Ute Football Camp

This past June we put Brandon in a football camp at the U!  We first got the idea from a teammate that wanted him to go to the one at the Y.  Mike said, um, I'm sure the U has one and it's closer and it's not BYU.  ha ha! So, we looked into and sure enough, the Utes have a camp!
 He got to meet Kyle Whittingham.  He was coached by the actual Utah football PAC-12 coaches and players!  It was nice that he had 'line' coaches, not just quarterback etc trying to tell him how to play the line.
 He played against some BIG boys!  Sons of the line players and coaches....big Poly kids.  They were all the same age...but B held his own! It was a good test for him since he doesn't have a lot of competition in Kaysville yet.


It was HOT! Second week of June.  HOT! Like upper 90's and on the fields were they were playing it was 100 degrees for sure.

 We signed him up for 2 sessions. They play 3 days, take the rest of the week off, and then play 3 more days.  He wasn't wanting to go back 2nd session because it was so hard the first session, but he went and kicked butt!

 We took turns going up to the U to have lunch with him. Since he didn't go with any buddies, he was alone for lunch and that wasn't fun. He did meet a couple of boys, but I think he liked it when we came up.

 Sydney came with me one day and took all these pictures.








 Pretty creative! I love them all!







 He'll do camp again this year.  He might go with a buddy from his football team this year and we are thinking just one session...but it was awesome!!
