Have you ever thought you had an idea that could change people’s lives, an idea that at the time may have only made sense to you?  Did you follow through with your idea?  Did you at least explore it?

In the summer of 2003, my partner and I had just such an idea.  It wasn’t original by any means but on the West Coast, it would be totally new.  Surfing the web there are tons of camps available each summer for high school football players.  There are team camps, both day and overnight.  There are specialty camps for quarterbacks, wide receivers, running backs, basically all the skill guys.  And there are the no contact, get a T-shirt; meet the former pro player camps. 

So, what are there for linemen?  Well, there are those “big man” camps where players get to bench press, squat and drag tires against each other in competition.  While these camps are a great distraction from the doldrums of summer weight lifting, they aren’t improving the play of linemen.  Then there are the college camps.  Highly skilled coaches in great programs but too few to ensure each player the individual attention they should get if they are to improve.

Enter LinemenInc Camps.

LinemenInc was virtually formed and outlined on an airline cocktail napkin.  It took us an entire year to prepare and launch our camp.  58 players showed up for that camp and financially we took it in the shorts.  At the same time, looking at the players and what they were getting out of it, we new we had to find the way to continue, to spread the word and hold another camp the following year.

In just five short years, from our very humble beginnings, LinemenInc has continued to grow and improve and provide a product unlike any other.  Attending a LinemenInc Camp, whether as a player or a coach, is unlike any other camp experience you’ve had, or are likely to have. 

This year, we are opening a second camp in Southern California.  Already we are receiving registration for this much needed camp to be held in Long Beach.  Many players and coaches have previously not been able to attend do to the travel distance.  Now there is no excuse.  We are answering calls and fielding questions regarding camp, from as far away as Alaska, Idaho, Iowa and even Georgia.

There is value in that which makes you better.  There is growth in that which is a new experience.  Join us this summer for one of the most challenging experiences of your life: LinemenInc.
