Jeff Trickey quarterback camp returning to Jamestown for seventh year

Jeff Trickey QB Camps will return to University of Jamestown’s Gordon Stadium June 8-9, bringing a seventh year of quarterback instruction to Jamestown and giving Stutsman County players another local option for summer development. The Jamestown stop is part of a broader Midwest camp circuit, but the two-day session is set to keep one of the program’s regular summer stops in town.

The camp program, which has operated since 1989, centers on quarterback mechanics, decision-making, leadership, confidence and individual attention. Its Jamestown schedule lists a two-day quarterback camp for grades 7-12, a three-day advanced quarterback-and-receiver camp for grades 9-12, and a one-day youth camp for grades 4-6, making the program available to athletes at several stages of development.

That mix is what has helped keep the camp on the calendar for so long. A Wisconsin Football Coaches Association post described the camp as built to provide intense quarterback instruction, leadership skills and character development through sports, while a recent camp writeup said Trickey camps have attracted thousands of football players since 1989. A 2024 TV feature quoted Trickey saying the camps bring in young men from many different states, underscoring that the Jamestown stop is part of a regional draw rather than a one-off clinic.

For local families, the return of the camp adds another football-focused week to the summer schedule without requiring a long trip out of town. For players, the appeal goes beyond throwing drills. The program’s emphasis on leadership and confidence gives quarterbacks, and receivers in the advanced session, a chance to work on the kind of habits that carry into fall practices, huddle command and team chemistry.

Jamestown’s continued place on the camp schedule also says something about the city’s role in the regional football calendar. With multiple Midwest locations listed each year, Jeff Trickey QB Camps keeps coming back to Jamestown because the stop has stayed relevant for players who want detailed instruction close to home. For the athletes who show up at Gordon Stadium, the benefit is simple: a few days of focused work that can shape how they lead when the season starts.
