As previously announced, LinemenInc is opening a new camp this summer in Shawnee, Oklahoma.  It may only be January and with one remaining football game left to this season, you might think now is the time to kick back.  Not so, my friends!  Now is the time to prepare for the future, to make plans and execute them!

Just ask Tyler Kiel of Fishers High School, Fisher, Indiana, or Daniel Paiva of Brownfield High School, Brownfield, Texas, or perhaps Casey Fowler of Aledo High School, Aledo, Texas.  These three young men have already invested in their futures by being not only the first to register for a 2009 LinemenInc Camp but by being the very first to register for Oklahoma!  Welcome aboard gentlemen, we look forward to having you in camp.

Who else is going to be at LinemenInc Oklahoma?  While we are still assembling our coaching staff, I can tell you that Coach Micah Nall of Central Oklahoma University, Coach Monterio Witherspoon of Langston University, and Coach Grant Myers of Tabor College, are already committed and anxious for summer to arrive.  Don’t put off until tomorrow what you can do today, get registered!

SPECIAL NOTE:  LinemenInc cofounder, Dave Reinders and I will have a booth at several coaching clinic’s over the next couple of months.  Please stop by and say hello if you will be attending the Nor Cal All Sports Clinic, Burlingame, Ca., January 29-31, Frank Glazier Mega Clinics, Tulsa, Ok., February 5-7, Santa Clara, Ca., February 27-28, or Costa Mesa, Ca., March 5-7.  You’ll want to pick up your free copy of the new poster and promotional DVD.  In Tulsa, you may also want to drop in on our clinic, “Coaching Today’s Lineman”.  Dave will also being talking about long snapping, a much overlooked part of the game.

Whatever your plans, stay focused and persistent!
