ABOUT CORY

After a 13-year career in the NFL, former Texas Longhorn Cory Redding hung up his cleats to pursue his interests in education, business, and philanthropy. With only 18 hours remaining to earn a degree in Learning and Applied Development, Redding re-enrolled at UT in the fall of 2016 and received his degree from the College of Education. He spends time greeting guests at Redd’s Barbershop, which the entrepreneur opened in 2013, and mentoring the scholarship recipients of the Cory and Priscilla Redding Family Scholarship, which the couple personally funded in 2012. Redding is currently an analyst on The Longhorn Network along with Ricky Williams and Emmanuel Acho and Lowell Galindo.

TESTIMONIALS

Being a part of The Cory Redding Football Camp is amazing. It means so much to be to able to volunteer. I have only sold t-shirts but even doing that for the last two years has been great, I get to see all the kids have fun and its open to little girls and boys. I get to meet most of the parents and they are just excited as we are to be there and apart of something so amazing. For someone like Cory Redding (being in the NFL) to take time out and give back with a day of fun, learning and skill training is wonderful and it doesn’t cost a lot.

Being involved with the registration process of Cory’s camp each year reminds me just how precious life is. In the blink of an eye, too many of our youth are being lost to wrong choices or even death, but Cory and the men who participate in the camp, not only share their knowledge of football, but the time spent speaking life into the campers is invaluable. The larger blessing is that throughout the year, I see the campers as well as their parents and hear great feedback. The impact of the camp is priceless.

Charlotte Jackson, Camp Registration Manager

It’s always great to come back to Houston and Cory’s camp was icing on the cake. Great energy and lots of fun!

Andrew Luck

This is the third year we have done the Cory Redding Football Camp and we love it. This camp is perfect for this community. There are a lot of kids who don’t have fathers here, there are a lot of kids who are looking for something to do in the summer to get the skills they need for football so for this camp to come out to this community every year and offer that to the youth is just great. It’s phenomenal.

Tracy Elam, Camper Mother

It’s not just about football, it’s about life and just trying to develop young men into grown men.
