On June 18, 2011 at Marcus Foster Stadium (Gratz Field) in the North Philly off Hunting Park Ave. was one of the best camps that ever hit the scene for football. Players from all around the city were gathered together to work on their individual skills and improve as a football player. The players would come from as north as Washington High School in Northeast High School & all the way south as Bartram High School in South West Philly. The event would start the day before with talking about what it takes to get into college and the process of getting paper work done for the college.

The camp would have over 200 football players who would show their talents off in front of scouts including SCOUT.COM. The players would constantly talk about the enjoyment of them being able to play with and against other top athletes in the area. One player, Keith Jenkins from Prep Charter Football Program, who plays Offensive Tackle & Defensive End, would show up big in lineman drills. He would be the fastest lineman out there and would show his great technique and footwork. He would describe his experience as, "this is once in a lifetime, i'm getting the opportunity to workout and learn how to become a better football player with one of the league best football players".

That player who is one of the best, was none other than Jahri Evans of the New Orleans Saints. He is one of the most respected football players in the league for his ability as a lineman to block for Super Bowl Champs in 2010. Jahri, not only was an 4th round pick but played at a D2 school on a academic scholarship. He was joined by 4 other NFL undrafted players, who have made the NFL a place for their skills. Dominique Curry (St. Louis Rams-WR), Taj Smith (Ind. Colts- WR), Jameel McClain (Baltimore Ravens- LB) & Curtis Brinkley (San Diego Chargers- RB) and a future pro in Shariff Floyd (Florida Gator) all helped out during the camp with giving instructions and supporting the future college football prospects from the city.

After talking to the NFL & High School Players, they talked about how they enjoyed the camp and give much thanks to the sponsors (Modell's, Chick-fil-A, Powerade, L4T, KAPLAN, Triumph Baptist Church & the School District of Philadelphia). Also on hand was District XII Chairman, Robert Coleman, who talked about how important it is to have events like these in order to improve the awareness of sports in the city and getting the kids the opportunity to see what it takes to be a pro.
