Central PA Football Academy

It’s not a secret that Central Pennsylvania is known for producing some of the most outstanding athletes in the country. Hence, Rick Marsilio has created the Central PA Football Academy. It was with one thing in mind, to develop a top-notch football Clinic that will enhance each and every participant. Come and experience a Football Clinic like no other. CPFA is led by some of the best Professional, College, and High School Coaches and Players from around the country. Our program will develop the skills needed to improve your overall game.

The CPFA Football Clinic is designed to provide the best coaching and training for the development of sound and basic football fundamentals. The Clinic’s strength lies in the quality of the coaching staff assembled, led by Harrisburg Stampede's QB & Receivers Coach Rick Marsilio. The emphasis is on teaching, and the majority of each hour is spent learning the same drills and techniques taught to professionals. Participants will also learn about the importance of attitude, discipline, hard work, pride and teamwork - all qualities that are part of CPFA experience!
CPFA ‘s objective is to provide an elite staff of coaches and players that have both experience and education in professional athletics. Our role will be to lead and teach necessary skills regarding character, sportsmanship, academics, and commitment.

Our “CORE” curriculum will consist of a motivational foundation that will include many different aspects of life concerning young adults in Central PA today. Our overall goal will be to encourage academic and athletic excellence.

What Makes CPFA Different?

WE ARE NOT A CAMP, WE ARE A CLINIC!
CPFA is an extensive training program designed to educate each student athlete in their specific position.
Each student will be given the opportunity to be instructed by a current or former professional player or Coach. Example: A student athlete who wishes to play Quarterback will only be coached a professional player or Coach who has a minimum 3 years of experience in that specific position.
The Academy is semi-private with sessions at a 5:1 ratio of student athletes to instructor.
Student Athletes will NEVER train with an instructor who has not played your desired position.
CPFA utilizes specific training techniques and skills needed to advance the student to the highest level of competition in the game.
Each student athlete will have their individualized workout and weight program assessed.
An experienced sports strength and agility Coach will educate the student athlete on the importance of maintaining a healthy diet and provide guidance on workouts.
CPFA has created a mentoring program using the most qualified individuals, players, and coaches. Our main goal is to build sportsmanship along with character on and off the field.
CPFA will partner with local National College Scouting professionals to assist students in obtaining scholarship opportunities.
