This will be the first time in a long time that Ben’s ProCamps Kids Camp will not be held on Father’s Day Weekend…but that’s doesn’t mean we can’t take a look back at all the fun that has been had in previous camps!




“To me this is what it’s about. I have an unbelievable platform to share so many things, whether it’s about life, faith, family, football. To be able to come out here and teach football, sportsmanship, fun, that is what it’s all about. I just want people to understand you can have fun and be safe if you are taught the right way. That is what we are doing.” — Ben.

Pittsburgh Steeler Ben Roethlisberger plans out a route for Tiberius Reuss to run during his Pro Camp Sunday, June 16, 2019, at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on the South Side. @ProCamps


“Ben you are an awesome athlete and giving person!! What you do for these kids they will never forget!!” — Elizabeth Ann Cook.





“What an awesome Father’s Day! My Dad, Marty Valego, got to chat with Ben. Also, photos of my sons, Brantley and Talon talking to Ben. We had such a great time! Ben is so humble and made our day!” — Julie (JuJu) Jones.


“We took our granddaughter, age 12, and our grandson, age 7, to Ben’s Youth Camp. What organized chaos! It was an awesome experience for both. Both caught Ben’s passes. They talked about the camp all the way back to Northern Ohio. They have already decided to come back next year, at our expense! We also really enjoyed the experience!” — Linda Hawk, Ohio.



This weekend, new HOPE participant Ja’Quan was a special guest at the Ben Roethlisberger Football ProCamp where he was awarded with the Coach ‘Hep’ Don’t Quit Award! He received this prestigious award for his resiliency, leadership and skill shown on and off of the field. Ja’Quan is the oldest of three siblings who he works hard to be a good role model for. On March 27th, 2019, Ja’Quans family unexpectedly lost their father. This unlikely event caused Ja’Quan to dig deep to persevere as he, overnight, became the man of the house.

Aside from this award, Ja’Quan ran the fastest 400mm dash out of all 300 youth who attended the camp! Now that’s speed! 🏃🏾 🏃🏾🏃🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you Ben Roethlisberger and Tickets for Kids for this amazing opportunity. 🏈 🏆 #GoJaQuanGo — Hope For Tomorrow, Inc.



“Thank you Ben for everything you do for the city of Pittsburgh!!” — Craig Muntean.



“I work for a former professional baseball player that hosts camps, clinics and tournaments all over the eastern half of the United States. His company does things the right way, and people love everything about his events.  I love working for his company and being involved with his events, but over the last two days I was blown away.

“My wife brought Maddie last year and all I heard about was how great it was…and I think this year even blew me away more than I was prepared for. Ben and Brett remembered Maddie and her good friend Katie from last year.  Ben even teased the girls about being on the same team again.

Maddie wears a bracelet and necklace with Ben’s jersey on them.  She takes a ‘Ben’ doll on softball road trips with her travel softball team, she wants to play softball at Miami of Ohio, so I guess you can say she is a little over-the-top about Ben.

If she could have a perfect day it would have had to have been Monday. She got to hug Ben twice…she got to talk to him…she won camper of the day…and won an autographed jersey from Ben.  I am not sure she will come down out of the clouds for a while!  The camp was great and I could see how into it Ben was and how much all of the kids enjoyed it…but Ben taking that moment to let Maddie know that he remembered her from last year truly meant the world to her!” — Joe Mulinaro, IN.

My grandson holds onto the ball and heads for the endzone! Heath Miller-esque! — Anita Doddroe.

“We cannot thank you enough for an awesome experience for our daughter and all of the campers! Big Ben spent the entire day, both days, on the fields with the kids. He provided guidance, was very encouraging, and had fun with them. He threw each child a pass…400 kids in attendance! The team coaches were wonderful too! They provided great tips, encouragement, and also lots of fun for the kids. Kudos to the staff and organizers of this camp! The camp was very organized and delivered more than we expected! A big THANK YOU to all for an event well done!Our daughter Chloe won one of the Camper of the Day awards with her little sister Abigail, who was her biggest cheerleader this weekend. Chloe was really nervous before the camp started. She was worried that she would not be able to keep up with the boys who play football on organized teams. However, thanks to Ben, the coaches, and staff she shined during camp, learned a lot and really had a blast!!!” — Lisa & Mike Booth.

We hope to see YOU at Ben’s ProCamps next summer!!
