Colleges coaches from the inter-mountain west will descend upon Gooding High School for a one-day event showcasing athletes from across the Treasure Valley. 

The fourth annual Southern Idaho Showcase Camp kicks off July 27, with added changes to ensure the health and safety of all who attend.

Gooding Head Football Coach Cameron Anderson, who leads this year's program, said Monday's camp could be the only opportunity some athletes have to showcase their talents to college recruiters.

"I feel that we as head coaches have a responsibility to prove to everyone that we have the ability to safely create opportunities for kids, even in times of fear and uncertainty," Anderson said.

Masks will be encouraged for communication between players and coaches and athletes are required to bring plenty of water to the event. Any participant who feels sick is strongly encouraged to remain home. 

For coaches whose programs will not allow them to attend, Anderson said every drill and station will be recorded and sent to coaching staffs. 

"They have assured me that although they would rather be there in person, this is an excellent compromise that will still allow them to see talent and make connections," Anderson said.

Past colleges that have attended the Southern Idaho Showcase Camp include the College of Idaho, Eastern Oregon, Montana Western, Montana Northern, Carroll College, Montana Tech, Rocky Mountain College, Willamette University, Pacific Lutheran, Dordt College and Minot State. According to Anderson, the first three years of the even garnered more than 120 participants who signed letters of intent to play football at the collegiate level.
