Description
Join us for this unique camp opportunity! Good Counsel Prospect Camp is the only camp in the area which utilizes football equipment for its campers. The use of shoulder pads and helmets provides protection for the campers while it enables the coaching staff to teach much more advanced techniques than a non-padded camp.
This camp is for all rising 6th-10th graders seeking to play at the top level. The focus will be on position-specific technique, fundamentals and skill development. Every session will conclude with competitive drills to evaluate the progress of each camper. All campers will be instructed by the Good Counsel Varsity staff.
What to bring
- T-shirt, shorts, football cleats, and non-cleated athletic shoes
- Full water bottle with the camper's name on it
IMPORTANT:
-
Helmet and shoulder pads required for Prospect Camp.
-
Rentals are available for $50/week and can be purchased when registering online.
-
Campers who rent equipment will receive further details in the weeks prior to camp.
