Through this long-standing collaboration, Nike Football Camps x Big Time Players have provided high-quality training environments for young athletes across Canada. Led by Coach Keon, a two-time Grey Cup Champion (2008 and 2014) with a ten-year playing career in the Canadian Football League (CFL), the camps deliver development experiences to help athletes improve their skills, compete and train at a high level.
The upcoming Nike Football Camp in Hamilton features special guest coach, Charleston Hughes — a Canadian Football League (CFL) Hall of Fame Inductee, two-time Grey Cup Champion (2008 and 2014) and four-time Most Outstanding Defensive Player. Charleston brings a championship mindset, professionalism, and a passion for mentoring young athletes. Campers won’t just learn football skills, they’ll hear firsthand what it takes to compete at the highest level and become leaders on and off the field.
"I want every camper to leave believing in themselves. Football teaches so much more than catching, throwing, and tackling. It teaches confidence, discipline, teamwork, and resilience. If every athlete leaves with a stronger work ethic and the belief that they can achieve more than they thought possible, then we’ve done our job," said Coach Keon.
Nike Football Camps are designed for athletes of all skill levels. Whether it’s a player’s first time on the field or they’re preparing for the next level, the goal is to create a positive, energetic, and challenging environment where every athlete can improve. Campers can expect elite coaching, unforgettable experiences, and role models like Charleston Hughes in Hamilton, and we can’t wait to see the next generation of football players take the field.
“Success isn’t about where you start—it’s about the work you’re willing to put in every single day. Be coachable, stay humble, and never let your effort be questioned.”
