I got the inspiration for this [tag]football[/tag] coaching tip from one of my subscribers. It includes a fresh idea for a [tag]defensive back football drill[/tag]. Try it out and let me know what you think!
From Bill”¦
I’m going to give you a [tag]football drill[/tag] that has worked well for us. This is a [tag]defensive line football drill[/tag] for getting a good pass rush.
I take a football and paint it green. I then attach it to some fishing line and a small pole. I hold the pole and move the ball on different snap counts. I have my defensive line line up and on the slightest movement they get up field. The point of this is they really have to concentrate on the ball.
This works very well at getting them to concentrate on the ball. It is a very simple drill that works really well. This helped us to two division titles and a state title over the last two seasons. We also had 4 all-division linemen and 1 all-state lineman this past season. I hope this helps some of you other [tag]football coach[/tag]es.
