I've looked at that approach. How does that go for you guys? Schematics? Any details? I need something to put on my whiteboard and get my purple and orange and brown pens working on. Thanks It worked well for us last year (lost in the state semis). Just kept the group we had out on the field and ran our schemes. Offense (UBSW) ran quick kick when we wanted to punt, we went for 2 when we scored, worked PAT/FG on Thursdays out of the same formation just added a wing on the opposite side. Defense we went after kicks and fair caught everything that was returnable but most punters in our area weren't able to kick us a returnable ball. Saved a ton of practice time. So really the only true "special teams" we had were KO and KOR/Hands Team. Coach how did you handle 4th and long or pinned inside your own territory?

When we used volleyball knee pads, we just used them for practice and the kids wore shorts, made it a little cooler for the hot days. Friday nights we wore game pants with regular knee pads in, that were only used for games. We lost a lot less football knee pads those years. Another question for those of you that use or have used volleyball knee pads...I coached one year as an assistant with the HC who believed in these. Kids wore girdles under their shorts and VB pads in practice. I took over as head coach the next year and gave them away to volleyball players who needed them and we still practiced in girdles just without the knee pads. I didn't notice any issues other than the kids being happy not having to wear the knee pads, but I'm wondering if they have some sort of benefit. I'm planning on going without them at my new school but I'm wondering if I should reevaluate my decision. Any thoughts as to why they are needed? We practice fullpads one day a week and in shells three days. Shells is everything but wear shorts and no knee pads. I have done this for years with no problems. Kids don’t miss the knee pads at all unless they have to take a knee and listen to a long speech. Lol. Thankfully I never talk over 2-3 minutes.
