Here is Why

01

The Room Changes You

There are coaches who attend clinics and coaches who attend this. The difference is the people in the room. NFL coaches. D1 coordinators. Service academy staff. High school coaches who are quietly building dynasties. One conversation in that weight room can change the trajectory of your program. You cannot manufacture that online.

02

Right Before the Season. On Purpose.

July is not an accident. This is the last moment before fall camp to install something new, fix something broken, and show up to August with a sharper plan than everyone you compete against. The coaches who win in November and December make decisions in July. This is one of them.

03

No Powerpoints. No Theory. All Coaching.

Every session in this building is hands-on. These coaches are not lecturing from slides. They are on the turf and in the weight room showing you exactly what they do with their own athletes. You are not watching a presentation. You are getting coached by some of the best in the country.

04

Dante Scarnecchia is in This Room.

Six Super Bowl rings. Thirty-six years coaching in the NFL. The man who built the standard for offensive line play in the modern era. He is not on a screen. He is not on a podcast. He is standing in front of you at URI on July 18. That does not happen twice.

Meet the Speakers

Scott Leech
Host • URI
Scott Leech
University of Rhode Island • D1 S&C Coach

The architect of the Gridiron Warrior system. Active D1 S&C Coach at URI. Leech has spent the last decade turning high school and college programs into physical, dominant football teams. This is his house.

Andy Ryland
Tackling Specialist
Andy Ryland
Skills Coach & Tackling Specialist

Ryland is one of the most sought-after tackling specialists in the country. His work on contact mechanics, safe play, and in-season progression development has influenced programs at every level of the game. What he brings to URI on July 18 is not theory. It is the most practical session on physical football you will find anywhere this summer.

Jim Kiritsy
Navy
Jim Kiritsy
United States Naval Academy • S&C

Kiritsy develops athletes who play under one standard: excellence under pressure. Training at the Naval Academy is not optional and it is not soft. He brings that mentality to Kingston on July 18.

Jack Dustin
Endicott College
Jack Dustin
Endicott College • Football

Dustin opens the day on the turf. His session covers team warmups and movement prep — the engine start that sets the tone for every practice. You leave with a better plan to get your team ready for battle.

Nik Kessel
UConn Football
Nik Kessel
University of Connecticut • Football

Kessel covers the hidden third of your game: punt block circuits and special teams speed. The plays most programs ignore. High-tempo, drill-based session that makes your special teams a weapon instead of a liability.
