Registration is now open for the fourth annual Edgerrin James Speed and Agility Youth Football Camp on Monday, July 23 at the Immokalee Sports Complex.

The free camp is in conjunction with Collier County Parks and Recreation, as well as the Edgerrin James Foundation. Registration is from 8 to 9:30 a.m. The camp is from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and for ages 6-18. Instructors include some of the best players from college and the NFL, as well as members of NFL coaching staffs.

James' cousin Javarris has been at the camp, but may have to miss it this year after signing as a free agent with the Arizona Cardinals earlier this week. The younger James, also a running back, played at Immokalee, the University of Miami, and then with the Indianapolis Colts in 2010 before being released prior to last season.

Among those who have helped out over the past three years are sports agent Drew Rosenhaus, and former NFL players Robert Bailey, Jammi German and Clinton Portis.

The camp's structure is designed to actively engage every participant. Each camper will be placed in groups based on similar age, size, and/or experience level. The camp emphasizes the basic fundamentals and skill development essential to improving football performance. Campers will receive instruction on technique enhancements, teamwork, sportsmanship, and educational life skills.
