The IMPACT Camp hosted by Branson came to an end on Thursday as the football season draws even closer.
Eighteen teams opened the Camp on Thursday including Branson, Reeds Spring, and Forsyth. (Hollister took part in a camp at Evangel in Springfield). Through the heat and humidity the teams got to see live action in a variety of situations including straight Scrimmages, Goal Line Challenge, First and Third Down Challenges, as well as other live action opportunities. It was a chance to get an early look at your team going head to head with other schools running a number of different styles of offense and defense.
Although the heat and other factors took its toll by the end of Thursday and a number of teams decided to cut the camp short, the event was again a great success.
It was a great chance to get a look at a number of teams, some of their strengths, and some things they all need to work on.
Teams will now enter a “dead” period where they cant practice or have any meaningful sports contact with coaches. Fall practices get underway bright and early on Monday July 31st.
As far as football goes, Jamborees will be held on Friday Night, Aug 11th with the regular season kicking off Aug 18th.
