Glendale Academy Diary:

This has been a great experience here at Steve Clarkson’s Quarterback Academy. I’ve learned so much from the coaching staff. All of them are so easy to get along with and very knowledgeable when it comes to teaching the quarterback position. The big highlight for me was working with Coach Clarkson. He helped me improve my release on the ball, along with my hand positioning, and throwing power. Overall I thought I had a good day, but I could’ve done a lot better. I felt just a bit rusty at certain times throughout the workout. Day #2 should be fun as we do some new drills and learn more about the game of football in general. I would recommend this program to other quarterbacks because the instructors give you so many good coaching tips, the drills are very unique, and you will just learn so much.
