How to run this drill
Football Offensive Blocking is built for youth, high-school, and volunteer coaches who need clear drill language — not a random cone circuit. Beginners can install the first progression; experienced staffs can layer competition.
- Read the purpose once, then walk the setup on air before live tempo.
- Demonstrate one clean rep so players see landmarks, pad level, and finish.
- Run short competitive periods — quality reps beat long lines.
- Close with one coaching cue players can repeat in the huddle next period.
Full drill
I was at practice last night used this suggestion for a [tag]football offensive blocking[/tag] [tag]drill[/tag] that was sent to my by one of my readers. Keep em coming! 
From Chuck,
Square Drill
4 cones 10 yard square
Entire team around the square
One player is a oOffensive line
One player is a Defensive line
One player is a Running Back with a ball
On cadence the [tag]offensive line[/tag] fires off, hits the [tag]defensive line[/tag] and drives them out of the square. Once they have done that the O line is finished and leaves the square. D line then has to [tag]tackle[/tag] the running back.
Most of the time the O line will not drive the man out of the square. It becomes a tough [tag]football[/tag] [tag]blocking[/tag] drill for the O line. You can also work the D line on swim, rip etc to get to the ball carrier. The [tag]running back[/tag] must learn to follow his [tag]blocker[/tag] by staying on the butt of the offensive line. Outside players are routing for their guy.
