3 Simple Tips For a Killer Youth Football Practice

Hi there! I'm Steve Tucker, and I'd like to welcome you to Football Tutorials.

After 23 years playing and coaching the game, I started this little website to share many of the

tips, tricks and "insider secrets" to better football that I'd picked up along the way.

And (to my surprise) it's grown into one of the most popular football coaching resources on the

web!

Since 2005, my books and videos have helped more than 32,958 busy football coaches and

parents improve their players' skills and send their teams skyrocketing to the top of the

standings. Here are a few of recent success stories...

In this special report, I'm going reveal 3 simple tips for becoming a more effective youth or high

school football coach.

If you'd like to watch the video version of this (which includes some additional tips and

strategies), head over to http://www.football-tutorials.com/video

Here's what we'll cover today:

(c) Football Tutorials. Get more drills at http://football-tutorials.com/drills/ultimate.html

1. A cool "14 second skill builder" technique that automatically boosts your kids'

confidence, while keeping them engaged, focused, and motivated during practice.

2. A little known "Situation Room" coaching method that helps you plan better practices,

accelerates your team's skill development, and gets your entire coaching staff more

organized and efficient.

3. The #1 football drill that you should be using. At every. Single. Practice.

Ready to go? Let's get started!

Tip #1 - The 14 Second Skill Builder

During his last season as a coach, the

legendary John Wooden allowed a team of

sports psychologists to record all his verbal

communication with the team during every

practice.

Here's what they found:

• 6% of his messages were scolding

statements

• 7% of his messages were general

praise statements

• 12% of his messages were requests to hustle

• 75% of his messages were specific instructions about technical or tactical skills

The best way to improve an athlete's performance is to give simple and precise feedback about

what he's doing, and (if necessary) what he needs to do differently.

The challenge - especially when coaching football - is finding the time to communicate with

each kid effectively, without slowing your practice down to a crawl.

That's what the 14 second skill builder is all about.

As you work through team period in practice and run your plays, observe your kids carefully.

Take note of their technique, alignment, and assignment.

(c) Football Tutorials. Get more drills at http://football-tutorials.com/drills/ultimate.html

When the play is whistled dead, hustle over to a kid, put your arm around his shoulder and

deliver ONE solid coaching point or correction as you walk him back to the huddle.

If he just did something right, praise him for it and tell him what was good about it. If he did

something wrong, give him specific instructions on how to improve.

Stay positive and make it constructive.

For example...

"Good hustle there Braden. When you're finishing that tackle, make sure you keep your

feet moving with short, choppy steps."

or

"Hey Zachary... on those low catches, try flipping your hands around, so your thumbs

point up and your pinky fingers make a V-shape together. You can do it bud!"

You can easily get this done in 14 seconds or less. And by the time you get back to the huddle,

you've given the kid some specific feedback, showed him that you care, and increased his level

of focus for the upcoming play. All without slowing the tempo of your practice down.

Tip #2 - The Situation Room

Planning and organizing practice is the single most important priority for a youth football

coach.

This "Situation Room" technique will help you plan better practices that specifically target the

needs of your team. So you can focus on strengths, shore up weaknesses, and get your team

firing on all cylinders for game-day.

Here's how it works.

As soon as you blow the final whistle and send the kids home, huddle up with your coaching

staff for a quick meeting. Allow each coach a few moments to share his thoughts for the day

and assess the needs of the team.

What did you do well? What do you need to improve? Which plays are ready for game-time?

Which ones are ready for the glue factory?

Take note of what skills or tactics you need to focus on, then put together a rough outline of

the next day's practice right then. (you can polish it up and finalize it later)

(c) Football Tutorials. Get more drills at http://football-tutorials.com/drills/ultimate.html

This technique only takes 5 or 10 minutes, but you'll be amazed at how much it improves your

practice efficiency and level of organization.

It's also a great way to get your coaching staff communicating and functioning like a real team.

Tip #3 - One Drill You Should Be Using At EVERY Practice

The last thing we'll cover is the #1 drill that you should be using. At every. Single. Practice.

Know what it is?

Form tackling.

Tackling is - by far - the most important skill in the youth game. If your kids learn to do it right,

you'll shut down your competition, create incredible field position for your offense, and own

your league.

But if you ignore it, or (worse) teach it wrong... you'll put your players' safety in jeopardy, kill

your credibility, and make it almost impossible to win games.

Here's what to do.

At the beginning of the season, take all your kids through a "Tackling 101" session. If they

master the basic fundamentals, they can "graduate" to the "live" form tackling drill that you

run at every practice.

Start by setting up two lines around 20 yards apart, one for ball carriers and one for tacklers. At

the snap or coach's motion, the ball carrier jogs forward at half speed.

(Quick note: never start a drill with a whistle. Start with ball movement, stop with a whistle, just

like a real game)

The tackler approaches him, also at half speed, breaks down, buzzes his feet, hits, wraps, lifts,

and drives the ball carrier back (without taking him to the ground).

Tacklers should ALWAYS make contact with the chin up, eyes wide open, chest proud and

shoulder blades squeezed back.

Switch up the angles each day, so you can practice head-on tackling, angle tackling and sideline

tackling.

(c) Football Tutorials. Get more drills at http://football-tutorials.com/drills/ultimate.html

If a player shows poor tackling technique at ANY point during the season, he gets demoted back

to Tackling 101 for a remedial session.

Do NOT run this drill at full speed. The goal is to work on your technique. Save the full speed

tackling for scrimmages.

More Essential Drills For Youth Football

I have a few other essential drill recommendations that you should be using in practice,

including the "Fit-Hit-Drive" drill for o-linemen... and the "ESPN" drill for QB's and receivers

I'll come back to those in a second.

But first, I want to congratulate you for taking the initiative to improve your coaching skills...

and just say "thanks" for investing your time and energy into this amazing game.

Whether you're a parent, a youth coach, or a high school coach... I understand how fun and

rewarding coaching a football team can be. There's nothing that makes me happier than seeing

a kid master a new skill, and watching his self confidence shoot through the roof.

But I also understand how challenging it is.

Like most teams, you've probably got kids with a wide range of skill levels, maturity levels and

commitment levels.

So if you're having a hard time figuring out what drills to run in practice and how to run them,

then please don't worry.

With all the different positions, skills, and tactics to learn, football is

youth sport to coach.

And with all the conflicting opinions and advice you'll find on the Internet, in books, or at

coaching conferences... it's almost impossible to figure out on your own.

But here's the bad news. You're the coach. People expect you to know this stuff. And the

pressure is on.

Your kids are desperate to improve their skills, and need your help.

Their parents are impatiently watching from the sidelines.

And your competition is ready to jump all over your weaknesses, and

give them the chance.

The good news is - learning the art and science of

running a top notch football practice isn't as hard as it
