Quarterbacks

Quarterback Academy

For athletes who are serious about the quarterback position. Led by professional quarterback Dalton Cole, this camp covers the technical, mental, and leadership aspects required to succeed on the field.

Athletes will receive hands-on instruction covering footwork, throwing mechanics, pocket movement, decision-making, field vision, and game management. Beyond physical development, participants will learn how to lead teammates, communicate effectively, and approach the game with confidence and discipline.

Whether you're preparing for the upcoming season or looking to take your game to the next level, this camp provides a competitive environment focused on growth, development, and measurable improvement.

Speed & agility

Speed & Playmaker Academy

For football athletes who want to become faster, more explosive, and more impactful on game day — training the skills that create game-changing players and applying them in real competitive situations.

Athletes will train speed, acceleration, change of direction, reaction time, and football-specific movement. Unlike traditional speed camps, our focus extends beyond running fast: players develop the tools needed to make plays when the ball is in the air, create separation as a receiver, close space as a defensive back, and compete with confidence in game-like environments.

Training includes position-specific drills, route running instruction, defensive back techniques, ball-tracking exercises, competitive one-on-one sessions, and performance-based work designed to translate directly to Friday night lights. Whether you're a quarterback, receiver, defensive back, running back, or multi-position athlete, this camp is built to help you move faster, compete harder, and become the player who changes the outcome of the game.

Our mission is simple: develop explosive athletes, confident competitors, and playmakers who stand out when the game matters most.

One-on-one training

Elite Football Skills Academy

Private one-on-one training with our coaches — a full hour of individualized instruction built entirely around your athlete's position, goals, and game.

Every session is customized. Quarterbacks work throwing mechanics, footwork, and progressions; receivers work releases, route detail, and ball skills; defensive backs work technique, transitions, and coverage — whatever your athlete needs most, with a coach's full attention on every single rep.

One-on-one hours run on weekends in one-hour blocks from 12:00 to 3:00 PM, right after the morning academies. Book a single hour for focused work, or stack blocks for a deeper session. If you want the fastest path to visible improvement, this is it.

Leadership

Professional leadership, from day one

Bend FC Flag Football is led by a full-time Director of Coaching who brings college and professional football experience to Central Oregon youth sports — and who is on the field coaching, not just behind a desk.

Dalton Cole, Director of Coaching

Dalton Cole

Director of Coaching · Professional Quarterback

A professional quarterback, business leader, and entrepreneur, Dalton leads every coaching program in the club — the Elite 7v7 teams, the recreational league staff, and the year-round camps. His career has been defined by leadership, resilience, and a relentless commitment to growth.

  • Years of high-level competition at quarterback — strategic thinking, composure under pressure, and leading in critical moments
  • A proven record of developing teams and building cultures centered on accountability, performance, and continuous improvement
  • Personally coaches every level of the club, from a player's first practice to Elite tournament competition

Leadership forged on the field

Dalton has spent years competing at a high level as a quarterback — a position that demands strategic thinking, composure under pressure, and the ability to inspire and lead others in critical moments. The lessons learned on the field have become the foundation of his approach to business, leadership, and organizational development.

Beyond football

Dalton has built a reputation for developing teams, improving operations, and helping organizations create cultures centered on accountability, performance, and continuous improvement. What separates him is his belief that leadership is earned through action: whether in the locker room, the boardroom, or the community, he approaches every opportunity with a competitive mindset, a servant-leader mentality, and a commitment to helping others reach their potential.

The mission

While actively advancing his professional football career, Dalton pursues ventures that bridge the worlds of business and sports. His mission is simple: build winning cultures, develop exceptional people, and leave every organization stronger than he found it.

Why it matters

Most youth programs run on volunteers alone. At Bend FC, the director who designs the program is the same person coaching your player on Wednesday afternoon — every recreational team, every Elite practice, every camp. That means professional instruction, consistent standards, and a genuine development path from a player's first flag pull to elite tournament competition.

The Club

Why families choose Bend FC

Trusted since 1994

Bend FC has served Central Oregon families for three decades. Flag football extends that same club — same fields, same registration, same community.

A safer game

Flag football delivers the speed and strategy of the game without the contact — the reason it's the fastest-growing youth sport in America.

Built for families

Affordable pricing, consistent scheduling, and professional communication. We build the calendar around busy families, not against them.

Questions

Frequently asked

Flag football is the non-contact version of the game: instead of tackling, defenders pull a flag from the ball-carrier's belt. Players get all the speed, strategy, and fun of football with far less contact — it's the fastest-growing youth team sport in the U.S. and makes its Olympic debut at the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

Youth divisions cover 5th grade & under and 6th grade through high school, in both the recreational league and camps. The Elite 7v7 travel program is for competitive youth players, and the Adult 7v7 League is open to everyone 16 and up.

We're finalizing the updated practice schedule now — days, times, and locations for every program will be posted here soon. Pre-register or join the interest list and we'll email you the schedule the moment it's set.

Have a specific conflict? Reach out — we'll do our best to make both work.
