Football Camps:
Jackson Creek
does not require players to attend summer football camps, but any type
of football activity that a player can participate in will help him for
the upcoming season. A local camp to consider is
at Bloomington High School South.

Equipment Needed:
JCMS
provides players with helmets, shoulder pads, knee, thigh, and hip
pads, plus all game equipment. Players also receive their
first
mouthpiece for free. Players are responsible for their own
practice pants and jersey. Cleats are also recommended to
have.
Any additional pads or protective gear
will need to be provided by the players. Once
the school year begins the players will store their football gear in
the JCMS locker room.
