Balance Your Offensive Attack By Coach K

DEVELOPING A PLAY CALL SYSTEM WHY HAVE A SYSTEM?  ALEVIATES CONFUSION  CREATES CONFIDENCE IN DIFFERENT SITUATIONS FOR COACHES & PLAYERS  PREVENTS DELAY OF GAME PENALTIES  PROMOTES QUICKER DECISION MAKING

THINGS TO CONSIDER  AGE GROUP… WILL THEY COMPREHEND IT?  DO YOU USE NUMBERS, WORDS, COLORS, SERIES PLAYS, OR A COMBINATION OF THESE OPTIONS?  HOW WILL THE PLAYERS GET THE CALL? DO YOU USE HAND SIGNALS, WRIST BANDS OR IS THE PLAYER RUNNING TO THE SIDELINES AFTER EACH PLAY?

THINGS TO CONSIDER CONT…  HOW WILL YOU SWITCH OUT YOUR PERSONELL AND AVOID CONFUSION? DO YOU GO BY MEMORY, DO YOU USE DEPTH CHARTS, DO YOU RELY ON POSITION COACHES TO MAKE SUBSTITUTIONS?  ARE YOU PREPARED FOR SITUATIONS IE; RED ZONE, 3 RD & SHORT, MID FIELD, HASH MARKS, BALL CONTROLL, QUICK SCORE ETC…

OUR SYSTEM REQUIRES THE ENTIRE OFFENSE TO MEMORIZE 3 SIMPLE HANDOUTS  HOLE NUMBERING  BACK NUMBERING  PASSING TREE Once these 3 simple handouts are mastered… We can “Playcall” out of any formation!!! We can easily install and progress into a “Hurry Up” & “No Huddle” Attack!

EXAMPLE: “I-Right Strong, HAWK PASS (O-Line is Pass Blocking!!!), 839.” Reading left to right… The “9” back (Left Receiver) is running an “8” Route (Post Pattern) The “5” back (Tight End) is running a “3” Route (Down & Out) The “8” back (Right Receiver) is running a “9” Route (Fly)
