Summer Camp Registration

Like last summer, the camp will be run by our LT football coaches along with many of our varsity football players as camp counselors.  The camp will teach the campers a variety of skills and techniques for the different positions of football.  We will also teach them some basic offensive and defensive schemes.  At the end of each day, players will compete in two hand touch football games, which the campers really enjoy.  During the week, campers will also compete against their grade level campers in a pass, punt, 40 yard dash, and a pro agility competition.  THIS IS A NON-TACKLE CAMP AND NO PADS WILL BE WORN DURING THIS CAMP.

The campers will hear from our coaches and counselors about specific attributes that will help them be successful on the field, in the classroom, and in life. We will talk about hard work, discipline, consistency, commitment, team work, attitude, overcoming adversity, and sportsmanship.  Last year, we were honored to have former Chicago Blackhawk and Stanley Cup Champion, Brian Campbell, speak to our campers.  We're looking forward to having another guest speaker speak to our campers this summer.  

All campers will receive an LT football shirt, an Under Armour fitted hat, and for the first time, LT Football ESD shorts.
