Play overview

How to install Flood (Wing-T)

Use this teaching progression for youth football practice — walk-through first, then live reps.

1. Walk the Wing T alignment on air — every player finds their landmark before the snap.
2. Teach the Quarterback assignment first from the diagram, then layer the rest of the call.
3. Rehearse the mesh or handoff at walk-through tempo until timing is automatic.
4. Add a scout look (or cones) that matches when you want to call this play in a game.
5. Script 4–6 live reps, then export the diagram for your staff chat or install sheet.

When to call this play

The Quarterback will have three options on this play: 1) Throw a Quick out to the Wingback, 2) Throw a Deep Corner to the Tight End, or 3) Keep the ball and run it down the sideline.

Coaching tips for youth teams

• Keep language identical on the practice field and in the huddle — one name, one job.
• Film the first live reps; pause on the landmark, not just the ball.
• Pair this with a complementary play from the same formation so defenses cannot key one look.

Formation variants

Same play name, different alignments — keep language consistent across your youth football playbook.
