Take a look at these submissions from Bob and Andy. These are great examples of [tag]All American youth football[/tag] [tag]drills[/tag] that can work with all age groups.

The [tag]football[/tag] [tag]drill[/tag] I used last season which I have not seen any team ever do, for 7 and 8 year olds–I think it’s great for any age, probably [tag]running backs[/tag] mostly.
They line up for [tag]agility[/tag] drills at 15 yard distance, three to four lines of players. First hopping on one foot backwards and switching feet on their next turn up, and when they are done, I have them go forward on each foot.
By the end of the season they were good at it.

Here is a drill our kids love.
First a [tag]tackling[/tag] dummy is set up 7 yards away with a football positioned on top.
Then the player is to get in a 3 point stance with a [tag]coach[/tag] holding a shiver between the player and the dummy. Another coach blows the whistle and the player must get by the coach and tackle the dummy knocking the football to the ground. He must then roll off and recover the football.
