How to run this drill

Football Training Drills – Special Teams Drill 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.

  1. Read the purpose once, then walk the setup on air before live tempo.
  2. Demonstrate one clean rep so players see landmarks, pad level, and finish.
  3. Run short competitive periods — quality reps beat long lines.
  4. Close with one coaching cue players can repeat in the huddle next period.

Here is a [tag]special teams football drill[/tag] that I think will help the whole team.

Players line up in rows of 4 wide. The first row goes down field about 30 yards. Your kicker can kick them the [tag]football[/tag] off a tee, punt it, or a [tag]football coach[/tag] can throw it to the players down field; it’s a little more accurate.

Then one player down field will return it while the other three block for him. when the ball is kicked the next 4 in line go for the ball carrier and make the tackle. Then the 4 that went for the ball carrier get a chance to return it.Football Training Drills

I like to narrow the field up a little and give them a 25 or 30 yard lane to run in. This gets the whole team involved and players that normally don’t return kicks have a chance to show what they got. You may have talent sitting on the sidelines and not know it.

Coaching tips

  • Keep one cue per rep so kids hear the same language every time.
  • Film the first live set; pause on footwork and finish, not just the ball.
  • Pair this drill with a matching play install so practice transfers to game day.
