Classic Series
Beantown Showcase added to National "Classic" Camp Series
Over the course of 4+ years, we have continued to improve in the planning, organization and execution of the Camps/Showcases we have run in New York (All New York, All-Northeast, Downstate Classic, Lower NY Showcase). A consistent focus on improvement and setting internal standards and goals driven by internal and external feedback has contributed to our growth. With the conclusion of the Downstate Classic it is now time to set our sites on expansion. Regional and National growth has always been on the horizon; however, we needed to be able to execute at a high level to ensure we were ready to provide the same quality experience for every player. Coming in 2024 we will launch what we are calling the “Classic Series”. Each camp will carry its own unique name. What will not change are the key elements of our events:
Small PODS (Maximizing repetitions)
Nomination process that empowers coaches to be a stakeholder in the selection process
NFL Quality filming
Diagnostic testing that focuses on protocols
Padded 1 on 1s (Where applicable)
Mindful innovation
Over the next few months, we will be announcing the locations and names. The Downstate Classic will return to Long Island in 2024 with some exciting changes (More on this will be explained in the future announcement). Our first new Showcase announcement will take us to Boston, Massachusetts for the “Beantown Showcase” which has a tentative location at the “Track at New Balance”. This state-of-the-art indoor complex is one of the best facilities in the world and its amenities will ensure players get a quality experience free from the unpredictability of weather. We are excited about this opportunity and have already begun the planning process. More information on dates and specific logistics will be announced gradually as the season approaches.
