there, but
they take an active role in the practice. We are very lucky
that all of the celebrities involved in the camps are there
because they care and they want to be there. They are
involved with all phases of the practice schedule and will
be hands on with the athletes.

Can you explain what you do during the High School camp?
Our camps are non-contact. We stress fundamentals, form
and technique, with a focus on quality instruction for each
and every kid in a fun atmosphere. We not only hope to teach
them skills to make them better athletes, we hope to
stimulate their general interest in sports. This will
include an emphasis on good work habits, self-discipline,
faith, motivation and self-confidence. Our practices are
intense, upbeat, and crisp in tempo.

Are parents allowed to come and watch?
Absolutely. We encourage parents to come and watch. There
are bleachers at Indian Trail High School and we just ask
that parents stay in the bleachers during camp. Parents are
welcome to bring cameras and come enjoy a fun-filled day!
