to Host FREE Youth Football Camp
Hayti, MO and New Madrid, MO Natives
This FREE camp will be held Saturday, July 11 from 9 a.m.-6 p.m. on the football field at Moore’s alma mater, Hayti High School. The camp provides youth aged six-18 with the chance to improve their football skills, sportsmanship, and teamwork, while building self-esteem both on-and-off the field. Ages six-12 will have a morning session (9 a.m.-1 p.m.) and ages 13-18 will have an afternoon session (2 p.m.-6 p.m.).
“I can’t wait to get out on the football field with Kony Ealy and these kids in my hometown,” said Moore, who is hosting the camp for the second-straight year. “This community has supported my so much over the years; it’s always nice to be able to give something back.”
Each participant will receive a t-shirt, lunch/dinner, and refreshments. They will also have the opportunity to meet Moore, Ealy, and other NFL players onsite. “I’m really looking forward to spending the day with William Moore and the next generation of kids in southeastern Missouri,” added Ealy. “I hope that they are as excited as I am!”
