“We have always had a player or more come over for the Line of Scrimmage Camp. Last summer we had 14 Blue Jays participate. It is the best position specific OL/DL camp we have ever been
to. We will bring 20+ players next summer. Every player that has attended has grown tremendously from it. The LOS Camp has helped us reach a new level of competition. We will CONTINUE to push the LOS Camp heavily as we want to continue to grow!”

“There are many football camps offered to student-athletes, but there is only one Line of Scrimmage Camp. VCSU LOS Camp offers many opportunities in their focused two day program. My players improve through position specific drill-work led by outstanding OL/DL coaches. The camp offers my younger players an opportunity to compete in controlled settings against age appropriate and skill leveled competition. LOS Camp offers my elite players the opportunity to compete with and against some of the best players in the region. I also learn the latest drills and techniques at camp; drills that I take back and use in the Fall.”

“The LOS Camp is the most quality football camp I have been associated with. We have been sending athletes to the camp for the past ten years with great results. The athlete-to-coach ratio is excellent as are the camp instructors. The time spent on individual technique and the time allowed for team concepts makes this an invaluable camp for our offensive and defensive linemen. We believe the consistency of our offensive and defensive lines can be attributed directly to the skills and techniques that the athletes learn and to the knowledge gained by myself and my staff from the high level of coaching instruction at the LOS Camp. Coach Horner and his staff are second to none.”
