Multiple handoffs are allowed as well. In our age group (3rd-4th graders), we see mostly 2-3, 2-1-2 or 3-2 zone defenses. The best teams in our league all seem to favor the 3-2 defense and shut down the run very well. Some also play a mixed 3-2 zone/man defense with the front 3 playing zone, and the back 2 playing man to man on deeper receivers.
Youth Football. Youth Flag Football Plays. Ive noticed in our league that more often than not (probably 75-80% of the time), teams fail to score the extra point in the younger divisions. In our league (NFL), we have no rush zones from the 5 yd line to the goal line. For extra points we have the choice of going for 1 point from the 5 yard ...
1) One or two kids in the middle of field, rest try to get through without getting their flag pulled. When flags are pulled they join the rest of the kids in middle to help pull flags. 2) Pair up kids, short distance apart and see how many throws/catches they can make without dropping the ball.
Coach might yell "Buffalo 2" from the sideline which means Buffalo formation, second play on the wristband. And the wristband would have four numbers 0-9 to indicate the routes. At the NFL Flag national championship were weren't allowed to communicate whatsoever with our players (except during a timeout).
Posted February 6, 2013. This is my playbook, based on 6 total seasons coaching at the peewee and junior levels. In our league the QB’s not allowed to run (unless you use play #9!) and blitzers start 7 yards from the line of scrimmage so you usually only have 3 seconds to throw. I printed these in color and laminated them back-to-back, was a ...
3-1-1 Defense: We never saw this defense last season. All teams played a 3-2 or 2-3 or similar (2-1-2). After seeing our plays they would put their best defender at nose making the razor/laser more difficult. Because of this I added some plays where we faked one play and ran another- e.g. fake laser run Z-bubble.
Posted May 7, 2011. Our league allows up to two blitzers, seven yards back, every four downs. The defense must announce when they blitz, and who the rushers are. This is the ONLY time the QB is allowed to run. 90% of the time, teams just have their QB take off running. This is always good for 5-7 yards, which is why we very rarely blitz.
I track playing time by quarters. I (typically) have 13-15 kids. Eight kids on the field at once, four quarters----simple math dictates not each kid will play equally each game. However, I ensure that they play equally for the season as a whole. Most kids play 3 quarters per game---and some play 2 quarters.
Posted July 19, 2012. Okay so never coached flag football before. The league I'm in allows all 11 kids on the field and every player must play ever backfield position and run the ball every game. They also must score at least one TD during the season. As I am seeing a lot of 5v5 and 8v8 stuff.
Posted October 2, 2010. I had good success with the shuffle (shovel) pass when I coached younger kids (4-6). Of course back then we ran a very basic version of it (this is when we played 8v8). One of my guards would run about a three yard curl. My QB would step back as to if to throw deep, and then shuffle it to him.
