Chanhassen Storm Football Goals
Coach Bailey Chanhassen Storm Football Goals Create a culture of family and togetherness for all the communities we serve: Carver, Chanhassen, and Victoria. Teach life skills (more than football) to our athletes so they can reach their full potential Build a fun and rewarding TEAM experience that players of all ages want to be part of

Offense

Offensive Philosophy As an Offense……
The Storm offense will: Patient and Disciplined! Control the Ball and dominate the Time of Possession! Be kept Simple! Play Fast and with tremendous Effort. Place our athletes in spots where they feel Confident and can be Successful. Prepared to attack any and all defensive fronts and coverages. As an Offense…… Speak the Same Language, and relay the same message to players. Trust and Listen to each other. Find Creative ways to get the ball into the hands of our playmakers! Attack the Weaknesses of the defense by having plays that attack every gap, stretch defenses Vertically as well as Horizontally.

Backfield Alignment – 2 back/veer
Hole Numbering System Holes are numbered odd to the left and even to the right Backfield Alignment – 2 back/veer F is generally on the LEFT and H is generally on the RIGHT. However, they can be interchangeable. Y X Z Q F H

Backfield Alignment – I Formation (River/Lake)

Backs line up directly over Guards
Layout Splits Line Gaps = 3’ 8 yards Y X Q Z 3 yards H F F 1 yard H Backs line up directly over Guards 3 yards 8 yards Y X H 4 yards Z Q 1/2 yard F F

Huddle The QB will be in the back of the huddle facing the team. He will be the only one to speak in the huddle. QB will call the play one time, C will sprint to the line get into the down position. The QB calls the play a second time. On completion the team will yell break, clap and sprint to line and get into down position. Line of Scrimmage LG C RG LT RT Z Y X F H QB

Cadence The biggest thing to stress is to vary the cadence so the defense can’t guess when the ball is being snapped. The goal by the end of the season is to allow the Q to change the cadence every play or two- which will be done in the huddle. “Down” “Color + Number” (for example: Blue 42) “Ready” “Go” Snap Counts: On 1: “GO” On 11: “GO, GO” On 21: “GO, GO…..GO” On 12: “GO…..GO,GO” On Color: snap the ball when “Blue” of “Blue 42 is called. On FREEZE: “GO, GO, GO, GO…Ready GO”. Q can call “Go as many times as they choose, and the ball when be snapped on the next GO following READY.

Audibles The use of the color in the cadence will have meaning. The following can be used. “Down” “Color + Number” (for example: Blue 42) “Ready” “Go” Colors: Blue: Blue is used most often. It means that we’re running the play as called in the huddle. Red: The play is being run to the Right side of the formation. BLack: The play is being run to the LEFT side of the formation. Number: The second number called in the cadence refers to the hole being run. For example: RED the ball is being run to the RIGHT Side of the formation and to the 4 hole. BLACK 63 – the ball is being run to the LEFT side of the formation and to the 3 hole.

Storm Football Motion and Tags

Philosophy Our offense will have the ability to use motion on every play and from multiple positions. The goal behind motion is to help disguise looks and create mismatches. We will use motion to flip formations and create new formations.

Who Will Motion? Z: Zip H: Hair, Hell, and Hit F: Far and Full
Z, H, or F: Jack and Jill

Zip (Z) Z Z is crossing the formation...should leave on the 1st COLOR in the QB’s cadence

Hit (H) H H will motion into the backfield...he will become a lead back on Power, Blast, Lead, etc. Play call will dictate his landmark.

Hair (H) H H is crossing the formation...should leave on the 1st number in the QB’s cadence

Far (F) F F will motion to the right to create twins, trips, etc.

Full (F) F F will motion out to the left to create twins, empty, etc.

Jack/Jill (F or Z) F Jet motion...leave on 2nd number to ensure timing with QB

Jack/Jill (F or Z) Z Jet motion...leave on 2nd number to ensure timing with QB

Tags KEEP: It tells QB that no matter what the running play is called, he will pull the ball and KEEP it himself (QB FOLLOW). MAX: Tells both Tight-ends to stay in and block. TED: Tells the backside TE to stay in and block. Go: Tells WRs that we want to fake the route called and get vertical. Example: 544 GO - The WR would fake the 4 route (hitch) and go deep. Flat: Tells the tagged player to run a pass route that is flat (parallel) to the line of scrimmage.

Storm Football Formations

Philosophy Our ability to create and operate successfully out of several different formations allows for us to expand our playbook. For example…6 Power out of 6 Different formations = 6 different plays for the defense to prep for.

Formations Split Backfield: Veer Right/Left Pro Right/Pro Left
Twins Right/Twins Left Slot Right/Slot Left Tight Right/Tight Left * These formations can be run out of shotgun as well I Formation: River/Lake Pro River/Pro Lake Twins River/Twins Lake Slot River/Slot Lake Tight River/Tight Lake Shotgun: Gun Right/Left Gun Pro Right/Pro Left Gun Twins Right/Twins Left Gun Slot Right/Slot Left Gun Tight Right/Tight Left And Duece Storm Right/Storm Left Trips Right/Trips Left Trey Right/Trey Left Wing Right/Wing Left

800/900 Sprint Passing Game

Why Sprint Game? Allows our QB to get out of the pocket
Puts pressure on the defensive edge players Allow the QB to be a run or pass threat We can attack the defense at all 3 levels

Sprint Rules 800/900: QB sprint out to the Left (900) and Right (800)….QB should get 8yds of depth Routes will attack the defense at three levels Route tree and tags will set routes on the sprint side Backside WR will always run backside post F/RB: Help set edge O-Line: 800 = Strong RT Hinge LT 900 = Strong LT Hinge RT

QB Reads Eyes to #2 defender…if he attacks level 1 look to level 2.
If he drops to level 2 take the flat If defense takes away level 1 and 2 look to level 3 route or become a runner

813/913 Flat 800 = right and 900 = left 3: tells outside WR to run fade 1: tells inside WR/TE to run 10yd out (level 2) Flat: tags the RB or trips WR/TE to run 1yd flat route

Deuce Hair 813 Flat Z Y X H

Trips Left 913 Flat Y X Z H

804/904 Corner 800 = right and 900 = left
4: tells outside WR to run 12yd hitch with an inside release 0: tells inside WR/RB to run wheel…Bubble out of break and work to level 2 Corner: tags the WR/RB or trips WR/RB to run Corner...push to 8yds and attack level 3 corner

Trips Right 804 Corner Z Y X H

Deuce Zip 904 Corner X Y Z H

874/974 Flat 800 = right and 900 = left 4: tells outside WR to run 12yd hitch with a inside release 7: tells inside WR/TE to corner…drive 7yds and break to corner. Should catch at 20-22yds Flat: tags the RB or trips WR/TE to run 1yd flat route

Play Action Passing Game

Why Play Action? Protects our run game
We must be a great play action team!!! Provides the QB with routine and high percentage throws Keeps the defense honest Can be run out of a variety of formations

Concepts Each play action pass is based on concept routes
The routes in each series will be depend on formation WR/TE/RB must know all of the routes Routes set off of the widest WR on play side

3/4 Pop Pass /High Low Play Action off of veer
We are forcing the safety to make a decision QB reading the FS FS gets depth look for the shoot route FS attacks the shoot route attack vertically Will run vs. aggressive safeties Can be run under center or out of the gun Rules Play side WR: Deep Skinny Post…Get vertical and behind the FS Play side WR2: Shoot route…attack the FS vertically and sit at yds. Find a hole behind the LB’s. Backside WR: Fade

Right 4 High Low

Pro Right 4 High Low

Gun Left 3 High Low

5/6 Power Pass Power Pass provides us an opportunity to protect 5 and 6 power We have to be a successful power run team to be able to throw power pass Will be run out mostly from Pro, Right/Left, and Tight Rules QB: Great fake on power and get depth and get outside…read level 1 to level 3. If Level 1 opens up give him the ball ASAP!!! Routes set by the widest WR/TE on the Power side Play side WR: runs 12yd hitch 2nd WR/TE play side: runs a corner/push to 8yds Backside WR/TE: runs a backside post * Lead RB runs a 1yd flat route

RT 6 Power Pass Y Z

Pro Left 5 Power Pass Y Z X

Boot Boot provides us an opportunity to protect 5 and 6 power
We have to be a successful power run team to be able to throw Boot Will be run mostly out Pro, Right/Left, and Tight Rules QB: Fake power away from boot side. Read level 1 to level 3. If Level 1 opens up give him the ball ASAP!!! Routes set by the widest WR/TE on the Boot side(RT or LT) Outside WR/TE on boot side: runs fade or corner…depending on alignment 2nd WR/TE: runs 8-10yd drag Backside WR/TE: runs a backside post * Lead RB runs a 1yd flat route on boot side

Pro Left Boot Right Y X Z

Left Boot Right X X Z

Pro Right Boot Left X Y Z

7/8 Tag Pass Tag Pass will help us protect Tag and Flow
We need to be a great gun run team to get FS/SS to commit to the box Ran out of STORM Similar concept to Hi-Lo Rules QB: Great fake on 7/8 Tag...get depth...and get eyes to Safety H: Shave Route Z: Corner X: 6 yd Out Y: Fade

Special Teams

Special Team Considerations
General Advice: Minimize chance for turnovers. Field position is less important in youth football. Most returners are right handed and will run to their right. Consider resting lineman during special teams Kickoffs: The easiest way to give up a TD is to Kickoff deep to your opponent’s best and fastest player. Consider squib (ground ball every time unless you have a comfortable lead. Use on-side kicks only if necessary. Kick Receiving Teach your players to fair catch a short one "in the air". Cover up onside kicks on the ground. No Clipping Punting Punts are another way to give up an easy TD. Consider not ever punting unless you have a very comfortable lead or very deep in your own territory. Put a talented athlete at long snapper. Cover the backward bounce. Punt away from the returner. Punt Receiving One good athlete Medium deep is enough. Teach all players to leave the punt alone unless they have a lot of room. “YELL POISION”.

Kick-off and Receiving Note: Lane Discipline is a Must.
