Texas Football offers two great summer camps for young athletes interested in building upon their football skills or simply improving their strength and conditoning.
First, there's the Mack Brown Longhorn Football Camp which is open to all young football players between grades four through 12. (High school graduates are not allowed.) Camp sessions are divided by age and ability. The camp is coached by The University of Texas coaching staff and assisted by some of the top high school and college coaches in the country. The staff provides 24-hour supervision for all campers. Parents are welcome at all practices.
The perfect compliment to the Mack Brown Longhorn Football Camp is the Mack Brown & Jeff Madden Speed and Explosive Power Camp. The Speed and Explosive Power Camp is open to all individuals between the ages of 12 and 18. Camp sessions are divided by age and ability and campers learn from the University of Texas strength and conditioning staff, with assistance from some of the top high school and college coaches in the country. The staff provides 24-hour supervision for all campers. Parents are welcome at all workouts.
Both camps utilize UT's many athletics facilities, all of which are considered among the best in the country.

Parking
•UT Parking and Transportation Services
The mission of our parking and transportation department is to be the national leader in creating the most efficient and respected campus-wide parking, transportation and services programs. As a result, parking is strictly enforced at all times, especially during summer camp. Following are some parking reminders regarding camp. Thanks in advance.
•Registration parking: Please park in Lot 70C, located south of the MAG parking garage at 2017 Robert Dedman Dr. Do not carry luggage with you to registration because you will have to make another trip to University Towers to check into the form. Registration parking -- and ONLY registration parking -- is complimentary in Lot 70C on your day of registration.
•University Towers parking: Be it registration or just visiting your camper, please park in the University Towers parking garage, which is located at the corner of W. 23rd St. and Pearl St. At no times should you park curbside on Pearl St.; you may be ticketed by the City of Austin. Parking in the University Towers parking garage is complimentary when visiting your camper at the dorm.
•Viewing camp practices: Please park in the MAG parking garage, located at 2017 Robert Dedman Dr., when visiting to view your camper at either the DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium or Frank Denius Fields. Manor Garage is a central pay garage. There are no cashiers located at the exits. Instead, two payment methods are used: (1) Central pay -- Park your vehicle and take your ticket with you. When you are ready to leave, go to the cashier's office before you go back to your vehicle; (2) During some general events on campus, the Manor Garage is a pre-pay garage -- you will pay at the entrance before you drive in to the garage.
Parking in surface lots on the University campus requires a valid University permit. Parking without the required permit or parking in the LBJ Library lot (Lot 38) or the TCC lot (Lot 40) will result in the issuance of a citation.
The phone number to the Manor Garage is (512) 232-1545.
