The Nationals Drill Camp is designed and hosted by international drill enthusiast Sports Network International of Daytona Beach, Florida. The camp will bring together many of the finest JROTC drill instructors and other individuals with specialized drill talent and skills from across the United States for a week of all-service, intense drill instruction. Junior ROTC cadets from the 3,500 schools internationally make up the bulk of attendees, but additionally Young Marines, Civil Air Patrol, Naval Sea Cadets, as well as Army Cadet Corps cadets of high school age are welcome and encouraged to attend to make yourself and just as important, your entire unit better drillers! Both cadets and JROTC instructors who take the class will leave with a heightened sense of knoweldge and better skills to improve the overall unit enviroment, not only in drill. This week-long drill camp is presented with Army, Air Force and Navy/Marine drill manual focus to ensure all cadets have a solid background in their particular discipline.

While this is no boot camp, the NDC is hosted in a military environment and therefore, cadets will be expected to maintain discipline, effort and a positive attitude throughout. Whether in the classroom, on the drill pad, or on the numerous team-building/leadership-building activities, the cadets of the NDC are better drillers & citizens simply by attending.

Instruction within all service manuals is a basic part of the Nationals Drill Camp so cadets of all backgrounds can learn from the drill experts! Cadets will learn service specific training within their own service manuals to include the intricacies of AF Manual 36-2203, Army FM 3-21.5, and MCO-P5060.20 (the basis for Navy & Marine cadet instruction), to provide cadets of every service detailed knowledge from their service manuals. Cadets serve in leadership roles to hone their knowledge and ready themselves to take this information home to better their entire drill team.
