Players are coached by NFL veterans, college coaches, and elite high school instructors, and Offense-Defense uses NFL players and coaches and college coaches as part of its coaching staff. Offense-Defense Sports started with one instructional football camp in the summer of 1969, and states that it has been helping youth and high school athletes for over five decades. The program’s mission is to deliver football training and instruction at full contact and full speed, with a philosophy that focuses on teaching technique, not tactics, and includes instruction on how to improve stamina, speed, and agility.
Offense-Defense offers three camp types at this Mega Camp: Mega Camp Day, Mega Camp Extended Day, and Mega Camp Sleepover, all using a three-day full contact format that is non-contact compliant in areas where full-contact or pads are not allowed. The camp features college and NFL pro coaches, guest speakers and visitors, a live recruiting element seminar with a college representative onsite, streaming service and live social media engagements during the camp day, a full-time camp store set-up, written evaluations, and free online access for campers to O-D’s Placement, Recruiting, and Exposure (PREview) profile. Each player is evaluated by coaching staff and dedicated regional scouts using a modified pro-style system, with abilities ranked and evaluated using a star system and athletes ranked by position and age group, locally and nationally, using Standardized Athletic Testing, evaluations, and coach feedback.
Standard Athletic Testing (S.A.T.) is used to evaluate all measurables, and O-D’s first national ranking will be published following the event season as a pre-season ranking. Offense-Defense football camps are used to evaluate the best high school athletes for inclusion in the end-of-year Offense-Defense All-American Bowl Week, a week-long series of events including awards dinners, press conferences, the ODFL National tournament, Youth All-American Bowl Games, a youth football convention, and a coaches clinic. Eighty of the top high school athletes across the country are invited to play in the All-American Bowl showdowns, and athletes who have participated in the Bowl include Cam Newton, Dez Bryant, Joe Haden, Rolando McClain, Earl Thomas, Golden Tate, and Carlos Dunlap, with Cam Newton and Lamar Jackson named MVPs of the O-D All-American Bowl.
Offense-Defense states that over 600 O-D alumni from camps and Bowl have gone on to the NFL, that 28 of 32 NFL teams have active O-D alumni, and that O-D has the largest number of FBS Division 1 signees. Offense-Defense spoke with every pro team’s PR or Community Relations department and reports that there are hundreds of former O-D campers in the NFL. The organization also states that it puts more players in college and the NFL than any other football showcases or training organizations in the United States. Showcase locations are available nationwide with commuter and overnight options, as well as non-contact and full-contact curriculum, and players can earn an invitation with 1,000+ players to compete in 28 games once a year in cities like Dallas, Los Angeles, and Orlando, where players can play in up to 3 games a day in the summer with college and pro coaches, rules permitting.
