Directing the Contact Football Camp at Loomis Chaffee is Chuck Reid. Coach Reid joined the faculty at The Loomis Chaffee School in the fall of 2009. In addition to his teaching duties in the Mathematics Department, he has assumed the role of Head Football Coach. Coach Reid began his coaching career as a high school line coach, and then as an offensive coordinator in Newport News, Virginia. He has also been a college defensive coordinator and a high school head coach. Chuck has spent the past seven seasons at The Loomis Chaffee School where he has overseen the program's resurgence.  Prior to Loomis, he was the head coach at Proctor Academy, where he led them to their first, and second, Evergreen League Championships going 8-0 in both of those seasons. Several of Chuck's former players have enjoyed successful college football experiences.  Chuck believes that academics must be the top priority and that a "team first" attitude is necessary for success, both in football and in life. He also feels that being a well-rounded student is critical for success in life.
