From Ryan”¦
I think that the best thing I can do as a [tag]football[/tag] [tag]coach[/tag] is provide my players with fun rewards for hard work. I know that this is nothing new, but it is something that [tag]coaches[/tag] should continue to provide for their teams until the end of time. Every so often, I try to break through the monotony of practice with station work that includes fun. For example:
1. Dizzy Bat [tag]drill[/tag]: Spin around the bat 10 times, and find the loose football
2. Monkey Rolls
3. Leap Frog
4. The gauntlet
5. An obstacle course which involves a variety of football skills, ultimately concluding with a shot on a tackling dummy
6. Steal the Bacon
I firmly believe that players get very motivated through this type of practice. They get that fire back which sometimes gets lost throughout the course of a season.
