  • PHYSICAL EDUCATION Unit: Flag Football STUDY GUIDE
    FLAG FOOTBALL STUDY GUIDE Description of Game One hand or two hand touch football is a game which is similar to both rugby and American football. However, some major differences do exist: 1) The ball carrier is "stopped" when a defensive places one or two hands on offensive player carrying the football. 2) Blocking is not allowed, but in its place a technique called "shielding" is substituted. Both of these modifications are employed to insure safety. The ball is advanced toward the goal line only by means of the forward pass. All players are eligible pass receivers, including the center. History The game of football is an offshoot of both soccer and rugby. The colleges of Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Rutgers were among the first to play the game. Since 1869, regulation football rules have been added and are continuously being modified, even at the present time. The game of one or two hand touch football is merely a modification of regulation football. Some of the major differences between one/two hand touch football and regulation football are the rules regarding "no body contact" and no diving. The one/two hand touch football game which you play in class is a modification of regulation football. The modifications which are made will provide for a safer, more practical and enjoyable activity. Scoring 1. Touchdown = 6 points. 2. Safety = 2 points. Some Players & Positions to Help You Understand High School , College , & Pro Football Offensive Players Quarterback (QB) - field general - after taking the snap from the Center, the QB can pass, handoff, toss, or run with the ball (only after a defensive player crosses the Line of Scrimmage).

  • Defensive Manual
    TEAMWORK SIMPLY STATED, TEAMWORK WINS CHAMPIONSHIPS! Team Philosophy There are only three things that I ask you to believe in unquestionably. If you believe in these three things then you will be a part of this team no matter what your abilities or talents may be or how many mistakes you may make. Likewise, if you do NOT believe in these three things with all your heart and soul, then you will not be a part of this team no matter what your abilities or talents may be or how perfect you may be. You must believe in: 1. YOURSELF. To be successful in anything you must believe (care, trust, confidence) in yourself. If you do not believe in yourself, no one else will. 2. TEAMATE. You must believe in your team mate. We cannot accomplish anything of great value in life without help. Even Jesus had help; he had 12 team mates; it only took one to betray him and the team. If you have a team mate that you do not believe in, then we must build him up 3. COACHES. Finally, you must believe in your leaders, the coaches for we are apart of the team. After Judas betrayed Jesus and the Jews crucified Him, the apostles denied knowing Him and went into hiding. But their faith in Him reunited them and revived their belief in each other which provided them the courage they needed to dedicate and give their lives to His teachings. Thanks to those faithful 11, the teachings of Jesus live today. Nothing of any great significance was ever accomplished alone.

  • See Where You Stand. Get Your New Gameplan. Own the Next Season. Prepared for Paul Hefty at State College 9Th Grade L E T T E R F R O M T H E C O - F O U N D E R
    2020 Program Assessment Report See where you stand. Get your new gameplan. Own the next season. Prepared for Paul Hefty at State College 9th grade L E T T E R F R O M T H E C O - F O U N D E R The differences between wins and losses are often measured by yards. We all know this as coaches. A rst down conversion here, or a missed missed block there, can mean the difference between sub-.500 seasons and championships. Traditional coaching philosophies are full of passive rhetoric like, “If only we would have done this.” But the paradigm has shifted to data-driven decisions. Great coaches are recalibrating their mindset from reacting to anticipating. By using the data in this report, you'll be able to control these important game day circumstances. Thanks to Hudl’s national collection of data, we already know the main predictors that separates wins from losses. We're using the 16 most inuential to provide coaches insight on how to get, or stay, on the winning side next fall. The most important thing you can do this offseason is re-evaluate all your successes and failures. We hope our assessment will give you actionable steps to boost your eciency in all these areas. So dive in and get started. You may nd these results to be surprising—and enlightening.

  • Chris Harris Jr. and Zach Kerr Headline the Broncos Huddle by Rod Mackey 9 News October 25, 2018
    Chris Harris Jr. and Zach Kerr headline the Broncos Huddle By Rod Mackey 9 News October 25, 2018 Another "must win" for the Broncos. This week, however, that will be a lot harder to do as Denver goes from playing Arizona, one of the worst teams in the NFL, to one of the best in Kansas City. That was a big topic of conversation on the Broncos Huddle with Chris Harris Jr. and Zach Kerr. While the rest of the sports world is focused on Chad Kelly being released and that Halloween party, the team is focused on football and the 6-1 Chiefs. Kansas City came back to beat the Broncos 27-23 in Denver on Oct. 1, but the Broncos are hanging their hat on the fact that they were able to stay with the AFC West leaders. In fact, the team believes they actually gave the game away in the fourth quarter against KC. Chris Harris Jr. spent some time with a local youth football team talking X's and O's on Tech Time. He also played "Who am I?" The game which tests how well the Broncos actually know their teammates. -I was drafted by the Dolphins in the 3rd round -My dad played four seasons in the NFL -My brother played six season in the NFL -Played on three FCS national championship teams -My college mascot are the Bison Who Am I? The answer.... Billy Turner. Did Chris get the answer right? Make sure to catch the Broncos Huddle when it airs for a second time on Channel 20 at 10:30pm.

  • Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy
    Axiomatic Design of a Football Play-Calling Strategy A Major Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of the WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering by _____________________________________________________________ Liam Koenen _____________________________________________________________ Camden Lariviere April 28th, 2016 Approved By: Prof. Christopher A. Brown, Advisor _____________________________________________________________ 1 Abstract The purpose of this MQP was to design an effective play-calling strategy for a football game. An Axiomatic Design approach was used to establish a list of functional requirements and corresponding design parameters and functional metrics. The two axioms to maintain independence and minimize information content were used to generate a final design in the form of a football play card. The primary focus was to develop a successful play-calling strategy that could be consistently repeatable by any user, while also being adaptable over time. Testing of the design solution was conducted using a statistical-based computer simulator. 2 Acknowledgements We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the following people, as they were influential in the successful completion of our project. We would like to thank Professor Christopher A. Brown for his advice and guidance throughout the yearlong project and Richard Henley for sharing his intellect and thought process about Axiomatic Design and the role

Always know where the QB set up point is. This knowledge is vital so that the blocker will position himself properly in relation to the QB and the rusher. 2. Be patient. Don’t commit too soon. Let the rusher make the first commitment unless it’s a pass play requiring an aggressive technique. 3. Get into the pass set quickly. Don’t allow the rusher to make contact while you are still in the process of getting into the fundamental pass pro position. 4. Use of hands is vital. The player who establishes inside hand position on his opponent first will almost always win. 5. If you are covered by a down defender, always know if you have help and where that help is coming from. 6. Maintain a loose and relaxed posture prior to contact. Don’t tie yourself up by being too rigid prior to contact. You won’t be able to adjust to a move by the defender. 7. Stay off your toes. You will be susceptible to being pulled. Stay relatively flat-footed with the weight on the inside of bother feet. 8. Don’t lean on the defender after contact (“Don’t lean on your hands” is the term we use).
