I congratulate you on taking the time to make yourself a better youth football coach. When your players look back on their football playing days, they are going to remember you and it’s up to you as to what kind of experience that’s going to be for him. You will find this is a very easy to read book and an excellent resource for not only the new coach trying to get his feet wet coaching running backs, but the experienced coach looking to get better. In the book you will gain access to our legendary practice plans, drills, approaches and techniques that will allow your running backs to excel. Our step- by-step approach will also allow you to successfully implement the skills and drills with ease. Don’t be afraid to print out the drills to take with you to practice as a quick cheat sheet reminder. When you coach running backs well and people see the improvement and unique way you are building them, people take notice. You get kids to come back to your team and many times word just gets around, youth athletes parents talk. That means that you can attract players who might have played for other teams or even get kids who may not have played at all. Our hope is that this will be a tool to help you be a better coach. This book is dedicated to the all players whose lives we touch by coaching. It is dedicated to all the coaches that coach for the right reasons, to train our youth in “the ways they should go.” Our prayer is that you will use this information to become a better coach and better leader. We hope that you use your leadership position to inspire your kids and help shape them into reaching their full potential not only as football players, but also as people. Dave Cisar 7 Chapter 1 What Makes a Good Youth Running Back How do you define if a running back is “good or not? And once we define “good” how do we get our kids to that point? Let’s first start with what good is when it comes to youth football running backs. They: protect the football well, attack at proper angles, seat the ball well, block consistently, burst to and through contact, play physical and aggressive, play fast, have good field vision and decision making skills, have good body control, get vertical quickly, are quick and can change direction well, can make people miss, break tackles, fake well, is dependable/durable and can receive (catch) the ball well. A good running back also has “it” between the ears, he is coachable, competitive, a team player and he is a leader. A lot of people think good running backs are born and not made. While there certainly is a bit of genetics work at play for the truly great college, NFL and even youth running backs, getting to the “good level” in youth football is attainable by most. Our job as running back coaches is to get our average kids to “good” and our good kids to great. This book is going to address each of the areas we’ve defined as necessary to define a running back as “good.” You are going to be exposed to some methods, coaching points and drills that you may have seen before as well as spins on some old ones and a few you probably haven’t seen at all. Approach this with an open mind to get the most out of it. Credentials Whenever taking direction from anyone, it’s good to know what their background is. You don’t want to take advice from someone that hasn’t proven his approach on the field. That’s fair enough, I’m the same way. I’ve coached youth football for 25 years in 5 different leagues in 3 different organizations in 3 different cities. I’ve coached in the suburbs, inner-city and rural areas, all three. I’ve started 2 different youth programs from scratch and had the privilege of coaching hundreds of youth football players, many of which have gone on to play at the high school and collegiate level. I’ve coached DI, DII and NAIA kids and kids who have gone on to lead the state in rushing in the states largest class. Since moving to the Single Wing offense about 17 seasons ago, my teams have led our respective very large and competitive leagues in scoring in 13 of those 17 seasons, averaging nearly 36 points per game from age 7-14. The net is, what we are teaching works, it has been proven on grass over a long period of time. We didn’t get lucky with a group or two of freak athletes, over the long haul we 8 have been successful in every age group and demographic imaginable. That’s all we are trying to get across to you, we aren’t trying to brag. We just want you to know, you aren’t wasting your valuable time. This isn’t highbrow fluff or conjecture by someone that hasn’t been in your shoes. I’ve been there and I’m there right now. It doesn’t matter what offense you are running or what area of the country you are in, you ARE going to be able to get a bunch of take aways from this book and DVD to make your running backs better and score more points next season. Once your parents see how you are breaking things down, your attention to detail and unique approach and the improvement they will see in their sons, you are going to have immediate credibility. That means your parents aren’t going to be shopping their kids around and you might even attract a few stellar running backs from your area. Parents follow where they think their kids are going to get the best coaching and if you roll that way, this approach may help you in your efforts to attract players. We aren’t saying what we do is the only way to do things or even the best way. What we can say with great confidence is that it has worked for us, our players and hundreds of programs that have copied what we are doing.

  • The Debut of 6-Man Football
    The Debut of 6-Man Football at Coeymans High School [CHS] & Ravena High School [RHS] Seasons 1938 - 1943 Prepared by: Chuck Friday September 2008 Dedication Claude B. Friday Coeymans High School Class of 1927 The Debut of 6-Man Football Prologue The introduction of high school football in this community began in 1934 when the Coeymans High School fielded an 11-man team. One year later, Ravena High School [less than 1 mile away from Coeymans High School] introduced its 11-man football squad. Both high schools continued to play 11-man football until the 1938 season. Beginning in 1938 both Coeymans and Ravena high schools converted to the 6-man football format. Each high school had an independent football squad and the rivalry between the two schools was intense. In 1944 Coeymans and Ravena merged their school districts and fielded a single 6-man football team. Local high school football continued using the 6-man format until the 1958 season, when 8-man football was introduced. In the 1963 season 11-man football was, once again, reinstated. This paper attempts to capture some of the early history of 6-man football from the perspective of those years that Coeymans and Ravena competed against each other (i.e., the 1938-1943 seasons). The first three years of competition between these two schools (1938-1940) was captured by a young sports journalist named Fred (Doc) Martino. Shortly after the 1940 football season Fred left his journalist position and enlisted in the military. The last three seasons (1941-1943) that Coeymans and Ravena fielded separate teams are sparsely covered by the local newspaper.

  • Collecting Lombardi's Dominating Packers
    Collecting Lombardi’s Dominating Packers BY DAVID LEE ince Lombardi called Lambeau Field his “pride and joy.” Specifically, the ground itself—the grass and the dirt. V He loved that field because it was his. He controlled everything that happened there. It was the home where Lombardi built one of the greatest sports dynasties of all-time. Fittingly, Lambeau Field was the setting for the 1967 NFL Champion- ship, famously dubbed “The Ice Bowl” before the game even started. Tem- peratures plummeting to 12 degrees below zero blasted Lombardi’s field. Despite his best efforts using an elaborate underground heating system to keep it from freezing, the field provided the perfect rock-hard setting to cap Green Bay’s decade of dominance—a franchise that bullied the NFL for nine seasons. The messy game came down to a goal line play of inches with 16 seconds left, the Packers trailing the Cowboys 17-14. Running backs were slipping on the ice, and time was running out. So, quarterback Bart Starr called his last timeout, and ran to the sideline to tell Lombardi he wanted to run it in himself. It was a risky all-in gamble on third down. “Well then run it, and let’s get the hell out of here,” Starr said Lom- bardi told him. The famous lunge into the endzone gave the Packers their third-straight NFL title (their fifth in the decade) and a second-straight trip to the Super Bowl to face the AFL’s best. It was the end of Lombardi’s historic run as Green Bay’s coach.

  • SCYF Football
    Football 101 SCYF: Football is a full contact sport. We will help teach your child how to play the game of football. Football is a team sport. It takes 11 teammates working together to be successful. One mistake can ruin a perfect play. Because of this, we and every other football team practices fundamentals (how to do it) and running plays (what to do). A mistake learned from, is just another lesson in winning. The field • The playing field is 100 yards long. • It has stripes running across the field at five-yard intervals. • There are shorter lines, called hash marks, marking each one-yard interval. (not shown) • On each end of the playing field is an end zone (red section with diagonal lines) which extends ten yards. • The total field is 120 yards long and 160 feet wide. • Located on the very back line of each end zone is a goal post. • The spot where the end zone meets the playing field is called the goal line. • The spot where the end zone meets the out of bounds area is the end line. • The yardage from the goal line is marked at ten-yard intervals, up to the 50-yard line, which is in the center of the field. The Objective of the Game The object of the game is to outscore your opponent by advancing the football into their end zone for as many touchdowns as possible while holding them to as few as possible. There are other ways of scoring, but a touchdown is usually the prime objective.

  • Bryan Curtis
    The Library of America • Story of the Week Reprinted from Football: Great Writing about the National Sport (The Library of America, 2014), pages 413–34. Headnote by John Schulian. Originally appeared in Texas Monthly (January 2013). Copyright © 2013. Reprinted by permission of Texas Monthly. Bryan Curtis Bryan Curtis (b. 1977) is predictable only in that there seem to be surprises in everything he writes, good surprises, the kind that let readers know they can count on him for a unique take no matter what the subject. Consider the surge in concern over concussions in football from the NFL on down to the youth leagues. It was the youth leagues that fascinated Curtis, a staff writer at the website Grantland and a native Texan whose byline appears fre- quently in Texas Monthly. He wanted to see “how they were processing the news about football. How they were coming to grips with it. How they were, in some cases, ignoring it.” Curtis found the perfect team to study in Allen, Texas, outside Dallas—undefeated for years, loaded with prize elementary school athletes who would realize only later that they were saying good-bye to childhood. His story about them, “Friday Night Tykes,” appeared in Texas Monthly’s January 2013 issue and provided further evidence that he is one of the new century’s very best sportswriters. Curtis began his journalism career by writing about the real world for the New Republic and Slate, first explored the world of fun and games at the New York Times’ sports magazine Play, and returned to the serious side to help Tina Brown, the mercurial former Vanity Fair and New Yorker editor, launch The Daily Beast.
