Golden Bears Football Camps & Clinics

REGISTRATION OPEN FOR SELECTS TEAM TRYOUTS:
The Golden Bears Selects program has been created to help in the development of elite football talent in our province. Players selected to participate in this program will train with the Golden Bears Football staff, CFL players and student athletes in our program. Participants involved will train, practice, watch film and work through the implementation of offensive and defensive systems in a team setting. This team will train, study and practice together for several weekends over the winter months in preparation for several tournaments the teams will compete in. The team will travel to an American destination in late February or early March 2025 to compete in an international tournament. This experience will give the young men involved extended time working with a Usports staff, and also allow for them to interact with Usports student athletes who also serve as coaches and mentors for the program.
