Play overview

After you have properly set up the defense with consecutive Quick Out play calls, go for the home run with a double move by calling an Out & Up.

How to install Out & Up (Wishbone)

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

  1. Walk the Wishbone 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.

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.
