About the Camps:
The camp is being sponsored by AYFL to put every level of player ages 8 though rising 9th graders out on the field to learn the game of football from coaches and players at the high school, college and pro level. Our goal is to teach, and teach and teach during this camp. Our staff is committed to providing the children a fun, yet competitive environment as we teach the fundamental skills necessary to become better football players, better athletes and stronger leaders.
The campers will participate in 4 straight days of 2-a-day practices. During these practice sessions they will be taught position specific fundamentals of the game as well as participate in offensive and defensive drills, skills challenges and games to help them apply these fundamentals on the field of play. Day 5 of the camp will wrap up with a scrimmage session to allow the campers to participate in game like situations. We will close the camp with a motivational speech on team work, attitude, character and decision making.
