  • THE RULES Fall Season
    THE RULES Fall Season © Yorkville Youth Athletic Association Revised: October 2020 PLEASE NOTE: While these rules are similar to those of the official NFL Flag rules, certain changes have been made to ensure a more competitive experience for the participants of the Yorkville Youth Athletic Association. Revisions in red * All players will be required to wear masks at all times while they are playing. If a player cannot medically tolerate the wearing of a mask during play, they will only be allowed to play if we receive a note from a medical doctor that requires an exemption. *ALL PLAYERS WILL BE REQUIRED TO WEAR FACE COVERINGS ON THE SIDELINE. *ADDITIONALLY, COACHES, STAFF, REFS, AND PARENTS MUST WEAR FACE COVERINGS AT ALL TIMES. ***ALL PERSONNEL WHO FAIL TO ADHERE TO THIS POLICY WILL BE ASKED TO LEAVE THE PREMISES*** 1. BASICS • A coin toss will determine first possession and direction. The winning team will get to determine either their direction or who has the ball first. The team who loses the coin toss will get the other choice (direction or possession). In the second half the teams will change directions, and whichever team opened the game on defense will be on offense to start the second half. • The offensive team takes possession of the ball at its 5-yard line and has 4 plays to cross midfield. Once a team crosses midfield, it has 4 plays to score a touchdown. If the offense fails to score, the ball changes possession and the new offensive team takes over on its 5-yard line.

The home team as designated on the schedule will wear the color/dark jersey with the away team wearing the white jersey. 2.

Seay III - 2 - INTRODUCTION The Wild Bunch celebrates its sixth birthday in 2006. This revised playbook reflects the lessons learned during that period by Wild Bunch coaches on three continents operating at every level from coaching 8-year-olds to semi-professionals. The biggest change so far in the offense has been the addition in 2004 of the Rocket Sweep series (pp. 62-72). A public high school in Chicago and a semi-pro team in New Jersey both reached their championship game using the new Rocket-fueled Wild Bunch. A youth team in Utah won its state championship running the offense practically verbatim from the playbook. A number of coaches have requested video resources on the Wild Bunch, and I am happy to say a DVD project is taking shape which will feature not only game footage but extensive whiteboard analysis of the offense, as well as information on its installation.

    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.

  • NFHS Rules Differences
    NFHS Rules Differences The purpose of these presentations is to highlight the differences between NFHS and NCAA rules. It is not intended to be a comprehensive review of all the rules. Many of the NFHS rules definitions in Rule 2 are similar to the relevant rules in the NCAA code. These include: blocking definitions, scrimmage formation and free kick formation. The net effect is that for these definitions, they are administered and/or officiated the same in both codes unless noted below. Also, there are terms that are different but are the same description. These include: restraining line in NFHS is akin to the limit line in NCAA; face tackling/butt blocking are terms akin to using the crown of helmet/facemask to tackle/block, first touching versus illegal touching, boundary lines versus sidelines, free kick lines versus restraining lines. There are others that are defined in only one of the codes, but have no bearing: offensive blocker, captain, non-player, rule, belongs to, deliberate dead ball advance, between downs, forward, beyond, blocking a scrimmage kick, field goal attempt. We are not going to get hung up on the terminology differences and will use the terms interchangeably. Each rule is broken down into three segments: 1) Low importance – defined as items we don’t need to focus on, and will administer as before, 2) Minor importance – items you need to be aware of, but they involve situations that are rare or are not germane to the playing of the game, 3) Major importance – these are the items we need to focus on, especially if they relate to safety.
