1) Become a better HS Official..Not in my goals to go behind an Elite HS official

Roger Ayers and Mike Eades run a camp in the Lynchburg, VA area with the main goal being instruction.

Greg Bennett (ODAC) and Dennis Ashcraft (USA South) run the so-called "DIII Supercamp" at U. of Richmond in late June. A little expensive ($375) but worth it in my opinion because you get three full days of games, a nice A/C room to rest in and do video review, a dorm room, and all the food you can eat at the dining hall. Also, their 3-person philosophy is different but good; it will rub some old-timers the wrong way, but once you try it you'll find yourself seeing plays better than before.

Will they pick up a few guys each year? Sure. But it's primarily a teaching camp and it accomplishes this very, very well. I highly recommend it.

Only potential downside is that it's the same weekend as the VHSL teaching camp, so if you're VHSL and you have long-term HS playoff aspirations, this camp should probably be your priority.

Can you elaborate a bit on this?

I love Gregg's 3-person philosophies. I used to be against them, but the more I employ them, the better I see plays.

Also, I sent you a private message.

It's OK for you to share here. I'm always up for some learning.

I've attended both camps multiple times, and both are great camps. IMO, it depends on where you are on the learning cycle of the 3-person system. If you
are beginning the learning process, the VHSL camp is the one to choose. Later after gaining experience, the D3 camp would be my choice.
