2007 3rd Annual Kansas
High School Exposure Camp
***If you have a scheduling conflict and can't make both days, come for one! Check out our daily rate!***
*Players- check out the Camp Alumni who are now playing at the next level!!*
The JJD Sports Kansas High School Exposure Camp is back for the summer of 2007!! Last summer in only our second year the camp more than doubled in size, and we're looking to follow it up with an even better camp this year. We will once again have college coaches from all across the state, including Division II, Junior College, and NAIA coaches working the camp. They are not there just to evaluate the players, but will actually be working the camp at their specific positions to teach everything they can to the athletes. We plan to have a special guest speaker at lunch everyday, as well as some plans for new features so stay attuned to the website for any new developments.
The first two years of this camp have seen a number of great players who will end up playing college ball somewhere, and we hope to take that number even higher for 2007. Please follow the links below to find out all about the camp, and signup by May 1st to take advantage of our "Early Bird" discount!! You can also read below to see what took place at least year's camp, as well as watch the video of the newscast that KAKE TV ran on the camp last summer!

This exciting camp is for high school players and college coaches in the state of Kansas. We're working very hard to pair up the high school players in Kansas with the college coaches in the state, and there will be numerous coaches from various schools on hand to work with players who are interested in playing college football. The camp is open to all incoming 9th-12th graders as well as any graduates who have not yet signed with a school. And remember, it's never to early to start preparing for next season. There is a spot for everyone so use this as a great opportunity to get on the radar of your favorite college, or to prepare yourself for the upcoming high school football season. Take advantage of all these college coaches coming to you!! At camp, each player will work on speed, agility and quickness, as well as skills challenges and 7 on 7 games. The first day there will also be a combine where we test the athletes in their 40 time, vertical leap, pro agility, 3-cone, bench, and an evaluation in their offensive and defensive position by a college coach. Each player will get to choose an offensive and defensive position to work on each day, and will have plenty of time to get some valuable work with their position coaches. The camp is going to run June 2nd-3rd, and we are working very hard to put together a great staff for you.

Our first day of camp is going to feature a combine for the athletes to participate in that will give us a chance to evaluate each player's "recruiting numbers." We all know that a 4.4 40 yard dash time, or a 35 inch vertical leap does not mean a player will be a superstar, or by not having those numbers does not mean an athlete cannot be a great football player, but college coaches do look at it as a way to evaluate a player. We will have our college coaches instructing and timing all of our combine tests so you will be sure to get the most accurate times and measurements possible.
In addition to the actual field work that each player will get to participate in with their position coach, we will also conduct our own combine at camp to measure each athlete's core speed, strength and agility skills. These results will be posted on our website, as well as made available to all the college coaches in attendance. The basic combine tests are as follows, but we also plan to add others as the program is fully developed.
Height / Weight / 40 yard dash / 20 yard dash / 10 yard dash
Vertical Leap / Pro Agility / Bench Press Reps / 3-Cone Drill
(A player is not required to participate)
(Due to new NCAA rules no D1 coaches are allowed to attend FB camps)
(coaches can change at anytime due to availability)
No other camp in Kansas will have this many college coaches in attendance evaluating you!!
JONATHAN BEASLEY
We are again welcoming back Jonathan Beasley for his second year with JJD Sports. The quarterbacks from last year took advantage of the opportunity to work with this former Kansas State University starting quarterback and now you have the chance to as well!! With Jonathan's first hand knowledge of what it takes to be successful as a dominating QB he will be able to help fine tune your technique, help you read the secondary, and teach you drills you never seen before!! Take the skills you learn from Jonathan and pick apart the opposing offenses next season!
NICK MCBROOM
The only coach to have worked every camp, Nick brings his experience from coaching at one of the junior college powerhouses in Kansas, Coffeyville. Coach McBroom will be working with the linebackers at the camp teaching them how to read better as well as taking the proper steps to deliver a blow. This past season at Coffeyville Nick had two notable LB's transfer to D1 schools, Larry Asante (Nebraska) and Wyman Alexander (Washington State). Take advantage of this time to work 1-on-1 with Coach McBroom and who knows maybe you could be the next one going to a D1 school.
TIM SCHAFFNER
Joining us for the first year to work with the defensive backs at the exposure camp, Coach Schaffner will take this opportunity to evaluate all the athletes in attendance to see if they have what it takes to make it at the junior college level. Leading the Grizzly defense to a top ranking in the Jayhawk conference, Coach Schaffner also helped Kensington, KS native Austin Panter receive NJCAA National Player of the Year honor, a first ever for a defensive player from Butler. Take advantage of this opportunity to be instructed and evaluated by Coach Schaffner and maybe you can be the next athlete to receive this honor as well.
A.J. BLAZEK
Rejoining the JJD Sports Camp staff, Coach Blazek will coach up the offensive line. With his experience as a player at the University of Iowa and in the AFL with the Chicago Rush, Coach Blazek knows what it takes to be successful on and off the field. Using this knowledge to work with guys at Iowa as a graduate assistant and now as the offensive line coach at Ft. Hays State, Coach Blazek has not only helped to prepare many athletes for the next level but also taught them how to play at their full potential. JJD Sports is once again excited to have Coach Blazek help out with this years camp so take full advantage of this opportunity to work with a great coach and maybe you can be his next protégé.

This
is an event we continue to try to work into our camp schedule that gives the local media a chance to see
the next crop of great Kansas high school football players, and possibly the
next college star! We work hard to get media outlets such as TV stations,
radio stations, newspapers, magazines and websites on hand to take footage
and interview the athletes at camp. There will be a designated times where the athletes will be available for the media to
talk to. If an athlete is not comfortable doing an interview, or does
not want to participate it is not required. This event is designed
after the media day that many colleges put on for their new team each year
to introduce them to the public. It will be a great opportunity for
the young athletes to work on public communication, as well as receive
exposure for themselves and their high school team!

The 2nd Annual JJD Sports Kansas High School Exposure Camp took place in Wichita, KS, June 10th-11th and turned out to be a great weekend! The camp more than doubled in size from the first year as young football players from across the state came to Cessna Stadium to perform for college coaches from KU, KSU, Emporia State, Washburn, Pitt State, Butler, Coffeyville and numerous other coaches across the state. The athletes went thru an NFL style combine on the first morning of camp, testing their 40 time, vertical leap, short shuttle, 3-cone drill and bench press. The results from this combine have been made available to all college coaches who participated in camp at their request. Once the Combine concluded, athletes then went thru a special Speed Development session with the Head Strength & Conditioning Coach at KU, Chris Dawson.
The rest of camp included all players going thru drills with their position coaches, and learning new techniques to help them in their upcoming season. Many of the coaches also used this time to evaluate the athletes in their group to determine if college football could be in their future. There appeared to be several prospects in the group, and some of the younger 9th & 10th graders got a head start on their peers by attending this camp to meet and learn from these college coaches at an early age.
