Ever want to send your kid to a youth football camp? Or maybe you are a coach with some promising players, you would like to attend. I have compiled a list of some football camps and what they offer.
If you are not really sure what a football camp is, let me try to explain. It’s like a summer camp, ran by NFL or College coaches and or players. They instruct different age groups in football skills. Most are kind of expensive but I think they pay off the investment. If you have a promising football player in or close to high school, it can help them get into college. They will learn needed skills and get close instruction by very talented coaches and players.
Alex Brown’s camp
Alex Brown of the NFC champion Chicago Bears has a camp at Lewis University in Romeoville IL. This is a one week father/son or coach/player camp. It costs $739 for overnight campers or $629 for no overnight members. They can break that into 4 payments and require a deposit. The overnight campers get 3 meals a day, Staff shirts for dad or coach and a photo with the headline player of the camp, and a free football. There is a group discount offer. They do not guarantee that Alex Smith will be there but they do say some Chicago Bears will be there. They offer daily instruction and demonstrations of the fundamentals of football, 7 hours of on field practice a day. This is a chance to be seen by college coaches up close and personal since the majority of the staff are college coaches. Players 15-18 can make the top 30 list.
