Not go to camp? It's the opposite here, the old guys look down on folks who don't go! In fact, if you never go to camp here, you'll never do a varsity game. Well, almost.
Camps are definitely worth the time and money. Find one that's aimed at teaching, that's local, that has clinicians and evaluators that you'll also run into during the season. Get tapes!! Tapes are the best learning tool there is, and tapes from camps are mega-learning in a box. And don't argue. Even if the eval is dead wrong, just nod and say mm-hm. Then remember to double check the rule book when you get back to your bag. Keep asking questions, watch others' games, and then ask some more questions.
Camp, camp, camp!!
