DASH Sports Flag Football camps provide players with a well-rounded football experience in a little to no contact safe environment. Key elements of passing, catching, rushing, and defense will be taught and practiced daily. Players will be grouped and challenged at an appropriate level in a fun, positive environment while learning the values of 'Respect, Hustle, and Pride.' Camp ends with scrimmages/games the final day where players can showcase their skills. Athletes should wear sunscreen, bring a water bottle and wear athletic clothing & shoes (spikes/cleats are optional). Footballs and flag belts are provided.

This camp is designed for youth entering 7th, 8th and 9th grade in the Fall of 2026. The camp will focus on individual position technique and terminology used by the Trojan Football Program. Campers will also be installing offensive and defensive schemes which will be used to prepare them for Middle School Football and the 9th grade football in the fall.

Youth Entering Grades 5th-8th in Fall of 2026 Registration ends on July 27th Welcome to the New Prague Youth Football program! With direct oversight from our NPHS coaching staff, our program is dedicated to providing 5th through 8th grade students in the New Prague Area Schools with an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of football while fostering teamwork, sportsmanship, and personal growth. As part of the New Prague Community Education program, we compete in the Southwest Metro Football League (SWML) against evenly matched teams from neighboring communities such as Chaska, Chanhassen, Eden Prairie, Orono, and Waconia. Through structured practices, competitive games, and the guidance of coaches, we aim to prepare our players for success on and off the field, building skills and values that will benefit them in all aspects of life. Participation in the New Prague Youth Football program is about more than winning or losing games. Our goal is to win every game; however, our purpose is to emphasize effort, resilience, and commitment, teaching players that with hard work and determination, they can overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Our coaches are dedicated to designing effective practice plans and fostering a supportive environment where each player can grow, regardless of their physical abilities. We are grateful for the trust that parents place in us and recognize the responsibility we have in shaping not only football players but also responsible young individuals.
