Are one day satellite camps open to all high school players or by invitation? Age or grade limit?

Are they run by the team's position coaches and designed to allow coaches to evaluate their physical skills? Is there one on one competition ? Seven on seven?

Please describe a typical camp

If you are Louisville, I think it starts with hookers and blow. But maybe that's just for the coaches.

Typically, First sign in and get shirt. Call everyone up and the Biggest Name Coach talk to all campers/thank them for coming/go over goals for the day. Rotation of measuring the kids, running events, vert, etc. Then positional drills with coaches. Then one on ones. Call everyone up and talk about blah blah blah. End.

Sounds like a good description of the football program at Tulane.

They cost money (anywhere from $30 for smaller schools to $100) and are open to any high school athlete, but they do invite prospects also.

New rules state that high school coaches can't volunteer at these camps anymore, so the other college coaches who are in attendance will likely be involved in coaching position drills, timing 40s, setting up 1on1s, etc.

Curious, what is the rationale for this?

I'm pretty sure it has something to do with bigger schools hiring HS coaches to support staff in order to land a top recruit. The new NCAA legislation that recently came out prohibits hiring a HS coach and signing a kid from that same HS within a two year span (or something like that).

Thanks for the info. It sounds similar to NFL pro days.
