The Manning Passing Academy helps mentor rising high school football players. In addition, these players will gain knowledge from practice, film sessions and lectures. Top college players from around the country are invited as counselors.
Though Eli and Payton Manning were legendary quarterbacks, the camp isn’t limited to one position. According to the site, in order to create more well-rounded players, the camp is open to wide receivers, running backs and tight ends.
The camp was originally founded in 1996 by Archie Manning at Tulane. Around 1,200 high school players participate in the camp.
As part of the camp’s festivities, the college quarterbacks will participate in an open-to-the-public event that will demonstrate their abilities and skills.
