Greene County football camps are next week at the practice fields next to the middle school on the south edge of Jefferson. Head Coach Caden Duncan says there are camps for grades 9-12 and for grades 5-8. “This week we’re going in the evenings with our high school camp every day Monday through Friday except for Tuesday. We’ll focus on our middle school camp Tuesday and that’s our fifth through eighth graders for two-and-a-half hours.”

The coach added that the high school camp is where fine tuning begins. Throughout the summer, players have been lifting weights, learning the playbook, and going through plays. The Rams have also been in some 7-on-7 passing exhibitions in recent weeks.

Family Week goes through the weekend for all Iowa high school and middle school athletes, meaning no practices, camps, drills, workouts, or instruction from school coaches. There is also no use of school facilities this week.
