Coming from a 3 yards and a cloud of dust high school program that is in the beginning stages of shotgun formations and plays. What are the best formations and passing plays out of it for a team that is basically starting from scratch and will be competing in a few 7 on 7 passing leagues. Base routes ? Base formations ? any input will be appreciated. I figure I will have 1 month to prepare all phases of a base passing game.

stackboy--Much of the answer will be determined by what you want to accomplish in these leagues, by what the other teams are trying to accomplish in these leagues, and the rules / set ups of the leagues.

We need to develop a passing attack out of the shotgun formation. Good quarterback, decent receivers. Looking for best routes to run that we will use for this 7 on 7 as well as building for the upcoming season.

Run what you're going to run during the season. To me if you put in a lot of new stuff just to win at 7 on 7 you're wasting a lot of time.

I whole heartedly agree with Phantom on this one. Use what you are going to install during the season. We had our first one last week, and we went in with three basic concepts, one of our dual-read quicks and two dropback/roll out/play action packages where the routes are the same, but we use them off all three actions. We did just fine. I stopped keeping score many years ago, but according to the fans that were there, we "won". I only worry about proper routes and route adjustments, and QB reads when we do a 7 on 7 with another team.
We are staring to get more selective with who we go against in 7 on 7's. Too many times, you get into these "leagues" and go to "tournaments" and see defenses that you never see in a game. For instance, you will probably see a ton of Cover 2 Man Under. We didn't see that coverage for one snap last season. So we will only go against teams that are going to run their normal stuff.
