Download or read book How To Coach Youth Football written by HowExpert and published by HowExpert. This book was released on 2013-01-15 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We hear the reports and see the video all too often: youth coaches and officials assaulted, fights breaking out at youth sporting events, and parents and coaches losing control over what should be a child’s game. It doesn’t have to be that way. What we don’t see are the thousands of youth football coaches who do it the right way: teaching the game and the ethos of the game to children who love to play. Coaching youth football can be one of the most exciting, exhilarating, and rewarding experiences. It takes a tremendous amount of hard work, and an ability to communicate with other coaches, players, and parents, but there are few things to compare with watching young people compete and win, or learn lessons that will help them for a lifetime. Teaching the game of football goes far beyond the white lines, beyond the techniques of blocking and tackling. Along with learning the fundamentals of the game, young people learn teamwork, sportsmanship, responsible leadership, and the need to work hard and prepare to reach goals. To avoid being one of those trapped in a nightmare, a youth coach must master the ability to relate to both players and parents. Above all, a coach must communicate. It is important that parents trust the coach. After all, parents are submitting their child to a game that is, by its very nature, physically brutal. Parents need to trust that the coach will have the best interests of the team, and their child, in mind at all times. When those interests collide, parents need to know why a coach makes certain decisions, and how that will affect their child. Along with communicating with adults, youth football coaches must be experts in understanding and relating to children. Youth football players have very little concept of the actual fundamentals of the game. They see a college or professional game on television and see long passes, break away runs, or big hits and the thousands of people who cheer while players celebrate. This is far from the reality of the game. Coaches must be able to demonstrate and teach fundamentals. Big plays come out of the ability to be fundamentally sound, and being fundamentally sound takes hour upon hour of watching, listening, and practicing. In the NFL, and increasingly in college, success is defined by wins and losses. The bottom line is paramount. This isn’t necessarily different at the youth level; the bottom line is simply wider. Wins and losses are important, and no one wants to play for a loser. But, if a youth coach is successful, they create not only wins on the field; they also help to create joy in the hearts of children and parents, players who learn how to play and how to be leaders, and, most of all, a successful youth coach gives players the building blocks to be successful in life. About the Expert John Seagroves has taught and coached at the middle school level for over a decade in eastern North Carolina. He and his wife, Corrie, live in Rocky Mount. They have one daughter, Elizabeth, who is an outstanding student and athlete in her own right. He has coached football in four different school systems. In that time, his football teams have compiled a .784 winning percentage. He has led football, softball, and basketball teams to county and conference titles in the process. More importantly, he is proud of the overwhelming success his players have had in the classroom, many going on to study and earn college degrees at some of the most prestigious universities in the region. Mr. Seagroves would like to thank Coach Todd Brewer of Nash Central High School for his contributions on offensive philosophy for youth football and on how to establish expectations in your program. Coach Brewer and Mr. Seagroves spent several years coaching together, and much of the information in this book evolved from that partnership. HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.

Download or read book Teaching Youth Football written by Michael Thuotte and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-12-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book could be very useful for new coaches, especially those who may be starting a new team or those who have very limited staff or even have been thrown into the coaching arena because the team has a limited, inexperienced, or no coaching staff. It can also be a reference guide for experienced coaches who might be interested in a different way to coach. One of our main goals is to TEACH youth coaches how to TEACH their players the fundamentals and how to PLAY FOOTBALL, not just try to replicate someone else's program. The purpose of this book is to present our program (all levels) over a 7 year timeframe in its entirety and show you a different type of a fully comprehensive program that you will not find in any other books for coaching youth football Grades 3-8. From 2007 thru 2013, our 7th/8th grade team compiled a record of 56-0 resulting in 7 consecutive undefeated league championships, as well as being undefeated in games with teams from surrounding leagues. This book is not like most other youth football coaching books which focus predominantly on skills, drills and playbooks and imply that you can simply install what they do typically at the high school level and you will be successful. Instead, it is designed to encompass all facets of youth football coaching expertise both on and off the field, and teach you how to build your program. This book provides information on almost all aspects of our program including, but not limited to, program continuity, equipment, assembling and managing a coaching staff, coach/player interactions and issues, handling domestic issues, finding players, player evaluations, position responsibilities, player inclusivity, culture development, position and playing time management, dealing with parents (significant), dealing with parent coaches, player prototypes, coaching clinics, role models, practice structure and activities, teaching fundamentals, simplified offense (easy to install playbook) and defense terminology (ours), conditioning, handling injuries (significant), game day activities, dealing with day to day issues, paperwork/record keeping, team information content and distribution to parents/players, dealing with referees, total offense and defense structure (ours which can both be fully implemented as described), behavior issues (players, coaches, and parents), team parent activities and responsibilities, and tournament participation. As emphasized extensively in the book, our methodology is all about how we TEACH plays, that resulted in us leading our league in every meaningful offensive category every year. As for our defense, we developed a full zone structure (each lineman, linebacker and secondary player has responsibility for their individual zone), that resulted in us leading our league in every meaningful defensive category every year.
