Hornets to Hold Dad and Me Football Camp

By: Ed Weaver / July 14, 2011

First year head coach Steve Boyce and the rest of the Wellsboro coaching staff will be holding a Dad and Me Skills and Drills Football Camp. The camp is open to any student entering 1st - 8th grades and will take place on Saturday, August 6, 2011 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the Wellsboro Area High School Wing Field (located behind the old high school). Cost of the camp is $12.00. A drawing will also take place for a chance at being a waterboy or helping out during a 2011 varsity game. Every participant and their practice buddy* will receive a ticket (1 adult, 1 student) to a home Wellsboro Football game in the 2011 season.

* - Each participant must have an adult (over 18 years of age) with them; it can be dad, an uncle, grandfather, mother, or older sibling that will be able to continue to help develop the player's skills after the camp is over.
