June 11, 2022: The size of the camp offered a lot of one on one coaching for the campers and the coaches made the drills fun. My son enjoyed working hard each day and came home with at least one takeaway. I appreciated the emphasis put on character building as well, this sport is so much more than just making plays on a field.
