Mr. Football Camp | About Us | Youth Football Camp Information

About US

The Mr. football camp was founded by Boo Andersen in 2015. This camp was created to give Utah youth players ages 6-14 an opportunity to get in shape for their football season while learning the fundamental techniques that so many youth coaches fail to teach their young players. Our main focus is speed training, position drills, and the proper technique to minimize injury. To assure we give each kid the quality coaching and attention they deserve, we only accept a limited number of players. Our coaching staff consists of current and alumni collegiate and NFL players.
