We saved this camp for the end of summer to coincide with the beginning of the CFB and NFL football seasons. Players will learn how to throw and catch a football as primary skills. A major part of this program is teaching players the “Route Tree”, which is exactly what they will see when watching games on TV. The “Route Tree” consists of patterns such as the Stop, Slant, Out, and Go as basic routes and a panoply of intermediate and advanced routes. Learning how to throw these routes as a quarterback, run and catch them as a receiver, and defend them as a defensive back is the goal of this program. Defensively, the variety of coverage options and techniques will be learned. Players will engage in an even mix of drills and game-like activities to maximize learning. A goal of this program is that players will be able to watch football games on TV with greater knowledge and recognize routes, coverages, and terms. Camp is taught by Coach Jacob (13gempe@gmail.com). www.13gem.org
