I have a QB that would benefit greatly from a QB camp that comes near to our town. He would get a lot more detailed instruction than I could give him. Problem is his family doesn't have the money to send him to the camp. I am sure this has happened at some point in someones program.

There are specialty camps like QB camps or kickers camps that are run by coaches that have much more expertise and experience in these areas than I do. I had a QB go to one about 7 years ago and he came back like a new QB. What do you do?

Do you pay for it out of your own pocket?

Do you have something like this budgeted into your program budget? (For those that are blessed with a budget)

Do you go to your booster club and ask for some help for one kid?

I do/have done the following- set aside money from fund raising to assist athletes with this and pay all or part of the entry, I've covered all or part using my own money to include at times travel expenses- hotel, gas etc, I've asked for assistance from our boosters and I've worked to host these camps as often your players can attend free or at a reduced cost as the host school. I've found that QB's and kicker's are generally the one's who most benefit from camps so I also let them know when we fund raise that part of what they earn will go toward getting them to one or more of these.
