NFL Alumni and NFL Teams are making safe, non-contact football instruction more accessible than ever with a series of community-based, summer day-camps produced by Pro Sport Experience.

On behalf of the NFL Alumni Association, the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers and Tennessee Titans, Pro Sports Experience brings NFL Alumni Heroes and professional, USA Football Certified coaches to more than 80 communities in the summer.

Available to kids ages 6-14 years old, kids learn to run, throw, catch, defend, form-block, form-tackle and compete from the most experienced and famous coaches in the game.

Through safe, non-contact football instruction, the objective is to teach athletic skills, football skills and life skills to kids.

Moreover, by developing more athletic, competitive and confident players, Pro Sports Experience helps grow participation in upcoming flag and tackle leagues.

“Especially in the summer, families want football development options without the risk of contact,” says Tom Finks, President of Pro Sports Experience. “NFL Alumni players realize that muscle memory training and development can be done accomplished without contact. In the long run, non-contact summer camps are a better approach for development and preparation.  Everyone can benefit.”

The move to “non-contact summer camps” is boosted by fact that Flag Football is now America’s fastest growing recreational sport. Like tackle players, the flag players want the best skill development coaches and programs available for their benefit.

Pro Sports Experience non-contact summer camp markets include Atlanta (GA), Connecticut, Chicago (IL), Dallas (TX), Kansas City (KS and MO), New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

NFL Alumni Heroes from your favorite local team provide supplemental instruction.
These are former players, fathers and family men that get great reward by teaching kids through football.
