The Valor Offensive and Defensive Line Football Camp at Valor Christian High School (for Rising 6th, 7th, and 8th grades) strives to provide intensive instruction for football players wishing to improve their overall skill level. We will focus on the fundamentals of football through drills and instruction from our highly qualified Valor Football Staff. This camp is for offensive and defensive linemen only. It consists of both on-field work and two film study sessions for campers. All players must wear helmets and shoulder pads to camp each day, as there is significant upper-body contact. Players should be prepared for both a rigorous and fun experience. We are very proud that our campers return to their teams with a substantial increase in their confidence to play the demanding positions of Center, Guard, and Tackle, as well as Nose Guard, Defensive Tackle, and Defensive End.

Come and join us for a glimpse into what it means to be a part of the Valor football family! Our coaches look forward not only to providing excellent football instruction but also to developing great relationships with our campers.
