Summer Calendar 2024
(Grade 7-8)
This calendar M.S. Calendar shows our football schedule and important dates for the 2024 football season. Dirty Dozens, Skill Specific Camp and Skill Days are strongly encouraged but not required. Strength, speed, agility, and quickness training will be developed during these workout sessions. Players who make 12 out of 18 workouts will be given a helmet sticker and T-Shirt signifying membership in the prestigious Dirty Dozen Club. The Skills Camp counts towards Dirty Dozen and is a great opportunity to be coached at your positions by the Varsity Football Coaches.
Eight days of TEAM CAMP have been scheduled and players need to realize that this is football practice. We will begin to install our offense and defense for the upcoming season during these camp days. The middle school will be running the same offensive and defensive schemes as the freshman, junior varsity and varsity program. Absences by any team member will adversely affect our team’s success in 2024!
The goal of the M.S. program is to successfully prepare ALL of our players to join the High School program. The 2024 season will bring a challenging schedule. If we are to be successful we must put the TEAM before individual accomplishment. You are part of an ELITE program that is well respected throughout the state. It is your job to appreciate Avon’s past football tradition and build on it. If you can follow the simple formula: Hit, Hustle, Know your Assignment, and Care about your teammates, I have no doubt that “Those Who Stay Will Be Champions” If you have any questions 8th graders contact Coach Kocar ([email protected]) , and 7th graders contact Coach Sayers ([email protected])
Yours in football,
Coach Elder
