Annual Football Skills Camp


The philosophy of the TU football camp is simple:

  • Teach fundamentally sound techniques.
  • Instruct and refine those techniques on the practice field.
  • Provide a game condition environment where campers can display what they have learned.
  • Have fun on and off the practice field.

Any student who will be entering the 5th-12th grades is eligible. Skills camp will be held for all positions, including kickers and punters.

Camp Features

Individual instruction from TU staff and other college coaches. Awards will be given for Most Improved Player, Hustle, and Camp MVP. Lunch will be provided daily for each day camper and all meals will be provided for overnight campers. Each camper will receive a camp T-shirt. A full-time athletic training staff will be in attendance at all sessions. More information will be posted soon.
