Beyond it’s cutting edge field and classroom curriculum, the retreat offers players an in-depth look at what it takes to lead at the college and high school levels. The event impresses upon it’s attendees the key role quarterbacks play in creating cultures inside football programs and features current and former collegiate and pro quarterbacks as speakers and counselors.

Testimonials
Joshua Espinosa - 2024
QBU was a fantastic learning experience for me. I not only learned what it took physically to be a QB, but most importantly what it took mentally to be a QB. I met many friends in my 2 years at QBU, of which I still talk to this day. I learned various techniques such as pocket movement, learning specific tendencies that give away defenses, and what routes and combinations beat certain defenses. Overall a great learning experience and competition against peers!
Nick Poh - 2024
He loved it (The Leadership Retreat) It was a great experience. We didn't want to leave. That event was one of the most well run and organized things I've ever been a part of. You guys did an amazing job.
Rashidi (Rock) Jones - 2024
I’m a big believer that IMPROVEMENT is the biggest room in life. My son has been challenged, pushed, through the on-field training from six to seven separate QB trainers showing huge improvements. The mindset of my son and his IQ have been enhanced through the learning sessions, which are teaching him how to successfully execute pass plays and be a field general. A recruiting seminar is also a benefit that the QBs and their parents and parents are exposed to. My QB has truly benefited from attending these camps over the last two years and we will be back for a third! QBs attending QB Universe will undoubtedly show improvement.
Gino DiBene - 2024
The QBU leadership retreat was hands down the best quarterback experience I’ve ever had. Leadership on the field and in the huddle are just as important as the real life drills they teach us on the beach. Thank you to all the coach’s at QBU that made this experience a reality.
Adam Yekin - 2024
Best camp I’ve been too. We will see y’all next year for sure!
Ask Hixson - 2024
Thank you for everything you do for QBU and especially for this weekend. I can’t imagine the sacrifice, time, and preparation it takes to run a camp like this. The culture you’ve built—with your passion, love for the kids and the game, and high standards—is truly incredible. As a father, I’m extremely grateful. We chose QBU again this year because of the amazing ROI we saw in St. Louis, and Florida was just as impactful—if not more.

Huge thanks to each of you for the work you do, the level you do it at, and the impact you have on families across the country. You’re outstanding people and coaches. Keep it up!
David Prock, Lukas Prock's Dad - 2024
First I want to say what a great experience we had in DC.  Seriously it was FANTASTIC!  We have been to a number of camps so far this season and while there have been some good ones, your coaching really stood out.  We currently work with Mike McCarthy of M2 QB academy in the Boston area and Luke said it was like three days of intense M2 -That is a high complement!!  I think you guys all take this very seriously, I think you genuinely care about these kids and you are really well organized.  I honestly can't wait to be exposed to QB Universe again.
John Sullivan - 2023
I really can’t tell you how grateful I am for the QB Universe/QBIQ programs. The confidence and knowledge (my son) gained has taken him to next level this year. He’s a 7th grader starting with 8th graders this year and has led the team to 3-0 record so far. He’s by no means a star but without QBU/QBIQ he wouldn’t be where he is today. Thank you for all that you guys do.

Ray Gurley Jr. - 2024
I was really impressed with the QB Universe camp this past weekend. It’s one of the best camps out there for quarterbacks—maybe the best. It’s invite-only, and once you're there, you understand why. The talent level is high at every grade.The coaches, players, and facilities are all top-tier. It feels like a college-level camp. Coaches bring great experience, stories, and lessons. QBs work on drills, technique, film study, coverages, routes, and even homework.Players are grouped mostly by graduation year, but some are moved based on skill or numbers. Older groups do faster, more advanced drills.The camp is all about competition, learning, and coaching the small details that really matter in a QB’s development.
Kelan Cornell - 2024
QB Universe is more than a quarterback camp. I learned the importance of leadership and gained the ability to read defenses. The best part about it is the connections you make with elite high level quarterback coaches from around the country.
Easton Allen - 2024
Blessed and Excited for another AWESOME camp competition @ quarterback universe. If you haven't been ... you're making the wrong play Call!
