On Saturday, July 11, 2026, New Orleans Saints cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry hosted his 2nd annual youth football camp for young athletes at his alma mater Pinson Valley High School in Pinson, AL.
The free event was held for children ages 5 to 15 and included elite football training and going through various skilled drills with McKinstry and his staff through the Kool Kid Camp Foundation, whose mission is to build confidence, leadership, and life skills through mentorship from professional athletes.
“This camp is about more than football,” McKinstry told ABC . “It’s about encouraging young athletes to believe in themselves, work hard, and understand that their goals are achievable through dedication and discipline. I’m excited to spend time with them and help inspire the next generation.”
