The Harding University Bisons coaching staff will be conducting a 7-on-7 Football camp June 12-13. Last year, the camp (held in Searcy, Arkansas) hosted 18 Varsity teams from 5 states. This year, the staff is planning to host Varsity, JV, and Junior High teams from Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Tennessee, Missouri, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Oklahoma. The coaching staff indicates that several schools from Arkansas' powerful 7A West conference are already making plans to attend.
Some highlights that we see in this camp:
- Lots of football on Friday and Saturday
- Admission is FREE for spectators
- Teams can work on their passing game against other quality opponents from different states
- Players get exposure to a college campus, a sample of dorm life, and contact with NCAA Division II Football Coaches
- Teams get a chance to start working on chemistry by spending a weekend together
If you want more information, the brochure for the camp is located at the Harding University Athletics site (Sports Camps). Thanks goes out to Coach Clay Beason for the information!
