About
NFL Alumni Youth Football Camps offer non-contact football skills training that includes dynamic warm ups, individual skills stations, small space games such as 2v2 and 4v4 platforms, and team competitions. Campers take part in skill contests, skill challenges, team tournaments, and a championship game, along with an NFL Alumni Hero Message and Eat like a Pro education. The program also includes life skills lessons, highlight awards, prizes, and a Friday Awards and Recognition Ceremony.
• Ages: 6–14 years old
• Schedule: 5-day, Monday–Friday camps with Half-Day (8:30 am–11:30 am) and Full-Day (9:00 am–2:00 pm) options; Extended Skills Boost Hours add one hour of focused skills, football IQ, and position fundamentals
Pro Sports Experience has operated NFL Alumni Youth Football Camps for 24 years and has run over 900 community-based youth sports camps since 2002. Camps are led by professional football coaches and professional educators from the college and high school ranks, with a better than 10:1 student-to-instructor ratio, and camp directors include football coaches and former NFL players. NFL Alumni players are described as fathers and family men who enjoy teaching kids through football, and camps typically include supplemental instruction from 3 or 4 different NFL Alumni players per week.
The program states that it offers safe, non-contact football programs designed to develop skills, grow confidence, and make the experience fun, while focusing on the science of skill development. It notes that while kids learn to run, throw, catch, and compete like an NFL player, they also learn essential life skills that remain with them, including Vital 5 Life Skill Lessons.
Pro Sports Experience is an officially licensed partner of the Chicago Bears, Green Bay Packers, Tennessee Titans, and the National Football League Alumni Association. A 30-minute documentary titled Legacy of Hope, produced by Emmy Award winners Mike Leonard and Mary Kay Wall, followed NFL Alumni players and Pro Sports Experience working with Parents for Peace and Justice and the Boys and Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee to serve at-risk kids in Chicago neighborhoods.
The leadership team includes Tom Finks (Owner/President, Pro Sports Experience, LLC), Mike Gross (National Operations Director), Lisa Finks (Chief Financial Officer, Attorney), Kaitlin Palmer (Communications Manager), and NFLA Directors Scott Baum, Max Donato, John Grogan, Kris Haines, Tony Johnson, and Thomas Miller.
Parents are asked to send a snack and drinks for half-day camps, and a packed lunch and drinks for full-day camps, with a note that no nut or peanut products are allowed. Campers are instructed to wear athletic shoes and athletic shorts, bring a refillable water bottle labeled with their name, sunscreen, gym shoes for indoor use, and optional but recommended cleats. First-day check-in opens 45 minutes before camp and requires a parent or guardian to walk the camper through, drop-off Tuesday through Friday is allowed up to 15 minutes before start time, and pick-up is at camp end with a parent or guardian required, with coaches able to wait up to 15 minutes. For those registered for Extended Skills Boost Hours, pick-up is 60 minutes after camp concludes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.
Parent feedback includes comments that “everything was exceptional” and that the extra offense session was “well worth it,” that coaches treated every child with respect, professionalism, friendliness, and enthusiasm for football, and that it was “such a positive experience” that one camper told friends about it for the next year.
