Another main reason our camps have great value is our national exposure
opportunities.
We do the ESPN rankings nationally,
and we select the specialists to the Under Armour All-American Game.
When you look at our previous camper success with over seven hundred athletes currently playing
college football
and twenty athletes who were in NFL camps the last couple years,
you see a program that is committed to giving fair, accurate, honest evaluations
that is the most trusted in college and professional football.
I will write an article tonight
that will hopefully be on ESPN by Tuesday. It will gain momentum quickly and you guys will
be known throughout the land, and this will forever change
how you're viewed when talking about good guys in the 2012 class.
Kohl's National Scholarship Camp
in 2011 had 410 athletes in attendance.
This event is the single biggest camp in the nation as far as talented athletes
getting together and competing at the most highly respected and looked upon camp by college
coaches in the recruiting process. It's not like you're in Texas or in California
and we're comparing
different length field goals in different conditions. Everyone comes in, everyone
balls out, and
at the end of the day the best athletes, the best performances will shine.
If you do well at this camp, you're going to do well nationally. College coaches will know about you.
The Kohl's National Scholarship Camp has been the springboard
for hundreds of athletes to go on and have college success.
A Kohl's National Showcase Camp is a regional event that gives each athlete the
opportunity to be ranked, be charted, go through drill work and go through different
competitions at a single day camp.
Each January we have one special invite- only camp with limited attendance.
It's the Kohl's Underclassman Challenge
The Underclassmen Challenge provides each camper the opportunity for in-classroom
training,
on the field drill work,
and on the field competition
that is unsurpassed anywhere nationally.
The higher percentage of athletes have gone on to division one football from the
Underclassmen Challenge than any other event.
Another Kohl's exposure event for the college athlete is the College Elite Camp.
Each year we have roughly between eighty and a hundred college specialists attend
this event. Kohl's will send out a draft guide every fall to over four hundred NFL
decision makers.
Each year Kohl's receives more and more inquiries from NFL general managers,
player personnel directors, and scouting departments on the top athletes that
we've seen.
With over twenty athletes landed in NFL camps
in the last couple of years the Elite Camp is truly the proving ground for many
athletes and
has given guys opportunities they may not have otherwise received.
A Kohl's exposure camp provides an athlete the opportunity to establish
credibility that otherwise could not be established anywhere else.
