The Mustang High School football program is gearing up for camp season and Summer Pride with school ending and the countdown to Friday nights in the Fall officially under way.
MHS is hosting multiple camps as well as its annual Summer Pride program with activities set up for athletes in grades ranging from pre-K to 12th.
Each camp and workout features what the staff calls “vertical alignment” which allows youth and middle school players to start familiarizing themselves with schemes and concepts the high school team uses. The Mustang Youth Football Association also uses vertical alignment with the community’s little league teams.
You can sign up for all camps by visiting www.characterleadercamps.com.
