Full drill
This is one of the [tag]football practice drills[/tag] I use for defensive backs and linebackers that works on multiple things at once.
I get the [tag]football[/tag] players to huddle about twenty yards away from the [tag]football coach[/tag]. The coach throws the football up and whoever catches it tries to make it to the line I am standing on. If they do they get water and to lie around and cheer for the other teammates. Most times they go back in.
This [tag]football drill[/tag] allows us to work on the following:
1) Pass interference.
2) Hail Mary’s
3) Tackle after catch
4) Stripping after the catch
5) Interception return
The coach has the call on all interference penalties.
