Tuition: $795 for overnight campers, $495 for day campers. A $95 non-refundable deposit is required with your application. Full tuition is payable by June 10. No refunds after June 10 can be made for late arrivals, early departures, illness, injury, cancellation or dismissals.

Day Camper Program: Our day camper schedule is from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and includes full instruction, lunch, camp t-shirt, camp diploma, and awards.
Supervision: Players are supervised both on and off the field by our trained staff of coaches and counselors. The ratio of staff to campers will be approximately 8 to 1.
Sunday Clinics: In addition to our full week of football instruction, the camp offers optional clinics on June 26 to help refine players skills. This year, two hour clinics will be offered in quarterback instruction, speed development and weight training.
Our Equipment: We have the latest football training equipment available including tackling dummies, shields and sleds.
Required Equipment: Players must supply their own shoulder pads, helmet, chin strap, pants, pads, cleats, mouthpieces, cup and athletic supporter. Most schools and town programs will loan equipment to prospective campers. A limited amount of equipment is available for a rental fee of $70.
Medical Care: Two qualified trainers and a registered nurse will be in attendance on the field and in the dorms. A pre-camp physical is required for each camper. Liability and medical insurance are covered in full detail on the fitness form.
What to Bring: Each camper will receive a complimentary playbook and t-shirt. In addition to football equipment, each camper should supply their own sheets, pillow, blanket, towel and toiletries.
Eligibility: Boys, ages 8 to 18. Since leagues and state athletic board have differing rules regarding participation in specialty camps, each boy or his parents should check with a coach or athletic director to satisfy themselves regarding eligibility. Our camp conforms to rules governing high school and pre-high school football.
