Youth Football Practice Number 11 ( Click image to see special price!! )
This is our last practice before our game this weekend. While I'm a fan of Saturday morning walk in season, we will not do any more of these this. We could not see much of that done on Thursday practice. In Nebraska, on Saturday yet to turn Cornhusker football and they get started here very early.
This was primarily a defensive and special teams practice.
The defensive linemen group worked to rip and adjust technique and drills
TheDefensive Ends shed orientation worked to address blocker, play recognition and squeezing of the off-hole.
The Bear Crawl has its normal progression, including squeeze fit tackles and pass recognition progressions.
The defensive backs worked right footwork, opening hips in the correct manner, maintaining the right pillow and closed on the ball and field control.
While we emphasized team defense all worked the unbalanced alignment and requested that the players were comfortableShift against teams that use unbalanced lines (do better). Last week a team has an unbalanced look to reflect the line of scrimmage in another one and we worked on that. While team defense we went through orientation to any infringement, we expect to see, this is all done on air with pin. We do everything from stunt calls and substitutions from the sidelines at this point. We ran backfield coach at positions and had "fit and freeze" repetitions of each base to Playexpect to see such sweeps, dive, powers, counters, bootlegs, drop back and play action passes, etc.
We have to work about 40 minutes of special teams and the teams run the ball in from the sideline (hidden conditioning) Align
We ended on a very high note, as we loved the "Slam Dunk" game that the children and parents.
As guest speakers we had 3 of the ex-offensive line from the Nebraska National Championship team in 1994, which was a real treatfor everyone.
