Attending Competitive Edge Football Camp is a great thing for our program.

  From the opening whistle, the coaching staff there initiates and stands by

 an attitude of "everyone is here to get better".  Coach Carrozzo has

assembled a great group of northern california college coaches...several of

our players, though not Division 1 prospects by any stretch of the

imagination, where able to make legitimate college contacts with several of

the coaches in attendance.  This was a huge bonus to us as it showed our

kids that hard work does in fact pay off.   We are very thankful to the

coaches at the camp for taking the time to let a few of our kids know that

football after high school does exist if you work hard enough at it.   We feel

the full contact experience that CEFB Camp provides puts us a couple weeks

ahead of our opponents who do not attend a camp of this nature.  We will

continue to participate as it is also a great team building activity for our kids.

 

John Betschart       Head Coach     Golden Valley High School

From myself and the Sweetwater coaching staff and players, I want to thank
for your hard work and passion in putting on this camp.  The hardwork and
attentive care of your staff, trainers, and the host (CSUMB) was of the
highest care. I don't think our kids have had 3 squares in their lifetime,
the camp certainly put some pound in all of us...the meals were great. As
coaches we are always looking for ways to get our kids to realize what it
takes to win championships...we all play to win and as Paul Bear Bryan
said, "We never lose, we just run out of time." But never in my wildest
dreams did I think a camp would provide instant results that would lead us
and start us in the right direction. The drills sessions, the individual
team walk through time, and the 7 vs 7 and 11 on 11 competitions were
excellent in their intent to get the most out our kids, and allow us to
watch how they would compete. As evaluative session, each certainly served
its purpose. In the history of Sweetwater High School, this had never been
done before (attending a full contact camp), and not soon after we got
home (9 hour drive), we saw the differ in our kids team unity. And as soon
as school started (we are year-round and we started that Monday after the
camp) our workouts (weights and field) have been more intense and
heartfelt. I can truly say that this camp fullfilled our desires and more.
We would certainly return if you would have us.  It took a little bit of
hardwork to get their, but it was well worth it. Again, thank you for all
you do.

My only regret in attending the Competitive Edge Football Camp is that I
didn't do it sooner.  This was the first camp that the Palma High School
football team has ever attended.  It was a tremendous experience.  Coach
Carrozzo and his staff run a disciplined, organized and fun camp.  The King
of the Field Competition was memorable and the players continued to talk
about the camp all through summer workouts.  We are a better football
team because we attended the Competititive Edge Football Camp.

Jeff Carnazzo       Head Coach     Palma High School

 _________________________________________________________

Thank you for a well organized camp! 

We accomplished everything I had hoped for and more.  Our program has a
large number of juniors that will be in their 1st year of varsity football.  Camp
gave them an opportunity to test their skills and strength against other varsity
players and teams.  At the same time our coaching staff was able to evaluate
our players and draw valuable conclusions about player strengths,
weaknesses, and position evaluation. 

The technique time and drills were well organized and each coach was
prepared to make the best use of valuable time.  Camp coaches were
attentive, demanding, and encouraging.  We were pleased with the position
tech periods.

The line and skill player competition was great.  It provided a change of pace
and some exciting competition for each team. 

The "camp stud" awards are well worth while.  The award is a good lift for
players and has had a carry over effect during summer work outs.

Overall camp competition was very good.  Each scrimmage created
challenges and opportunities.   

 Mark Barcelon     Head Coach   Berean Christian High School

"Competitive Edge Football Camp in San Jose was a great experience for us
at Serra High School. When selecting a camp to send our program to I
had to ask a few questions;

(1) Will this camp make us a better team?
(2) Will our kids have fun at the camp?
(3) Is the camp organized and run efficiently?
(4) Do the coaches who work at the camp work hard to make us better?
(5)Will our kids be safe at the camp?

After going through one of Coach Carrozzo's camps I can say with 100%
honesty that Competitive Edge Football Camps exceeded all of our
expectations to the questions listed above. From the Serra High School
Football Program and Staff, we would like to thank the Competitive Edge
Football Camp for assisting us in becoming a better football program."

Patrick Walsh       Head Coach      Serra High School
(from 3-7 in 2005 to 9-3 and CCS Open Division semi-finals in 2006)

This is a great camp.  Not only the coaches that are involved but the amount
of communication with the camp director and the other coaching participants
is outstanding.  We switched from another camp to be involved in the CEFB
camp and have not been sorry we did so.  Times and locations are convenient
for everybody with a variety of different options.  We are glad we made the
switch.
Jeff Mueller   Head Football Coach   Monta Vista High School

"Thanks for having us attend your camp at CSU Monterey Bay.  Our players
and coaches got a lot out of the three days that we spent with Coach
Carrozzo and his staff.  We all learned a great deal from the coaches about
football and about ourselves.  Going to an overnight camp was a great
bonding experience for us."
Ray Wright    Head Coach    Lynbrook High School

____________________________________________________________________

"Thank you so much for bringing a full contact camp to the Monterey Bay
Area. I thought you provided an excellent balance between drill time and live
work. The competitions on the third day helped alleviate the monotony that
can cast a shadow on that third day. We still have so far to go as a team,
but the camp gave a great chance to begin bonding together and teach the
young kids what varsity effort feels like.

The scrimmage time was limited and controlled, which helped us stay healthy.
 Check in was unbelievably smooth. The King of the Field competition was a
nice touch at the end. All in all, great job, keep up the good work.
Buck Roggeman   Head Coach    Pacific Grove High School

"I just wanted to take the time to say thank you for having me at your camp
this year. The opportunity to work at your camps this summer have allowed
me to continue to improve my trade, network with other coaches in the area,
and view the best players the Bay Area has to offer. Having coached at the
High School level not too  long ago, I have to say your camps are by far the
best offered in California."

Coach Bryan McGinnis    San Jose State University

"We really appreciated this years camp. It gave our Lowell players a gauge
of where they are and where they need to be. It gave our players the
confidence to last through anything.

We've been to your camp every year since 2003;
2003 Championship game
2004 City Champion
2005 Co-League Champions
2006 ????

I believe our success is due to attending your camp."
Danny Chan     Head Coach    Lowell High School

"Great camp! I really like the format and design of the camp. I thought all
the drills you had the kids do and the coaches that were coaching them were
great. I am sooo glad we went. What makes this camp awesome is the
passion. Keep up the great work. You sold me on the idea of going to camp
and I was a tough sell. This is year 13 as a Head Coach for me and it was my
first camp ever!"
Ron Capurso     Head Coach    San Jose Academy High School
_________________________________________________________

"The camp made me and my staff believers. We will be back next year. It is
like getting a cell phone for the first time, you wonder how you ever did
without it. I would like to thank you and your staff for your professionalism
and expertise for the three days. You made it fun while you taught. I know
what it takes to be a successful coach at any level, and that is passion for
what you do and you and your staff demonstrate that every second your
out there."
Ken Wittmer     Head Coach    Washington High School (Fremont)

__________________________________________________________

I have a kid paying at least half his fee in change and one kid who decided to
go to camp instead of his Junior Prom. Your camp is becoming a great
tradition for our guys."
Andy Walczak     Head Coach    Fremont High School (Sunnyvale)

"I just wanted to thank you and all of the coaches that helped with the
camp. We enjoyed our time at the camp. The camp was well run and very
educational. Please keep us in mind for next year."
Don Norton     Head Coach    AA Stagg High School

"The general structure was great. We enjoyed the progression and the
energy. I thought the energy was real powerful. The coaching was
sensational. We became a better team because of the experience. It has
been common to see all of our boys wearing their Competitive Edge Camp T
Shirts around with pride"
Greg Patner   Head Coach   Menlo-Atherton High School

"The Competitive Edge camp has set our program on the right track. We
could not have done as well as we had last year if we did not attend your
camp"
Desmond Gumbs   Head Coach  Wilson Prep High School

_________________________________________________________

"The design and flow of the camp was the most effective method I have
ever seen at a team camp. Your coaches were well prepared, intelligent, and
FIRED UP!! The players gained some valuable lessons through the individual
periods. And as coaches, we were able to pick up some new drills too."

"The team scrimmage period was run smooth and efficient. The coaches
involved were quick to praise and constructive yet caring in their criticisms. I
appreciate how the camp was carefully planned to the minute, and how you
compelled us to stick to schedule."

"My team took home many valuable lessons from your camp. We learned
how to; overcome adverse situations, deal with hot weather, bond as a team,
learned how to play with one another, encourage and support effort, and
become better football players."

"I hope to see every team at that camp have a successful  football season. I
will be reading the papers intently in hopes to see all teams at the top of the
standings. And I hope that Lowell Football will do your camp proud and show
that this summer we got, THE COMPETITIVE EDGE!!"

Jason Krolikowski   Head Coach  Lowell High School

D1 colleges, D2 and D3 as well.They know their stuff when they are working

"We always get some pleasant surprises at this camp. Its a lot of fun. The
camp coaches doa terrific job. Our position coaches go out and see what the
camp coaches do that we haven't done before. I'm a big fan of this camp.
We were at the very first camp and it was 4 teams. Its awesome. We'll try
to come back every year."

Matt Keisle   Head Coach    Piedmont Hills High School

"The camp is run perfectly. There is nothing we would change. You get
individual time, team time, scrimmage time, competitions like the Skills Relay
and Tug 'O' War. Our kids have gotten so much out of it.  These D1,2,3 and
JC coaches give up their time and expertise on not only us, but on the kids as
well during individual time. The camp coaches are awesome, absolutely
phenominal."

"In my 15 years of coaching high school football and the 5 different football camps I
have attended, the Competitive Edge Football Camps are the best by far. I would like
to take the time to commend all who participated in the camp. I would also like to
extend my kudos to all of the coaches who helped make our team better in every way.
Your coaches give instruction, encouragement and motivation. If you like fast paced,
quality coaching and excellent competition, then this is the place for your team.
Competitive Edge's mission statement is to improve your team. To improve your team
through numerous aspects like mental conditioning, coachability, hustle and various
other intangibles that you cannot be measured statistically, but can be measured in the
win and loss column. If you are new to this site and are considering bringing your team
to the next summers camps then I advise you to sign up early. Every coach I talked to
is bringing his team back next year."

 Arthur Testani   Defensive Coordinator   Prospect High School
