Summer Football Camps Return to Southwest Florida

FORT MYERS, Fla.– Summer football camps are back in the ‘239’.

Former Tampa Bay Bucs running back Earnest Graham’s message to his campers was simple, cherish these moments.

As a Southwest Florida native and someone that made it to the top of the football pyramid, Graham can remember the impact youth football camps had on his development growing up

“Oh I love it. It takes us back obviously to our youth and when we would come out for football camps and you see all the guys from the community and you get a chance just run around and just have fun plus you get to learn a lot,” Graham said.

Getting out on the field is where he found his mentors, friends and the love for the game. 2020 changed all of that.

“It is awesome and it is a blessing you know to be able to get out on the field and get the kids back to normal activities, some sense of normalcy,” Graham said of starting summer camps again.
