What are some of the skills that you have your lower level coaches teach RB's and OL so that they are prepared for varsity?

Coming from a lower level coach(ME) I would say it depends on the system ran and how much lower level you are talking about pop warner, middle school, frosh,JV?

Generally speaking, I think the emphasis should be on tackling and blocking at the lower levels. Obviously it depends on the system you run as well but if kids can tackle and block well, they can be successful at the varsity level.
RB-Stance/start, footwork, ball handling OL-Stance/start, base blocks (depending on your system), make sure they are using proper technique and not forming bad habits.
Just my two cents.
