My freshman QB, who will likely be my varsity starter next year, has told me that his dad wants to send him to a qb camp this off-season and wanted to know if i had any recommendations.
I am familiar with the camps that Darin Slack runs and that was my first thought. The kid mentioned going to the Manning Passing Academy. Have any of you ever had kids go to either of these camps that could make a recommendation for which one he should attend?
The kid has potential to be a pretty good HS quarterback. I am wanting to steer him toward the camp where he will get the most benefit from a technique standpoint not so much for exposure.
thanks

The Manning Camp looks like a cool experience with the Mannings and all the various QBs (and supposedly since it's not tied to a school it's about fundamentals over recruiting), so if he has the money I don't see why not, so long as they don't expect it to transform him into Peyton Manning and you and the Dad understand it may or may not translate into anything usable on the field. In other words, it's a little better for his football career than a trip to Disney World but don't get your hopes up.

If he wants to be a better QB, go to NFA. If he wants a cool experience, some nice gear, and to meet some guys he watches on TV, go to the Manning camp.

Thanks for the responses. NFA camps was the way I was leaning, but I just wanted to hear some other opinions.
