Harvard-Westlake Summer: Football

Welcome to a summer filled with the thrill of touchdowns and the buzz of the football field – welcome to Harvard-Westlake Summer: Football Camp. At this camp, your child gets the chance to step into the shoes of a real football player, learning the ropes under the eagle-eyed guidance of none other than Aaron Huerta, Head Coach of Harvard-Westlake's Football Program. The camp's program is a well-rounded crash course in football basics. Here, each child will dive headfirst into the fundamental techniques of the game, such as the stance, the start, and the art of leverage. They'll learn how to hold their body correctly for blocking and tackling, and master the essential skills of throwing, catching, kicking, and running. But it's not all about the physical. Safety is a top priority, with every drill emphasizing the correct, safe techniques. While the kids won't be tackling or blocking at full speed, they'll be getting hands-on instruction on the fundamentals from a devoted and knowledgeable staff. And let’s not forget about the strength training – a key aspect of any football player's routine. Your child will be introduced to a basic strength training regimen and a speed and conditioning program to help them excel in the game of football. So, lace up those cleats and get ready to hit the gridiron. Harvard-Westlake Summer: Football Camp is about to kick off a summer of fun, fitness, and football.
