Hampshire Jr Whip-Purs Football & Cheer

Just because the season is over, it's no excuse to sit around on the couch.  The off-season presents a golden opportunity for athletes to refine their skills, engage in strength training, boost speed and agility, or explore a different sport or position. Encourage your young athletes to maintain their activity levels! Whether or not they're enrolled in camps or participating in football during the off-season, don't underestimate the benefits of involvement in other sports. Almost every sport offers a chance to acquire or enhance crucial football and cheerleading skills. Inspire your kids to embrace new experiences and stay active!


The Jr Whip-Purs are not affiliated with any of these camps.  They are independent for-profit ventures that allow kids a chance to learn and play with their favorite football stars.
