Vikings Hold Youth Football Camp

The Avery Vikings football team, in conjunction with the county Parks and Recreation Department, hosted its annual youth football camp this week at Avery County High School.

Campers learned about a variety of drills, from learning to block and proper footwork, to jumping, balancing, running and catching skills. A number of current Vikings football players and members of the Avery coaching staff have donated their time to working with the campers ranging in age from youth league through middle school age.
