Craig Nall first tried private football coaching after he retired recently from the NFL, these days he has a more impressive idea he wants to try in the land of his youth.
The previous Alexandria Senior High quarterback who struck gold at Northwestern State after transferring from LSU, and who spent the better part of his NFL career in Green Bay as being a backup for Favre fined, wants to expand his private coaching business in to a group project which could benefit many young football players across the country.
The result is YourFootballNetwork.com, a coaching and mentoring program he founded that's targeted to youth and secondary school football players. The group's first coaching effort inside a 3-day format, following the experience of running five one-day camps in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, where he and the family now live, is going to be at the inaugural Cenla Football Experience April 28-30 at Louisiana College.
The other group founders with Nall are Brad Cieslak, Andy Little and Remy Hamilton, whose names may very well not recognize because, like Nall, their NFL careers weren't profound. Yet, together they've got 40-plus combined numerous years of playing experience and off-season management.
This really is the launching pad because of their idea, and what else appropriate place compared to backyard of Nall's native city?
He and his awesome cohorts hope this Cenla Football Experience is the start of something big. Lola Tatupu jerseysTalking about big, they've got guys like former Packers offensive lineman Marco Rivera, a huge, three-time Pro Bowl pick, on the roster of former NFL types that will coaching with the three-day affair. Peabody graduate Emanuel Arceneaux, who's signed using the Minnesota Vikings, is also scheduled to become there. Case likely wouldn't have been possible, Nall says, without the sponsorship of Mid State Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center.
The first day, Thursday, along with the last, Saturday, will probably be for varsity high school players only, while all K-12 groups is going to be served Friday, including even a two-hour session for K-5th grade youngsters.
"This is a thing I've been looking to do for some time," says Nall. "I hold the resources along with the ability to do it."
Unlike some football camps, through the all players whatsoever positions, not just one specialized position. The three-day charge is $175, which Nall says is "an affordable price and a great value" for youngsters who're getting instruction from NFL veterans.
Jointly who admits he sometimes privately disagreed while using advice of some quarterback coaches in his past who had never taken easy from center, Nall says it's "a little simpler to pay attention and listen and take value" away from a session by having an instructor who has played the position well enough to make it for the NFL. Matt Hasselbeck jerseys"Everything will probably be regimented, finito, no more wasted time," says Nall.
"The kids will always be doing something, whether it be full speed or hearing chalk talk."
