2011 Henderson State University 7-on-7 Tournament

Henderson State Football will be hosting a one day 7-on 7 Tournament on July 16, 2011. All teams will be guaranteed at least 6 games.  This is a great opportunity for athletes to get exposure to a NCAA Division II program and to get in the full swing of the upcoming season.

The tournament will begin at 9 am. with free admission to spectators. This will be the first event on the new turf at Carpenter-Haygood Stadium. The full tournament brochure can be found on the HSU website. If you have any questions, contact Coach Ty Gower. The staff at HSU would like an RSVP from teams by April 30 to assist in the scheduling process and logistics.

2011 Harding University 7-on-7 Team Camp

The Harding University Bisons coaching staff will be conducting a 7-on-7 Football camp June 10-11, 2011. Last year, the camp (held in Searcy, Arkansas) hosted about 20 Varsity teams from 4 states. This year, the staff is planning to host both Varsity and JV competitions between teams from Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Oklahoma.

There will be LOTS of football on both Friday and Saturday with FREE admission for spectators. The camp starts Friday afternoon to allow plenty of travel time for the teams.

The participating teams can work on their passing game against other quality opponents from different states. As mentioned above, there will be a junior varsity division during the camp.

Players will get exposure to a college campus, a sample of dorm life, and contact with NCAA Division II Football Coaches. Teams get the opportunity to start working on chemistry by spending a weekend together

The cost of the camp is very reasonable. For a small additional fee, the Bison coaching staff can handle the overnight arrangements for your team. If you want more information, the brochure for the camp is located at the Harding University Athletics site (Sports Camps). This link will take you directly to the brochure. Special thanks goes out to Coach Clay Beason for the information!
