Chris Rubio and I get asked hundreds of questions per day. We write blogs to make finding answers to these questions that much easier. The most common question we have been asked in 2014 is…. “Which camps should I attend this year?”
I can understand why this question has come up so often. Chris Sailer Kicking & Rubio Long Snapping have taken on more camps, of many different types, than ever before. We have done this to create opportunity. After 14 years in the business, we know the value of great instruction, the value of education, and perhaps most importantly, the value of exposure. We have completed the circle and now offer every camp necessary to stay ahead of the competition and offer the most exposure possible to our athletes.
Las Vegas, “TOP 12” & “Event Elite”, US Army All-America Bowl, Underclassman “Invite Only”, Fall / Spring / Summer 1-Day Camps, East Bay Youth All-American Games, Australian Scout Camps, College & NFL Camps, Alabama / LSU / Texas A&M / UCLA / Oregon / USC. Many have tried to copy the model that Chris Sailer Kicking & Rubio Long Snapping have created, but there is a reason why we are #1 in the World. Experience, real relationships with everyone that matters in this business & the best instruction available across the world. If you want to make it as a kicker, punter or long snapper….
