Learning the ropes of football at DHS youth football camp

The Demopolis High School football coaching staff held a youth football camp for local kids on Monday and Tuesday at the Demopolis Middle School football field.

The camp, which was led by head football coach Lance Tucker, taught students several drills to help them hone their football skills. This included several conditioning drills along with teaching passing, catching and tackling drills.

On the first day of camp Monday, there were more than 60 students who attended the camp with more students likely to participate on Tuesday.
