FAQ – If your son can only make some of
the camp, don’t worry, he can still play football in the fall and if you’d like
you may pro rate the amount. Freshmen can miss all of the summer (although this
isn’t recommended) and still play in the fall.
Flag Football Camp (middle school)
Download Registration Form
June 10 - June 21, 2013
Monday - Friday 9-11a.m.
The Menlo School Flag Football Camp is designed to teach middle school-aged boys (intermediate to advanced rising 6th, 7th, and 8th graders from any school) the finer aspects of football. The camp is a great opportunity for young football players looking to begin Pop Warner and interscholastic flag football to learn the game and get a head start on their opponents.
Your athlete will learn how to pass, catch, and run the football. The campers will also learn how to block and pass rush effectively. This summer will feature Deceleration and Agility Training, which crosses over to all sports.
Football has 22 different positions. The camp will help your athlete find the position that is right for him, according to his individual skill level and athleticism. Each day is broken down into segments that will focus on particular skills, strategies and tactics.
The instructors will pick even teams on the Wednesday of the first week. These teams will participate in a three game tournament that will take place over the last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of the two-week session. These teams will design their own offensive, defensive and special team systems after learning how to use formations and design plays.
Campers will receive a complete, high quality, flag football uniform (jersey and shorts) that is theirs to keep.
