BALTIMORE — University of Maryland wide receiver Tyrese Chambers hosted a free football camp for local kids.

A Poly graduate, Chambers hosted the complimentary camp for players in fourth grade through eighth grade at Garrison Middle School Sunday afternoon.

Not only did attendees get to sharpen their football skills, but Chambers used this opportunity to advocate the importance of staying in school, gun violence education, and mental health awareness.

The Best Is Ahead Foundation (TBIAF) at the University of Maryland partnered with the Northwest Rec League and Grind Hard Enrichment Program (GHEP) to put on the event.

Chambers is a graduate student and received a marketing degree from the university last May.
