Coming off a 4-6 cam
paign, Jackson County’s
best season in 12 years, the
Panthers, who drop down to
Class AA, go into the sum
mer looking to feed off that
spring excitement.
The Panthers — in search
of their first winning season
in 18 years — started three-
day-a-week weightlifting
sessions Monday as early
preparations for the 2010
season have begun.
Jackson County has other
offseason training activities
planned, including seven-
on-seven passing league ses
sions in July in Hall County.
These are pad-less, non-
contact scrimmages against
other schools.
“Passing league is for one
thing —teaching kids how to
compete,” Kirk said.
Also on tap is a July 26-28
trip to West Georgia for a
team camp that pits Jackson
County against others squads
from around the state in
seven-on-seven games. West
Georgia also offers a line
man camp.
Jackson County has had
a knack for keeping players
working in the offseason,
implementing an offseason
accountability program to
much success.
In fact, under Kirk’s watch,
the Panthers have had more
than 90 percent of its play
ers participate in offseason
workouts.
Kirk expects that to con
tinue to grow this year.
“To me, the summer is a
big deal,” Kirk said. “For us,
it’s one of those things that
we try to take care of.”

Despite returning only
four starters on offense and
four on defense, Jackson
County goes into the sum
mer with plenty to work
with.
With 91 players participat
ing in spring workouts, the
Panthers enter the summer
at 2-3 deep in some spots on
the depth chart. Kirk feels
like his team will be able to
fill the gaps left open due to
graduation.
“I feel like we’re in a good
place.” he said.
