My partners and I have started an off season youth football camp to better prepare the youth of our community in the fundamentals of the game and at the same time keep them occupied and off the streets.

We also monitor their grades and conduct in school.  Our camp consist of two phases, one is speed and agility and the other is position specific training (quarterback,running back,etc.).  We run the camp three days a week for one and a half hours a day.  The coaches that are involved in the program are all local youth coaches from different parks in the area.

I wish everyone could see the difference this program has made in the youth in our community.We are also in the process of becoming a Nonprofit organization so that we can serve our community better.

Thank You.
