Archie Manning, Executive Director:
Leadership, dedication and commitment have enabled
Archie Manning to succeed both on and off the
football field. Archie oversees every aspect of the
Manning Passing Academy and makes all the audibles
when it comes to teaching and coaching. Manning’s
background is truly reflective of the ideals and
dedication necessary to compete on the football field.
At Ole Miss, where he is considered one of the
greatest players ever to wear a Rebel uniform, he was
the recipient of the Walter Camp Award and was selected to the All-American,
All-SEC and All-South teams. As a professional Manning was the 2nd player
selected in the 1971 NFL draft, he went on to a brilliant 14 year career that
included stints with the New Orleans Saints, Houston Oilers, and Minnesota
Vikings. As the New Orleans Saints field general, Archie was named league MVP
in `78 and was twice selected to the Pro Bowl.
As a community leader, he has supported numerous non-profits and charities
over the years in both Louisiana and Mississippi while continuing to assist those
who share his love for the game of football. In 2013 he became the eighth
recipient of the NFL’s prestigious “Pat Summerall Award” given to an individual
who has demonstrated through their career the character, integrity and
leadership both on and off the job.
Archie is Chairman of the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame
and a member of the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame and serves as an active
member of the Allstate Sugar Bowl championship committee.
The former All-American quarterback at Mississippi was named as the recipient
of the Davey O’Brien Legends Award which recognizes a QB who has made
significant contributions to football, distinguished himself as an extraordinary
leader and demonstrated exemplary conduct and reputation on and off the
field.
A portion of the Manning Passing Academy proceeds is donated to Special
Olympics Louisiana and the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Archie and Peyton
have written a book entitled “Manning: A Father, His Sons and A Football
Legacy” and also have a national quarterback award named after the family.
The Manning Award, hosted by the Sugar Bowl Committee, in honor of Archie,
Peyton and Eli is the only national quarterback award that considered the
candidates post-season play.
For almost four decades, the Manning family and the quarterback position
have been practically synonymous with one another. As such, their summer
vacations always revolve the annual Manning Passing Academy, a family-owned
and managed football camp that embraces the basic fundamentals of football
while catering to the offensive skill positions of RB, TE, WR…and of course QB.
Archie and his wife Olivia (a former Homecoming Queen at Ole Miss) reside
in New Orleans are the proud grandparents of six grandchildren by Cooper,
Peyton and Eli.

Cooper Manning, Senior Associate Director:
Cooper was a two-time All-State wide receiver at
Isidore Newman School in New Orleans and played in
the Louisiana High School All-Star Game as well as
participating on two state championship basketball
teams. He was heavily recruited by Division I schools
out of high school including Texas, Virginia, and Ole
Miss before deciding to attend his father’s alma mater
(Ole Miss) on a football scholarship. A career-ending
injury forced the Rebel wide receiver to the sidelines,
but his love for the game has never diminished.
Coop’s experience in high school, college, and professional sports has made
him a natural fit for the broadcast booth and he has hosted and or cohosted
numerous projects over the years, including both television and radio shows
during football season on WWL in New Orleans.
One of the most popular staff members among the campers, he is never
too busy to lend instruction or a helping hand. He is always the first to arrive
at camp and the last to leave. He prides himself on his ability to entertain
campers after practice as he hosts a live Q&A sessions with all the college
players on staff.
He is currently a partner at Howard Weil Inc., an energy investment
boutique in New Orleans and is active with the National Multiple Sclerosis
Society, The Academy of Sacred Heart and his alma mater Isidore Newman
School. He and his wife Ellen are the proud parents of a 10-year-old
daughter May, and two sons, Arch (9) and Heid (7). Cooper remains the most
handsome Manning and has no plans of losing that title.
Peyton Manning, Senior Associate Director:
Peyton is widely regarded as one of the best QBs
to have ever played the game. Selected with the first
overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis
Colts, and in his rookie season he set five different
NFL rookie records, including most TDs in a season
and was named to the NFL All-Rookie First Team.
In 2012, he entered his 15th NFL season and his first
season as QB of the Denver Broncos, after spending
the first 14 years of his illustrious career in
Indianapolis. He didn’t miss a beat after recovering
from neck surgery in 2011, as Manning led the Broncosto to an AFC best
13-3 record. He also ranked second among starting quarterbacks with a
passer rating of 105.8, third in touchdowns with 37 and accumulated 4,659
passing yards. He set Bronco single-season passing records in nearly every
major passing category. For his accomplishments, he was recognized by the
Associated Press as the 2012 NFL Comeback Player of the Year and also was
named to his 12th Pro Bowl, his 6th as a first-team selection.
Before missing the 2011 season due to injury, Manning started 16 regular
season games for 13 consecutive seasons and earned his 11th Pro Bowl
selection in 2010.

As the Super Bowl XLI MVP, he has completed more passes, thrown for more
yards and touchdowns in a career-opening 13-year span than any NFL player
in history and has torched all the NFL, AFC, and Colts record-books in the
process, won back-to-back MVP honors for the second time in his career
(2003-04 and 2008-09), which in itself is a record, and in 2009, he was listed
by the Sporting News as the No. 1 player in the NFL.
He is the only NFL QB to ever throw for 3,000+ yards in his first 13 seasons of
his career, holds NFL records for consecutive seasons with 4,000+ yards in a
career, and the Colts’ all-time career passing yards and passing touchdowns
leader.
As a collegian at the University of Tennessee, he was a four-year starter, saw
action in 48 games with 45 starts, set 33 school records, eight SEC records
and two NCAA marks, and ended his college career owning SEC record for
wins as starting QB (39-6), completions (863), passing yards (11,201), total
offense (11,020), and completion percentage (62.49%).
Ranked 3rd in NCAA history in passing yards and total offense as well as
posted a 26-4 record as a starter in SEC games, Peyton is a three-time
Academic All-America honoree, started 13 games as a senior and led his
team to the SEC Championship and an 11-2 record, and won the Sullivan
Award for the nation’s top amateur athlete, Davey O’Brien Award for Top
QB, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award for top senior and GTE Academic AllAmerica 1st Team.
Manning was selected the 2001, 2004 and 2005 Walter Payton/ Indianapolis
Colts NFL Man-of-the-Year for his participation in community affairs, he
attended Newman High School and was an All-American, All-State and AllDistrict pick at QB.
Peyton and his wife Ashley reside in Denver, Colorado and are the proud
parents of twins, Mosley and Marshall.
Eli Manning, Senior, Associate Director:
Following in his brother’s footsteps, Eli was the first
pick in the 2004 NFL Draft by the NY Giants. In the
past nine years, Eli has won two Super Bowls and
earned two Super Bowl MVP honors.
In 2012, Eli staked his claim among the elite passers in
the NFL when he led the Giants to their second Super
Bowl title in the last five years. Manning also won his
second Super Bowl MVP award after completing 30of-40 passes for 296 yards and a TD in Super Bowl
XLVI. He is the first Giants quarterback to start two
Super Bowl games.
Manning will begin his 10th NFL season and has started the Giants’ last 135
regular season games, the longest streak among active quarterbacks. He
is also the first Giants quarterback to throw for more than 3,000 yards in 6
consecutive seasons, the 1st to have two 4,000-yard seasons and the 1st to
throw at least 20 touchdown passes 6 years in a row.
Manning was named MVP of Super Bowl XLII (the year after Peyton was
named MVP) joining Phil Simms and Otis Anderson as the only Giants who
have won the award and the only Giants quarterback to win it twice.
Manning played in his first Pro Bowl following the ‘08 season and h.
Overall, his record as a starting QB is 78-57 (.577) in the regular season
and 8-3 (.727) in the postseason.
Manning’s 135 consecutive starts is a Giants record and the third-best
mark all-time by an NFL quarterback. It is the longest current streak in
the league. In each of his nine years as the full-time starter, Manning
has thrown for at least 3,000 yards and 20 touchdowns. In 2011, he
threw for a career-high 4,933 yards. After the 2012 season he was
named to his 3rd Pro Bowl and threw two TD’s in the 62-35 win over
the AFC.
At Ole Miss, Eli set or tied 45 single game, season, and career records.
In his senior year, Eli led the Rebels to a 10-3 record and a 31-28 SBC
Cotton Bowl victory over the Oklahoma State Cowboys in 2003, won
the Maxwell Award, given to the nation’s top collegiate player, the
Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, given to the nation’s top senior
quarterback and The Walter Camp Foundation Player of the Year
Award.
Eli was the SEC Player of the Year and earned the Conerly Trophy as the
top collegiate player in the state of Mississippi.
Eli joined his brother Peyton by volunteering in the wake of Hurricane
Katrina and together they assisted in the delivery of 30,000 pounds of
water, Gatorade, baby formula, diapers, and pillows to the people of
New Orleans.
He championed the construction of “The Eli Manning Children’s Clinics”

To create an environment of greater understanding of, and the
proficiency with, the fundamentals, techniques, skills, motivation
and sportsmanship necessary for success at the individual offensive
skill positions in the sport of football, while expanding the overall
knowledge and strategy of offensive play and defensive coverage.
For almost four decades the Manning family and the quarterback
position have been practically synonymous with one another. As
such, their summer vacations always revolve around the annual
Manning Passing Academy, a family-owned and managed football
camp that embraces the basic fundamentals of football while
catering to the offensive skill positions of RB, TE, WR and of course
QB.
The MPA boasts a camper to coach ratio of better than 10:1
•Quarterbacks – Stance, Exchange, Drops, Set-up, Sprint Out, Play
Action, Screens, Ball Handling, Option, Reading Defenses, and Field
Leadership.
•Wide Receivers – Stance, Start, Release, Route Running, Cuts,
Receiving, Blocking, and Reading Defenses.
•Running Backs – Stance, Start, Ball Handling, Ball Security, Pass
Protection, Run Blocking, Route Running, Play Action, Screens and
Reading Defenses.
•Tight Ends – Stance, Start, Release, Run Blocking, Pass Protection,
Route Running, Receiving, Ball Security, Reading Defenses..
•The Spread Offense – In addition to the traditional Pro-Style offense
we will introduce elements of the Spread Offense that is the latest trend
in college football. The Spread maximizes speed in space and makes the
defense defend the entire field. The defense must also declare their
intentions and that allows the offense to take what the D gives you. The
other great aspect of the Spread Offense is that it provides you the
opportunity to potentially utilize all of your playmakers on every play.
And as always, it’s all about tempo.
The Manning Passing Academy is owned and operated by the first
family of football; Archie, Cooper, Peyton and Eli Manning...and is
an integral part of their lives. As such their summer vacations
always revolve around the annual football camp which is
celebrating its 18th year of existence. The Mannings are always the
first to arrive and the last to leave. The concept of this camp sprang
from the concern that even the most basic fundamentals of
throwing and catching a football were either seriously lacking or
virtually non- existent during a youngster’s developmental years
(high school). It was this concern that motivated the Mannings to
bring together some of the most successful and brightest coaches
and players from the professional, college, and high school ranks
each summer in Louisiana. And although the Manning name has
been practically synonymous with the quarterback position for
almost four decades...the MPA is not just for QBs.
The MPA reserves the right to make ALL room and roommate
assignments. We feel that campers will benefit from the
maturation process and it assists us in maintaining discipline in the
residence halls. Roommates will be paired up according to their
grade and housed in separate dorms that have adult supervision 24
hours a day. No exceptions.
All Overnight campers will stay in one of six residence halls on the
Nicholls State campus. Bedding is NOT furnished (sleeping bags are
recommended), and you need to provide your own towels, wash
cloths and any other toiletry articles (soap, shampoo, toothpaste,
etc.) that you may need. The MPA reserves the right to make all
roommate assignments.
All meals will be provided by the University’s outstanding dining
service.
1.
Overnight
Campers will be provided with three meals on Friday and
Saturday (breakfast, lunch and dinner), and one meal on Sunday
(breakfast). Day Campers will be provided with two meals on
Friday and Saturday (lunch and dinner). All campers will participate
in the dinner meal on Thursday provided by McDonald’s evening
prior to orientation.
Campers will be able to purchase snack foods and pizza during their
free time in the evening at one of the several concessions that are
set-up inside the residence halls by Nicholls State’s dining services.
Although there are obviously no accommodations for commuter
campers...a shower facility will be made available after each
practice session. Towels, wash clothes and other toiletry items
(soap, shampoo, etc.) are the responsibility of the campers.
Due to NCAA rules, all campers must be between the ages of those
entering eighth grade and seniors-to-be in high school. High school
graduates are NOT allowed to attend. Campers will be matched
with and against other campers of the same age­­­­level. Those
campers who come individually or in small groups will be combined
to form their own team during Passing League so that everyone can
enjoy the team experience.
We welcome and encourage coaches who want to bring the
offensive skill players on their teams. Players from the same high
school will automatically be grouped together on the same team by
grade. You will have the opportunity to have your squad practice
together during passing league competition in the evenings.
All of the players in camp are broken up into teams for contests of
“7 on 7.” Teams and groups that come together will be afforded the
opportunity to play together. For those who come individually...you
will be grouped with campers of the same age. Players will play a
variety of positions on both offense and defense to enhance their
awareness and understanding of the game. Everyone plays and
everyone has fun.
Confirmations of camper registrations and shuttle reservations can
all be found on our web site: www.manningpassingacademy.com
(see CONFIRMATION in the menu). All campers received a
confirmation email when their application was processed. Be aware
that some email confirmations do not go through (about 5%)
because your server identifies them as spam.
CAMPERS MUST HAVE THEIR OWN MEDICAL INSURANCE (AS
PRIMARY COVERAGE) TO ATTEND THIS CAMP!
You must have personal primary health insurance to attend this
camp. You cannot participate without it. If you have registered
online you have already provided your insurance information and
completed a waiver. Certified athletic trainers are in attendance at
every practice and in the residence halls during the evening to
ensure their health and safety. Nicholls State’s modern training
facilities are available to treat all minor injuries and illnesses.
This is a non-contact football camp and therefore there are NO
equipment requirements...but there are minimum needs. If you are
a quarterback, you MUST bring your own football with your name
printed on its surface. Campers should bring both grass-cleated
shoes and tennis shoes in case of inclement weather. Mouthpieces
are always recommended and encouraged. And all campers should
also bring a minimum of a three-times-daily change of socks, shorts
and T-shirts.
Every camper will receive several T-shirts, caps, an equipment bag, a
pair of shorts, key lanyard, squeeze bottle, a Spalding J5V football
and more. All giveaways are provided through the generosity of our
sponsors.

Sorry, but due to insurance issues we are unable to provide
on-campus housing to anyone other than the Resident camper and
then only for the dates that camp is in session.
We do welcome all spectators during the practice sessions but [for
legal and safety reasons] we ask that you refrain from entering the
dining hall, dormitories or auditoriums.
On Thursday evening the expert training staff from D1 Sports
Training and Therapy will conduct a performance enhancing seminar
for all campers. D1 Sports is continuously developing and refining
the most current training techniques, enabling athletes to increase
their overall speed, strength, explosiveness, agility and sport-specific
ability. Their speed development curriculum techniques were
developed and refined by strength and conditioning coaches who
are well-known as leaders in the industry.
The MPA philosophy towards performance enhancement is…if we
are going to ask you to run...we want to start by showing you how.
This seminar is offered as a complimentary addition to your MPA
experience.
An AIRPORT SHUTTLE service is available for those campers flying
into New Orleans International Airport (also known as Louis
Armstrong Airport/MSY). Costs are $25.00 each way or $50 for
roundtrip service. The service is offered by an outside company

day of camp (Sunday). A reservation form is available on our web
site: www.manningpassingacademy.com (see SHUTTLE in the menu)
to secure your spot. You can mail or fax the form to the camp office
with flight and payment information (credit card or check).
Payment and reservations must be made in advance, space is
limited and there are no walk-ups. A cancellation fee of $10 will
apply.
When campers arrive at the New Orleans Airport on Thursday they
will be met by a MPA staff member in the luggage area and directed
to take the Hilton New Orleans Airport Shuttle across the street to
the Hilton. There campers will be able to relax in a room with sofas
and complimentary refreshments while they wait for their shuttle’s
departure. Shuttles typically run on the hour starting at 10am.
Shuttles will drop off directly at the camp registration area at
Nicholls State University.
On the return trip on Sunday, campers will depart campus beginning
about 12 Noon and will be dropped off directly at their respective

THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OF DEPOSITS! The $100 non-refundable
deposit is a guarantee of your availability to attend this football
camp. Based upon your guarantee we hire 120 professional
coaches to maintain our better than 10:1 camper to coach ratio.
The administrative cost of running a camp is affected every time a
camper signs up...and then cancels. The forfeiture of deposits due
to cancellation offsets the administrative cost incurred by
processing campers and the hiring of staff and allows the MPA to
keep tuition affordable.­­­
