Same thing in ontario. A lot of players from southern Ontario try out for these things cost is a big factor.

This weekend team "Canada" (these three teams are made up of a provincial team 2 being Ontario and 1 being Alberta)plays team USA in u-15 u-16 u-17 I believe u-18 is kids from across Canada and there is team USA vs team world. I was wondering if anyone has any players that are on these teams? Or knows any coaches coaching these teams? I'm interested to know if anyone knows how the try outs work to make these teams for USA

Yes cool clinic is the real deal.. In 1998 I was a young 25 year old college online coach and went to the cool clinic.. Sat in the front row for like 6 hours and wrote down a whole legal pad worth of notes from Jim McNally the legendary Oline nfl coach. Great, great speaker and presenter. I have seen him a few other times and he is awesome!!!! Have to agree with that one. I went to his clinic two years in a row he held in Buffalo he was great to listen too.

In canada you can lose by someone kicking the ball through the endzone for a point. Team did that last week to move on to the regional finals in overtime. It's called the Rouge.

We are practicing at the university for the first time all year and they have turf. My question is how do you limit the turf burn? Other the limit contact do you make all players wear long socks? We just started last week and had a couple players get some burns on their knees from just diving for a ball.

we have done paintballing in the past. This year we are going to do a movie night and watch the documentary the boys of fall and order pizza. Bowling wouldn't be something I think about doing this year.

I had the same problem this year. We had 3 different types of helmets what I found the hardest was placing the decals in the same spot on the different styles of helmets.

I'm not a teacher but I coach at a high school so we do get positive recruiting from there. my problem is there are a few small communities surrounding the city that doesn't have football in the high schools and rugby is the number 1 sport. Rugby is the #1 sport? Are you kidding me? In USA? Man, we work our {censored} off here in France to make football popular and US kids choose to play rugby? I live in Canada, the surronding smaller cities is a rugby community.

Hey Guys,
I Coach for a community JV team for a long time they team has been unsuccessful with poor coaching and poor numbers. I am going into my second year with the team we are starting to turn it around with 2 successful seasons. I am wondering what are different things you guys do to recruit kids to play for you.

Why don't you have time to watch film together as a team? Why not just allocate time? We are a summer league. We also just practice at a park where there isn't any where to watch film. We use watchgamefilm.com for the kids to watch film.

for those who don't have time to watch game film with your team how much do you expect for your players to watch on there own? or do you get them to watch any film on there own? we use a website to trade film with other teams so every player has there own account.

this past fall was the first time i coached 9/10's a lot of them where brand new to football and we practiced calling the plays my numbers such as 37/38 sweep or 21/22 dive. the numbers really messed with kids and they were thinking too much pre snap and would forget the play. i dumbed it down for them and just said sweep right sweep left power right power left. they grasped it very well. i had many athletes on my team and we went undeafted. i think it all depends on the kids you are coaching. i am from Canada so football isn't the biggest thing for us up here so maybe its because the kids aren't learning football as soon as they come out the womb.
hope this helps.
