Former Winnipeg Blue Bomber Doug Brown and KidSport Winnipeg have teamed up again to put on the fourth annual KidSport football camp.
Taking place on Saturday, April 20, the camp will be for any athlete who received funding from KidSport in order to play football in 2012. Brown, along with current and former Winnipeg Blue Bomber players, will teach kids the technical aspects involved in football while also providing examples of other important skills such as leadership, practice, hard work, dedication and self-confidence.
“This is a great opportunity to continue to engage with the community and serve as a role model to Winnipeg’s aspiring young athletes,” Brown said. “It also gives these kids the chance to learn some of the finer points of football from professional athletes, which is something that not many ever get the opportunity to do.”
