  1. 4th GradePlaybook

  2. Coach Bill Rosburg Chanhassen Storm Football Goals • Provide a rewarding team experience for young people in our community. • Hire knowledgeable, student centered leaders and create an environment for them to succeed.  • Ensure that all participants reach their potential, be it professionally, academically or athletically.  • Teach more than football.  • Establish urgency in all that we do.  • Build a “football family” that community members, staff and players of all ages want to be a part of. “They won’t care what you say until they know that you care…….about each of them, as individuals first, then a football players.”

  3. Do’s • Practice Planning: coaches should have a written practice plan. Practices that are organized and actively ensure that all kids are involved in learning. • Reward positive attendance, promptness, attitude, effort and team spirit. • Be sure that all players have a role that they understand and find value in. Especially those that are the “least capable.” • Assign player captains and rotate weekly. • Set team goals and refer to them often. They don’t have to be football specific. Ex. “Great attitude and team chemistry”……Give examples of teams that exhibit these qualities or traits. • Keep practice drills short and give them names. You can use those provided or come up with others and even name them after players that demonstrate great hustle, etc; in that drill. • Be sure to make the experience as important as the trophy. “Focus on the process, not the prize.” • Teach more than football. Talk about qualities of character that will make them successful in football and in life……Discipline, Hard Work, Integrity, Playing with Class, etc; • Coaches must support each other. When sharing your vision to parents or others in the community it should be the same message from all of us. • Hard work is Fun! Give examples of how hard work has paid off in your own lives.

  4. Don’t(s) • Never use profane language and don’t allow it coming from the kids either. • Never grab a player by the facemask. If you need to have the player's complete attention say, "Look me in the eye". Never put player safety second. • Don't forget to work on special teams. • Don't forget to teach the players the rules. • Don't forget to tell players WHY they are doing a drill, skill, tactic, etc. • Don't forget to plan each practice. • Don't act like a Drill Sergeant! • Don't forget to coach the entire team. Players of all abilities need your attention. • Don't waste time on excessive conditioning. Work fast on football skills to condition your players. • Don't forget to insist that the players drink water. Bring extra water for the players that forget. • Don't scrimmage too much. • 1. Risk of Injury is greater. • 2. Reduces the number of Reps you can get in due to "un pile time". • 3. Difficult to see blown assignments or poor technique • Don't practice after dark (for safety reasons). • Don't do hitting drills with too much space. The players should not have room to get up a full head of steam. All hitting drills need to have restricted space. • Don't mismatch players in drills. Be sure to match them up by size and ability.

  5. Parent/Player Meeting Example • The following is an example as to what you may want to include in your parents meeting. The content is up to you but we strongly recommend that you have a meeting following the first or second practice once your teams are in place. • Introduce Coaches • Players Introduce themselves • Set Expectations: • When Coaches Talk Players Listen • Players should pay attention during drills and watch and learn from others when not involved in a drill. • Parents and players are encouraged to ask questions. • EFFORT and ATTITUDE critical to getting better as a team • SPORTSMANSHIP is expected from all: Coaches, Players and Parents • Player to call ahead if late or missing practice or game • Ask players to bring water only • The playing time requirement is 50% • It is critical that parents be on time or schedule alternative pick-up of child • No equipment or trash left on the field following practices or games • Go over planned schedule (practice times). • All equipment must be present and in good repair or the child can not practice or play. • Ask for volunteer parent coordinator to assist with communication/scheduling changes. • Encourage players and parents to read the rules at: www.chanhassenfootball.com

  6. Introductions: Player/Coach Dev. Comm., Grade Comm. and Storm Coaches, Board MembersCCFA Storm Goals: Implement a structured, grade specific, Storm FB feeder program. This will build a Storm FB Community!!CCFA Storm Coach Commitment: “Teach the System” We want Coach Rosburg to be able to play a game within two days of practice because the kids are familiar with the high school program’s numbering system, the formations, the huddle, the snap count, etc. Therefore, the CCFA strongly recommends that our coaches put in place the varsity Storm program.By using standard numbering system and some basic plays, we will take a major step in improving the CCFA. The advantages will be:The kids will not have to learn a new system if they change coaches.Coaches can spend more time working on fundamentals rather than teaching their plays.When the kids get into 9th grade, they will already be familiar with the high school plays and numbering systemWhen the kids go to Storm games, they will recognize some of the same plays they are running.We are asking each coach to teach these plays to their team and use them in games. You are also encouraged to develop some of your own plays that are consistent with this system.

  7. Offense

  8. Offensive Philosophy • The Storm offense will be Patient and Disciplined! • The Storm offense will Control the Ball and dominate the Time of Possession! • The Storm offense will be kept Simple! • The Storm offense will have Balance! • The Storm offense will be Prepared to attack any and all defensive fronts and coverages. As an Offense…… • We will all speak the same language, and relay the same message to players. • We will trust and listen to each other. • We will find creative ways to get the ball into the hands of our playmakers! • We will attack the weaknesses of the defense by having plays that attack every gap, stretch defenses vertically as well as horizontally.

  9. Veer Offensive Positions LE LT LG C RG RT RE WB QB Key Blocking Points FB HB • Know the snap count – beat the defender off the ball with your first two power steps • Deliver a blow – be explosive on contact with your hips and get to the leverage position • Know where the ball is going – beat the defender to the point of attack by stepping with the correct first foot and getting your helmet on the ball side • Be fundamentally better – always be the low man and maintain the leverage position with a good “z-in-the-knee” • Finish strong – accelerate through your man while keeping your neck strong and head up

  10. Numbering System Holes are numbered odd to the left and even to the right 7 5 3 1 2 4 6 8 Backfield Numbering System RB on the right is 2 (HB), RB on the left is 3 (FB) 4 1 3 2

  11. Huddle The QB will be in the front 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 QB LT RT LG C RG LE RE 3 2 4 Cadence The biggest thing we stress in the cadence is that we vary it! We leave it up to the QB to change the cadence every play or two. “Down” “Color + Number” “Color + Number” “Ready” “Go”

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.
