COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – This year’s Pro Football Camp will be held June 24-26, from 8-11:30 am each day at John Venezia Community Park.

“Nowhere else in Southern Colorado are you going to e able to get with pros, we have 19 NFL players this year. To be able to get with 19 current and former athletes and just learn all the drills we take them through but not only that it’s the character stuff too,” said Paul Browning, a former NFL receiver who graduated from Widefield high school and played for CSU-Pueblo.

The event is for boys and girls ages 7-14 years old. The three-day camp will consist of drills, advancement of football skills, and character building, all taught by current and former NFL players, including several from Colorado Springs.

“To pay it forward back to the community that raised me that I grew up in it means the world to me so I take this opportunity to reconnect with my hometown and pour into the youth here,” said JoJo Domann, Pine Creek alum and current Tennessee Titans linebacker.
