-Shannon

Thanks for the email. We’re loving it. It is well-organized and our son is having a ton of fun.

Thanks!
-Christopher

It is going very well! They are teaching basic fundamentals and are challenging the more advanced kids.
They showed great judgement today taking them indoors when the temperatures when over 95 degrees.
The Camp is very good and I will recommend it to others.
-Louis

Nick is having fun! He was REAL excited about getting the autograph (doesn’t even know of the player but says he’s awesome) and water bottle and bag.
Thanks

-Debbie

My son, Mike, is enjoying camp and has no complaints.
-Annette

He is having a great experience, thanks.

my son loves football, so any football experience is amazing in his eyes. He enjoys the boys he is meeting this week; he enjoys the coaches and the activities
-Shannon

Lets just say my son usually wakes up in the summer about 9am. Past 2 days he has been up at 630am waiting to go to camp. He loves it very very much. I thank Jeff Peters for convincing me to send my son to this camp!
-Dylan

My son is loving it so far!!!

-Michelle D

My son is having an excellent experience at the camp. We appreciate that they are addressing all skills of football and are making it enjoyable for the children. The counselors are doing an incredible job as well.
Thank you for the opportunity!
-Nate W.

Adam is enjoying the week, as usual. And, the only thing he’d change is to have more scrimmaging (of course). From an adult’s perspective, it’s well organized and lead, and a good experience. Now, if you could just do something about the heat. . . Thanks!
-Kate

My son Tyler is really enjoying the camp thus far! He says he is learning a lot. I appreciate the fact that some activities were moved indoors today due to the extreme heat. Looking forward to a great rest of the week.
-Christine W.

Rileys response………”AWESOME” this is his 2nd year & asks that nothing be changed:) lol Love to see him so excited!!
-Denise W.

Thank you! My son is very excited about his experience so far. This is our first year with the camp. Seems very organized. My husband dropped him off the first morning and appreciated the information shared by the camp director that morning.
So far so good!
-Kris and Mike

All is well!

-Jeff

Rex likes everything and is having fun.
-Judith B.

My son, Paul and his friend Rex seem to be having a great time. His responses about his day have been pretty positive, which a great sign, because he usually finds something to complain about, and tends to focus on the negative, and lets that consume his opinion. But I am happy to report that that hasn’t happened! (The scale I use is: if he says it’s okay that means is quite good. If he says Mom, I am not going ever again, DON’T ever sign me up for that again then I know he was pretty unhappy. And his comments are it’s good which means it’s a step above it’s okay.
At pick up and drop off I am impressed by the coaches, they look like they are having fun too and enjoying their job. Sometimes you come across coaches who yell too much and don’t keep their frustrations in check. Luckily I haven’t witnessed that this week, and I don’t think I will.

As of today, 2 days of camp, we are planning to sign up again next year.
One thought of improvement: Any chance you could speak to Mother Nature about the temperatures? Just kidding!
Thanks again for the great opportunity.
-Deb S.

Thanks for reaching out! Alex is having a lot fun this week so far, and the only comment he told me is that he wants more games!!! Not sure if it is possible, but he wants 2 games a day
-Helen

My son Jonathan loves the camp. Every day he has come home raving about the camp and how much he is learning!

-Dana Z.

Despite the intense heat and humidity this week, my son, Avery, 9, has come home sweaty and smiling every day! He is having a blast! This is his third year at Eagles camp and he still loves it. He’s a kid of few words, but he has told me he likes his coaches a lot and is excited about “Superbowl Friday.” Thanks for making this a great experience for him once again!
-Amy

Thank you for soliciting opinions. This is our 3rd Eagles camp at Newtown and I recruited 3 others to join this year. I appreciate the no-nonsense tone the counselors invoke when the boys are acting up it helps the kids get the most out of their day. Garry Cobb’s visit was also a highlight.
-James

Very happy with everything–last year we did the ny giants camp and by far you guys are very organized!
-Denise s.

Ben loves football camp. He really enjoys the drills and the games and is tired every day. Keep up the good work!
-Beth G.

My son Cameron is having an AWESOME time. I like that he is learning so much. He will be going into 6th grade and this will only be his 2nd season, so it is nice to see he might be caught up in the skills required.
-Janet

My son loves it hes is very exited every day to go thanks
-philip

His first day was yesterday and he was so excited to tell me about everything he did.
-Amy

My son is just about 12 years old and says it’s the best camp he has ever been to!!! We’ll be back next year!
-Susan

He attended last year @ USTC Downingtown, and liked it.
But, he’s LOVING it!

-Christine

Please let all the staff at West Chester Pa. Eagle Football Camp know that their staff and program are Excellent!
My son Tim says the camp is a fun time and great experience.
We look forward to coming again next year.
-Joe

Andrew is having a great week, despite the heat!
He especially enjoys the learning/playing the various positions in the AM and the games are his favorite, of course!
Also, Andrew has had very nice things to say about Coach Mike.
Keep up the good work!

-Jeanine R.

My son Matthew is having a great time. This is his 2nd year attending camp. From the time he walked in the door on Monday morning, he was welcomed (and recognized) by all the coaches from last year, including Coach Al and his son Coach Devin. He hasn’t stopped talking about all the coaches including coaches Reese, Mike, AJ, etc (I apologize if I forgot one but Matt is now sleeping and I want to make sure I reply to your email). Matt and I are greeted each morning at drop off by EVERY coach/assistant. Matt is normally the first person to arrive since I drop off his younger brother at summer camp at Chesterbrook Academy and they go out of their way to make him feel special and that he is with friends. Although he also attends camp and could play with his brother in the morning before Eagles camp begins, he insists on hanging out with the coaches even though he is the only player there at that time. They ALL get out of there chairs to shake my hand and welcome Matt by having a catch. Each morning, the coaches compliment Matthew on his abilities and efforts from the previous day. It is evident that all the coaches are FULLY committed to making camp a memorable experience and you can tell that they are genuine in their actions.
Please thank EVERY person involved with the West Chester camp on behalf of Matthew and me. Matthew (and his younger brother Connor) are already talking about Eagles camp next year.
I look forward to watching the “Super Bowl” this Friday.
-Tom R.

My kids are having a great time! This is our second year and I think we’ll be back next year. Thank you for putting this camp on. It is very well run.

-The Breckers.

You are doing a great job! The camp is very organized and professional. The coaches are great and best of all – my son loves it. Thank You!!
-Chris

My son is enjoying his week at the Eagles Youth Football camp. He has attended this camp for th past few years. I think the camp is wonderful! In addition to the football skills, he has learned many important life skills such as getting along with all kinds of different kids. Thanks for continuing to make this a positive experience for him.
-Kathy V.

My son is 8 and has never played football before so this has been a great way for him to learn the basics of the game. He is really enjoying himself and looks forward to each day.
-Beth

It is Matthew’s 3rd year attending the West Chester camp. Matt has been looking forward to this camp all year. Although Matt is a skilled player he is always learning from coach Al Crosby and his staff. They take him to the next level by preparing him for the upcoming season. He keeps attending the eagles camp for the coaches who he has the greatest respect for.

-Bill V.

We are loving it so far – Cory is one of the younger kids but he seemed to really enjoy it and learn a lot.
-erika

So far, my son loves the camp. He is really enjoying meeting the former players. The coaches are very nice. He is ready to come back next year.
Thank you for bringing this great camp to Delaware.
-Susan P.

My son is having a great time in camp this week. Everyone does a great job and he has learned a lot over the past two days. He was very nervous about attending camp without any friends, but everyone there has made him and the others feel like they are part of a team.
He talks about camp for at least an hour once we arrive home. Please let your staff know that they are really doing a great job!

-Rick D.

So far so good!!! Thanks for the opportunity.
-Amy C.

So far all is going well. My son is having a fabulous time and everyone is friendly at pick up.

Tyler loved the Eagles Youth Football Camp at Lancaster, PA. He’s attended many different camps for sports over the years and he said this was his all-time favorite. He learned alot and was challenged.
-Theresa

Jimmy says he likes it, it’s good! He told me about the work out routine and that he won two games. He’s having a great experience with this being his first football training experience at age 6 3/4.
Please tell all the coaches thank-you.
-Cinda M.

My children attended Lehigh Universities camp last weekand they are enjoying this camp much more. They feel that they are learning more and love it. But all in all we love it and we love the interaction between the coached and parents.
-Olgie

Going great! Staff is awesome.
-Robin

This is Erike’s 3rd year here with the Eagles camp, and LOVES every day of it! He was so happy to see his coaches return for another year, and doesn’t mind the heat – when he is with special people/coaches whom truely care about the kids at the Bethlehem camp. We weren’t sure if we were going to be able to come to camp this year, however, with a phone call from Joe wondering where Erike was, and the help from the Philadelphia Eagles Youth Camp…made it all happen for Erike, and I along with Erike appreciate it deeply….

Erike has his sights on the Eagles helmet this year!!! winking
Thank you so much for a wonderful program,
-Ingrid

I just wanted you to know that Jared is having a wonderful experience at your camp. After just two days, he seems much more confident with his football ability. Also, he is having a lot of fun which is just as important. You have put the fun in football for him, and he just can’t stop talking about it.
Thanks again for a great experience!
-Cindy G

Anthony and Robert are having a lot of fun!

-Sue O

Just wanted to let you know that my son is having a great time at the Medford camp. He’s thrilled with the experience he’s having!
-Rebecca E

My kids are loving this. Neither of my boys have played football and so far the have come home tried and hot, but have loved every second.
-Rodney

He loved his experience there and looks forward to doing it again next year
-Linda

he really likes it and has learned alot. Thanks!

-Rebecca

My son is having best time. Everyday he comes home even more excited than the day before. I’m glad I signed him up for the program.
-Jacquelyn

It seems to be going well!
-Scott

I have three boys at camp this week. They all are loving it. They especially like the fact that the drills are “real football” and they get actual factual feedback about their skill levels. They are really timing them and allowing the boys to set personal goals. My boys are pleasantly exhausted and starving at 3pm. That is a true sign of a successful camp!!
