Frosh Football: 2021 Info!

Hello Future Hillmen Football Parents and Players,

I hope everyone is staying healthy and safe during these challenging times. Despite there being a lot of questions about this up and coming season, we want to let you know we are confident that we will get a “normal” season in the fall. First, let me say that your child’s health and safety is our number one concern and we will be vigilant as always to accomplish this. 

Traditionally we would meet with your child during the spring at their school to get out the information about the summer schedule and then would start practice the week after they get out of school on June 7th. During the summer practice the frosh staff implements the base offense and defense, the basic fundamentals and our conditioning program . While we cannot get out to each of our feeder schools to promote this, we still WILL START June 7th for Summer Camp. 

We are so excited to work with your son/daughter at Placer and their time here will be a life changing experience. If your child is interested in playing football this fall please email our Frosh Head Coach Jim Packheiser at jimpackheiser@yahoo.com 

Thank you and Go Hillmen!!
