1. 2012 Football Off-Season Informational Meeting

2. Purpose of Meeting Many events scheduled in the next couple of months designed to better prepare our team and your player for the 2012 season. We want to maximize the participation of our players in these events if possible

3. Purpose of Meeting Need a commitment from the players and parents to help get the students where they need to be. We have a number of students who are working and need to adjust their work schedules now in order to be available for future events.

4. Purpose of Meeting Nothing is mandatory, however, it definitely leaves a positive impression when we see players being committed in the offseason and at certain events. Hard work by committed individuals is the only way for us to become a TEAM.

9. Summer BFS We Want Them in the Weight Room!! I have been involved with the Football program at Smyrna in some way for the past 22 years. – There is a direct correlation with the commitment from our players in the weight room and how well those same players and teams perform on the field. All of the players that earned post season honors last year were committed to the weight room!!

10. Summer BFS Summer lifting will start June 18 th We will be lifting two days a week Mondays and Thursdays from 6:00-7:30 pm We are aware of vacations and work – This is why we are having the meeting – The later time allows for rides – We are only asking for 2 days for BFS More than just lifting, this is a time for Teambuilding, Speed and Strength

11. NUC Combine National Underclassmen Combine Date June 8 th -10 th NUC Website-http://nationalunderclassmen.com Cost-will be reduced because Smyrna is hosting.

12. NUC Elite 100 Date June 15 th -17 th If selected as top 100 in the East for your position and grade you will be invited back for the Elite 100 the following week. Unbelievable opportunity to see who the best are in this area and in your positions.

13. Positive Training Team Camp Smyrna High School on Wednesday nights Starting June 20 th from 6:00-8:30 pm. Exception will be Thursday July 5 th. Helmets and shoulder pads. The cost is $60.00 per player. The camp will consist of practice time and 7 on 7 time each day with Smyrna High School Staff. This is a great opportunity to show the coaches what you can do and prepare for the upcoming season.

14. Positive Training Team Camp We are hoping that with a lot of participation from the rising freshman class that the players will have an opportunity to work with the HS staff as a group and team to better prepare themselves for the upcoming season.

15. Positive Training Team Camp Other teams will be invited and have an opportunity to attend. We moved to a weekly format so that we can accommodate more players. We know that vacations will be taken so if you go away you only miss one day not the entire camp. Equipment handout for the Positive Training Team Camp will be after Lifting on June 18 th for those players that are not attending the NFL Team camp.

16. Pre-Season Practice Practice officially starts August 15 th We need the players here so scheduling vacations before the 15 th is very helpful in avoiding conflicts. I will have a Pre-Season Schedule prepared over the summer and sent out to all the players as soon as it is finalized.

17. Smyrna Athletic Boosters I am always looking for parents who may be interested in helping the program out in different ways. We need help behind the scenes sometimes and parents have always been helpful. One great way to get involved is to be an active participant in our Athletic Boosters. There is a meeting MONDAY JUNE 11 TH in the cafeteria at 7:00 pm. I would highly encourage you to attend and become a part of the booster club. Please contact me if you are interested in helping in other ways.
