ok so I am in the process of writing out the rules, line calls, and whole scheme all together. I have written 3 different sets of rules for each play. Rules VS 4-4. 5-3, and a 6-3. The calls are pretty basic, just mostly "i got 79..., blocking stunts, covered/uncovered.
Do you think this would be too complex for a Pee-Wee level team?

3 different sets of rules? The whole idea behind rules is so that your kids can block ANY AND ALL FRONTS by using their set of rules for a specific play.
heres and example of rules and calls for a power off tackle play...
"ray 34 power" for the double wing offense
center- MOMA- man on, man away- if both then call "domino" to alert playside guard to block down psg- GOD -gap/on/down pst- GOOD -gap/on/outside gap/down pste- king pin/ gap/down/backer ps wing- fbi (first backer inside)
bsg- pull lead and wall off bst- pull lead and wall inside bste- cut b gap to c gap
now, those rules DO NOT change at all no matter what defense the kids see...they just here the play called and know what rules to use.
With lil kids here is a sample of what they would have to know to run THE FANTASTIC FIVE FOR THE DOUBLE WING.
LETS TAKE THE RIGHT TE FOR EXAMPLE... this is what the coaches would have to teach him...
[glow=red,2,300]playside[/glow] ray34 power= gap/down/backer lee 34 counter= gap/down/backer ray38 sweep= block #2 dlinemen to the inside Ray 40 quick trap= fbi Ray 41 wedge xx= wedge into tackles hip
[glow=red,2,300]backside rules[/glow] lee 25 power- cut b gap to c gap ray 25 counter- cut b gap to c gap lee 29 sweep- pizza block lee 41 quick trap- cut b gap to c gap lee 40 wedge xx- wedge into tackles hip
now, you can see that a) its not much to learn and b) the backside rules are few and the playside rules are few. you can easily put a wrist coach on a kid and help with both calls and rules if need be. I tell the kids "if you can learn the cheat codes to madden 2008 then you can learn your blocking rules!" i also remind them "i know all of them for all of your positions so you can learn your rules for your position!" and that usually gets a laugh.

I agree with Steve on this one. For the first time player he is not going to be able to recognize the front, remember the rule for that front and then make the line calls and then correctly block the right guy. We block everything GOD, inside Gap, On, Unconditional Down. We dont care what defense it is, we use this rule and almost always get a double team at the POA. On Wedge plays we wedge block, the kids hear the wedge tag and wedge block. The Center blocks MOMA on traps or reverses and steps playside on everything else. We do pull one player, our RG on off tackle strong, reverses, sweeps and traps, otherwise he is GOD too. My OLine plays aggressively because they always know who to block. Indecision and compexity= lack of aggression at this age. We run unbalanced Single Wing.

Check out SAB (Severe Angle Blocking) or TKO blocking on www.gregorydoublewing.com. You will love this stuff if you are coaching young kid and can incorporate this type of blocking regardless of the type of system that you use. You need to keep your system simple. If a player does not know who to block he will not block anyone. A simple system also allows you to spend more time practicing technique instead of wasting a lot of time on reviewing the blocking rules over and over again.

ok so I am in the process of writing out the rules, line calls, and whole scheme all together. Brett: There you have it -- GOD and variations, SAB, TKO, and Wedge blocking, all in one short thread. THOSE are blocking rules. As far as calls go, I keep mine as simple as possible, even well above the youth level. For example, I often get by with three run-blocking calls: Down: Everyone blocks the first gap away from where the ball is going. Up: Stunningly, everyone blocks the first gap toward where the ball is going. Pinch #: I can also create a "point wedge" by having the line call (for example) "Pinch 4", which brings everyone in toward the 4 hole, and the lineman over that hole becomes the apex of the wedge. Very useful if you see a blitz coming, and hard to screw up. And that gets me through just about every youth situation I can think of...

Brett is in G.O.O.D shape now, I sent him my double wing dvd set so he has a pretty good starting point if he wants to make his own rules or use mine. - Steve
