Vacation Planning 2022 Season

Parents - I realize we didn't go through a normal 6th grade season and some of you didn't know when football typically begins.  Also, many families may plan vacation a year in advance.  

That being said, if your player wants to play the 8th grade season (2022), I suggest you return from all vacations before 7/25/22.  Football typically begins the last Monday in July each year.  I hope this helps with planning.

Off Season Workouts

Structured off season workouts are set up at C2X Academy located at 9364 Old Bailes Rd, Fort Mill, SC.  Workouts are run by Tom Tanis and he will focus on strength, speed, agility & endurance.  For those interested there are two options:

  • Monday, Tuesday & Thursday from 12:00pm - 1:15pm beginning on 6/14 and ending on 7/22.  The cost is $140 for the entire program or a drop in rate of $10 per session.  8th grade is working out at this time and there are 13 spots left.
  • Tuesday & Thursday from 3:45pm - 5:00pm beginning on 6/14 and ending on 7/22.  The cost is $110 for the entire program or a drop in rate of $10 per class.  I'll open this up to 6th grade once I know how many 7th graders are interested.

For those not familiar with C2X Academy, I've included their link below.  Please message me ASAP if interested and each session is limited to 40 players.  I'll forward the players' names and how you wish to pay to C2X.  If there questions, please or or message me.
