Founded in 1983, we have the best teaching football programs in the nation having graduated over 101,000 athletes, many currently playing at the college level. This will be our 33rd successful year of football instruction. If you are an experienced football player or just starting football, our football programs are an experience you will never forget!
You will return home to your team a better football player! Athletes learn from outstanding veteran college and high school coaches selected for their ability to coach and teach the game of football. At certain programs, the staff is complimented with current and former professional players and coaches who have a passion for sharing their knowledge with young athletes. From 2011-2015, we had 300 current and former professional players and coaches instruct at our programs. This is more than any other program in the nation!
Before the start of each program, each of our instructors attend an orientation session ensuring they adhere to the values and high level of coaching that is expected from the Sports International coaches. We concentrate on the fundamentals of the game. With each practice, you will receive in-depth instruction, lectures, and demonstrations from an experienced, knowledgeable coaching staff.
Sports International offers four types of camps and academies to meet your football player's needs:
- Football Camps - Learn individual and team techniques on both offense and defense from the best instructors available. We will teach you the same offensive and defensive techniques that are taught by a professional coaching staff! Campers are grouped by age, position, ability, and experience to allow coaches to progressively teach basic and advanced techniques to best benefit each group.
- Passing, Receiving, and DB Academies - These academies feature specialized instruction for quarterbacks, receivers, tight ends, and defensive backs. Participants will receive in-depth instruction, lectures, and demonstrations from an exceptional coaching staff made up of high school and college coaches, selected for their ability to teach the game of football. There are also outstanding classroom sessions and video analysis. You will not find better instruction anywhere - period!
- Lineman Academies - These academies feature specialized instruction for lineman. Participants will be trained by our outstanding veteran college and high school coaching staff, selected for their ability to coach and teach the game of football. There are also outstanding classroom sessions and video analysis.
- Kicking, Punting, and Long Snapping Camps - These camps give each participant personalized instruction in the disciplines of kicking, punting, and long snapping. Specialized college and high school coaches, as well as current and former college kickers, punters, and long snappers at the top of their field, coach each position.
At our programs, players get all the football they could want. Participants receive up to 6 hours of instruction each day. Participants are divided up into different age groups to ensure they receive the proper training. Each program, is the right size to allow players to be matched up properly at each age level. This allows not only for a proper match up, but also for the participants to be challenged and provided with a better learning environment. Without the proper size group, players are not matched up properly and they will experience frustration, failure, and loss of confidence.
Our coaching staff offers each player an enormous amount of encouragement with an enormous amount of enthusiasm. Our philosophy is to "let them have fun" while learning a lot of football! We promise each athlete will go home a better football player. But players learn more than just football at our programs. They are taught about teamwork, consideration of others, self-discipline, and how to attain their potential in sports and in life. Players also learn the importance of achieving good grades and selecting correct role models. We encourage them to go home a more positive, optimistic person. Safety is important at our programs so all of the staff is subject to a background check. There are athletic trainers on duty at all times to attend to the athlete’s needs. Send your athlete to the finest instructional and best supervised football programs in the USA!
