Dr. Lou Cella, Sport and Performance Psychologist, educates you and your coaches on how to install Air Force’s Flexbone Offense the right way the first time – with the Triple Option Football Academy
and Triple Option Football Academy Camps.
Read how Dr. Cella has helped multiple programs throughout the country.
Before the 2010 season, Falls City HS (TX) had never won a regional championship in school history.
In 2010, after running a camp with Lou Cella as Camp Director, Falls City HS (TX) won the Regional and State Championship for the first time in school history in Texas while scoring 680 points in 15 games.
“The biggest thing for us is that it gave our kids the opportunity to work together in our offensive system before the season started – the techniques and fundamentals they learned was so big, so was the team bonding, and so was having an outside source (Lou Cella) teaching them – this was invaluable.”
– Mark Kirchhoff, Head Football Coach
