USD Team Football Camp

I don't know how many other coaches and their teams attend padded team camps during the summer, but I for one have been going with my present team to the University of South Dakota padded team camp.

This is a great opportunity for a team to go to. The kids go to clinics all day long to teach them to block and tackle and other position specific drills. This is not centered around any particular type of offensive or defensive scheme but are things to be able to help each player as an individual.

This is also a great opportunity for a team because you are able to work on your offense and defense during this camp. There is team competitions, such as king of the field, king of the dome, passing competition, lineman competitions, etc. It is a great way to measure the progress of your team against other teams from around the Midwest and even through out the country.

There are teams there from Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota,and Wisconsin. Plus it gives the coaches a chance to talk shop and to see who there hitters are going to be the next season.

What a better way to jump start your season.

How many other team camps are out there? Are they worth going to?

I can't wait for the season to start!!!!
