7Th GRADE FLAG FOOTBALL STUDY GUIDE Flag Football Is a Game That 7th GRADE FLAG FOOTBALL STUDY GUIDE Flag football is a game that is a modification of American Football. Basic football skills such as passing, catching, throwing, defending and running are used in this game. It is a non-contact sport with minimal equipment required. Players wear a belt with a flag around their waist. The person in possession of the ball can be “downed” when their flag is pulled off by the defending team. Each team has a different color flag to differentiate between teams. A football is incased in a leather or rubber cover; therefore, it is referred to as a “pig skin”. Field – 100 yards long, 50 yards wide (can be modified for school play). Scoring Area – is called the end zone. Boundaries – are defined by: *Goal lines *End zone * Side Lines *Field is divided into 10 yard increments SNAPPING THE BALL- From the line of scrimmage the ball is ether handed or passed back through the centers legs from a three point stance to the quarterback upon which play starts. CLOSE STANCE • “Center” grips the ball with the front point of the ball facing up, back point of ball touching the ground, arm of holding hand should be reaching out in front fully extended. On the command “hike” or “hit” the center pulls the ball (snaps) while turning the ball sideways, both points of the ball facing the inside of the knees. • Center reaches back as far as possible and holds the ball laces facing the Q.B. (Quarterback). SHOTGUN • Center grips the ball holding the laces up (palm facing downward). • “Belly” of the ball on the ground. • On the command “Hike” or “Hit” the center pulls the ball back reaching through their legs turning the palm up with a sharp motion to create a “spiral” motion while passing the ball through their legs by passing the ball back to the Q.B. Center follows through by reaching backward toward the Q.B. with the throwing hand. HAND POSITION TO RECEIVE A SNAP CLOSE STANCE – Quarterback holds their hands palms facing each other, fingers facing forward, touching heal of hand to heal of hand fingers spread hands open like a duck’s bill enabling the ball to fit in the Q.B. hands. After the Q.B. receives the ball he drops back to either pass the ball or hand the ball off. BLOCKING – act of protecting your ball carrier or the Q.B. by getting in the way of the defender. THREE POINTS STANCE – body position used by a linemen when preparing to block the opposing team. CLOSE STANCE POSITION – a method of snapping the ball to the Q.B. SHOTGUN POSITION – a method of snapping the ball to the Q.B.; in this position the Q.B. is about 8 to 10 yards behind the center. HUDDLE – Circle formation made by team members so all are informed of the next play. OFFENSE – team that has possession of the ball and is attempting to score points. DEFENSE – team trying to prevent team that has possession of the ball from scoring or advancing towards their goal. SPIRAL – the spin that occurs when throwing a football to make it more aerodynamic. LINE OF SCRIMMAGE –invisible line that extends from sideline to sideline; spot where the play is ruled dead and the new play begins. POSSESSION – the team that is in control of the ball. INTERCEPTION – when the defending team catches a pass from the opposing team, therefore creating a turnover (causing a change of possession). RECEPTION – when a [ass os caught from one’s own teammate. FUMBLE – when an offensive player has control of the ball, then loses control of the ball and the opposing team obtains possession (example—player has the ball and runs with the ball, drops the ball, and the opposing team regains possession of the ball. KICK OFF – the method in which a football game is started. After points are scored the game is restarted with a kick off. SCORING – * a touchdown equals 6 points • an EXTRA POINT that is kicked through the uprights is worth 1 point • an EXTRA POINT that is a completed pass or that is run across the goal line AFTER A TOUCHOWN is worth 2 points—known as a TWO POINT CONVERSION. • a SAFETY is worth 2 points • a FIELD GOAL is worth 3 points PASSING PATTERNS OR ROUTES • FLY – the receiver runs in a straight line towards their end zone or goal line. • POST – the receiver runs on a diagonal line towards the sideline. • HOOK – the receiver runs straight for approximately 12 yards and turns back towards the line of scrimmage for about 3 yards. The HOOK should look like and upside down j or and upside down fishing hook. • FIVE and IN – the receiver runs forward approximately 5 yards, pivots in towards the middle of the field to form a 90 degree angle and continues to run in front of the Q.B. • FIVE and OUT – the receiver runs forward for approximately 5 yards, pivots toward the sideline closest to the receiver and continues to run toward the sideline.

  • Flag Football Unit Plan
    10th Grade 30 Students 10 days 50 Minutes per class By: Andrea Peterson 1 Purpose of the Flag Football Unit Importance of Physical Education “In 2003, more than one-third of high school students did not regularly engage in vigorous physical activity and only 28% of high school students attended physical education class daily” (CDC). What’s even appalling is that those numbers continue to decline as youth age into adults. In the past 20 years, the prevalence of overweight children ages 6-11 has doubled (CDC). With the increase in size amongst our children comes an increase in the size of adults. If you are an overweight child you are far more likely to become an overweight adult. Of the total of 2,391,400 deaths in the United States in 2000, poor diet and physical inactivity accounted for an estimated 17 percent (approximately 400,000 deaths) (Healthy People). Physical education in schools is very important because regular physical activity in childhood and adolescence improves strength and endurance, helps build healthy bones and muscles, helps control weight, reduces anxiety and stress, increases self-esteem, and may improve blood pressure and cholesterol levels (CDC). Healthy People 2010 identified 10 leading health indicators; number one was physical activity and number two was overweight and obesity. Both relate directly to health related physical fitness (Mood, Musker, Rink). Positive experiences with physical fitness at a young age will help to increase activity and control your weight as you age and go through life. What we as Physical Education (PE) teachers need to improve to help students increase their physical fitness is the participation of physical activity.

  • American Footballs Influence on the World of Sports and in Particular Australasian Sports Is Often Overlooked and Rarely If Ev
    So you think FOOTBALL WARNING/DISCLAIMER The following contains components of editorial license and does not necessarily reflect the views interests or otherwise of the Downunder Football League. Its purpose is to not only inform and educate but to add an element of mitigation to the repressive ignorance and prejudice that surrounds the sport of American football. Achieving this “enlightenment “ requires on occasion examples analogies and facts from about or other sports to assist in the learning process. It does not recriminate or pass judgment on any other sport its assets or liabilities. It seeks to neither, defame or denigrate any other sport its athlete’s coaches or administrations. It merely attempts to defend any inaccuracies misconceptions and negative prejudicial perceptions on or about American football. It endeavors to utilize other sports only as a point of reference to cultivate an environment of understanding and above all respect for American football. American football is about many things. It is about amazing speed and skill its brute strength and power undeniable. It is a complex sport cerebral in nature exploding with tactics and strategy often characterized as a sporting metaphor for war complete with bombs and blitzes within its terminology and courage and self sacrifice on the field. It is about collision and violence, success and failure, maybe a perfect expression of American life where the demarcation lines are so clear they are even drawn on the field. If you prepare, work hard and do well you are rewarded you gain ground. If you do badly or make a mistake you have to pay often losing the same ground.

Acknowledging the fact that a Ranger is a more elite Soldier who arrives at the cutting edge of battle by land, sea, or air, I accept the fact that as a Ranger my country expects me to move further, faster, and fight harder than any other soldier. Never shall I fail my comrades I will always keep myself mentally alert, physically strong, and morally straight and I will shoulder more than my share of the task whatever it may be, one hundred percent and then some. Gallantly will I show the world that I am a specially selected and well trained Soldier. My courtesy to superior officers, neatness of dress, and care of equipment shall set the example for others to follow. Energetically will I meet the enemies of my country. I shall defeat them on the field of battle for I am better trained and will fight with all my might. Surrender is not a Ranger word. I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy and under no circumstances will I ever embarrass my country. Readily will I display the intestinal fortitude required to fight on to the Ranger objective and complete the mission, though I be the lone survivor.

  • Sports Experiences As Funds of Knowledge for Science: College Students' Ideas About
    Electronic Journal of Science Education Vol. 22, No. 4 Sports Experiences as Funds of Knowledge for Science: College Students’ Ideas about Science in American Football Lisa Ann Borgerding Kent State University, USA Fatma Kaya Kent State University, USA Mila Rosa Librea-Carden Far Eastern University, Manila, Philippines Davida Pantuso Kent State University, USA Jaren Maybin Kent State University, USA Abstract Physics and physical science content are essential for many professional fields, and they are an important component of scientific literacy. Yet, students are commonly less engaged in physics learning at all levels. Funds of knowledge approaches to science instruction build upon learners’ real-world experiences and interests in order to make science learning more relevant and engaging. This study investigates how college undergraduates’ football experiences elicit physical science content knowledge with a larger goal of developing physical science instruction that better connects to learners. This exploratory interpretive study utilized individual interviews and a focus groups with 22 college students to elicit their ideas about a variety of common football contexts: kicking, pursuit, throwing, and football deflation. The analysis identified several physical science concepts elicited by particular football scenarios, particular football experiences that could be utilized in science instruction, and some misconceptions or points of confusion about physical science concepts. Implications for curricular development, teacher education, and research are provided.

  • Flag Football-Handout
    FOOTBALL HANDOUT HISTORY: The game we call “football” is indigenous to North America. It did not have one inventor; rather, it developed gradually from soccer to rugby, to “rugby football”, to football. Soccer is called football on other continents it’s the most popular sport in the world today. Rugby is also played almost everywhere. American football is a cousin of these games, and they all involve, in one way or another, kicking an object up and down a field. Kicking games are though to have existed for 2,000 years. Kicking and throwing objects for recreation in America are as old as America itself. In the later part of the 18th century this haphazard “kicking game” assumed a place with the severe mental discipline of college life. As football developed into the way we know of today, it took on many rule changes. Walter Camp is considered the “Father of American Football”. He is developed the rule of the line of scrimmage and 4 down to move 10 yards. In the late 1800’s athletic clubs took up the sport, and professional football can be traced as far back as 1892. It was centered in Pennsylvania and then spread to Ohio. There the league that became known as the “National Football League” was formed 1920. NATURE AND PURPOSE: The object of the game of football (and it’s variations) is to advance the ball over the opponent’s goal line without being “tackled”. When a team has possession of the ball they are on offense. When a team is trying to stop the opposing team from scoring they are on defense.

  • Coaching Offense 62 Coaching Youth Football Coaching Offense 63
    6 Coaching Offense 62 Coaching Youth Football Coaching Offense 63 his chapter focuses on the offensive techniques and tactics your players need to perform effectively in youth football games. Remember to use the TIDEA approach to teaching skills: introduce, demonstrate, and explain the skill, and attend to players as they practice the skill (see page 50 in chapter 5). This chapter also ties directly to the season plans in chapter 10, describing the technical skills and the team tactics that you’ll teach at the practices outlined there. If you aren’t familiar with football skills, rent or purchase a video so you can see the skills performed correctly. Also, the Coaching Youth Football Online Course offered by the American Sport Education Program (ASEP) and USA Football can help you further understand these skills. (You can take this course by going to www.asep.com/coachingyouthfootball.) Because the information in this book is limited to football basics, you will need to advance your knowledge as a coach as your players advance in their skills. You can do this by learning from your experiences, watching and talking with more experienced coaches, and studying resources on advanced skills. Offensive Technical Skills The offensive technical skills you will teach your players are assuming a proper stance, blocking, running the ball, playing quarterback, receiving, and centering the ball. Mastering these techniques will allow your offensive players to better execute your offensive tactics—or plays—during the game. These basic skills serve as the foundation for playing football well at all levels. Football players practice these techniques at every practice from youth football to the pros.
