Glendale Academy Diary:
I had a great time at Steve Clarkson’s Quarterback Academy. I loved the competition and all the instruction I received throughout my time here. The coaching staff is all very personable and knows what they’re talking about. One of the big things I learned about playing quarterback came from Steve Clarkson. He told me to make sure that I am balanced in my drop so that I can deliver the ball more accurately. Though the highlight had to be working with Coach Clarkson, I would say I especially liked the footwork drill. That station is where you have to work the hardest and really work up a sweat. Overall, I felt I performed very well, but you can always improve in everything you do. I flew down here form Washington because I want to keep getting better and better. This place offered me new tips and instruction that will take my game to new heights. I would recommend this academy because it is a place where quarterbacks can learn how to become better overall players.
