How you all doing, I'm from Scotland, been out of the game since 2003 but now have the enthusiasm back and interested in coaching. Was introduced to this site by another Coach on a British forum for football. If you guys aren't aware of American Football being played in the UK, then it has a popular following and a good League set up.
This is a great site by the way.

Welcome to the board! Have you ever encountered the USA All-Stars American Football Group. We have been bringing high school football teams to England for over 20 years. Maybe you've seen one of our teams.

I am a first year coach for 8th grade. Last time I played was 15 years ago in the 7th grade. I wanted to think everyone here because with out this site I would still be sitting at home wishing I was a coach. We just got done with 3 weeks of strength and conditioning and tomorrow is our first two-a-day. In the last 3 weeks I have had the best time of my life. I LOVE COACHING! Good luck to everyone this year. As far as offense I just had a meeting with the HC and I do not know what you call his offense, but most of the time we have split backs and double TE and for the best part of football the "D" we run a 52.

I'm from Washington state and coach at a 4A school (largest classification in the state).
24 years old. Third season coaching, first two years as the JV DC and secondary coach, and this season I will be the varsity DC. My first year, we were a 3-4 team; second year = a 4-4 team; now = a 4-3 team. I know that's a lot of changes, but I'm trying to go with what I know and feel comfortable with, what fits my personality and the kids' as well, and a lot of what has been run in the last two seasons will transition into the new defense like terminology and rules.
Offensively, we are transitioning from a fly team to shotgun spread.
It's good to meet all of you.

Let's get right to it. My passion is throwing the football. I love it and I live for it. I wouldn't have it any other way I'm from New Jersey and have been coaching High School football for almost a decade. I am an assistant coach and have always been on the offensive side of the ball. My offensive experience has been the Run and Shoot, SG Spread, and the option (Mid-line, Veer, Speed, and Counter). I just happened to be surfing the web and found this site. I can't wait to meet all of you. I consider myself a student of the game and firmly believe that as a coach you are always learning. I look forward to meeting all of you.

I'm currently a student at the University of Arkansas and will teach and coach upon graduating. I love everything about the game of football, a great coach has such an impact on young people, it has really inspired me to pursue a career. I like the old school option football but am really getting interested in the spread option.

I am currently an Army officer, stationed in Louisiana. I will stay in the military through my retirement in another ten years or so and then intend on entering the field of football coaching. Football is my first passion and there are days when I can't wait to get back.
Lurking around the site in an attempt to stay current and to pick a few things up along the way. Any words of advice from the board coaches will be eagerly accepted.

Well, I guess this would be an appropriate place for my first post... Just came across this site one day, and I must say I am impressed. This site is everything that I have looked for. Finally, a coaching network that teaches me the ins/outs of football! For free!
Anyways, I have no coaching/playing experience (though that doesn't mean I don't know the game). I'm 15 years old, and have decided I'd like to coach later in life- so I decided to get a jump on my (hopefully) future competition by starting to learn how to coach early in life.
And if I can't coach, I wanna scout. I love the aspects of building a team.
I'm from Buffalo, NY, and that means I'm a big Bills fan who admires Marv Levy's philosophies of the game. Basically, that means I'm a huge fan of the special teams and the no huddle offense. And that's basically what I'm working on right now in my study halls- a short playbook of a no huddle, short passing attack.
Though I do have a question on defense that I'll have to get answered in another thread... but I disgress.
Anyways, I hope to post here frequently. It seems fun and informative. Cheers!

My name is Mike I am the Offensive cordinator/playbook writer, and help out with the fullbacks and d-line.I am 18 years old fresh out of High school. I played fullback and all 4 spots of the d-line. I actually got the job because i was team captain since i was a sophmore and motivated the tem very very well and the players requested that i be a coach. But the biggest reason I got the job was because from the start of my senior year i started writing a playbook and when my coach saw it he was like "wow u looking for a job?" then after that I have been helping my team move further and further and since my freshman year we have had 4 staright 10-1 seasons, this season will most likely be our 5th unless we dont make state. but yea i mostly am and x's and o's guy. Also for our defense we run a 4-4 under and its has always been one of the best defenses in the state for about the past decade since we installed it. For offense we used a version of the Urban Meyer hybrid spread option shotgun, and we call it "GHOST". since we put it in we have led the state in rushing for the past 5 years, or have been in the top5. Our pass offense is a top 20.
Our defense has always been at top 20. We always have led the state in scoring defense and pretty decent vs the run. But against the Deep pass it isnt good at all. the team even when when I was on it wasnt very good against the Play-action. and alot of times when we use our different blitzes we get burned sometimes because they over pursue the play or fall for the playaction pretty good.
The reason I started on this website cuz I was given the job to try and find tips to help better defend against the play action and try to get any type of help with the 4-4 we run in both the runing game and the passing game.
Any help anyone gives the team and I would be greatly appreciated?

I'm a first year coach for seventh graders. I coach offensive line and defensive backs (how about that combo?). I'm a freshmen in college and played football at the same school system just last year. I'm still looking for some defensive back technique links so if anyone has a suggestion I would appreciate that.
I just joined today and already love the board. I was recommended to it by my former offensive coordinator in high school.

DC at a 1A school in West Texas. I have coached in 2A and smaller schools for 20+ years. The offenses I have been around are I Slot, Wishbone, I Pro, Spread. I guess that we have run a little bit of everything because you never know what kind of kids you will get so you have to make things fit them and their strengths.
Defenses;
Split, True 50, 5-3, 44, 4-3 Cover 2, 27 with a monster. Again a little bit of everything again!
I have truly learned a bunch since I found this site and I have found out how much I didn't know!
Thanks

I'm a coach in Michigan at the JV level. I'm the OC and HC for the JV ... I have done some varsity position coaching ... Our school has about 650 kids.
Offensive experience with: Veer Wing T
Defensive experience: 4 - 3 3 - 5 / 5 -3
I believe in fast, physical football and prefer to run the ball. I think teaching an attitude will get you farther than a scheme at times if you can get kids to believe. However, as a young coach, I am definitely here to learn.

High School in Texas, 4 year starter at safety in college D2 school Currently a 4A Secondary Coach in Texas Hope to move up quickly to coordinator and eventually to college. 4-2-5, and 4-3 defenses is what I have been a part of so far.
I consider myself to always try and learn more about the game. Anyone know how you can get some cutups from some offenses and/or defenses in college? I dont like teaching much, and just like being around the game, so I am hoping to get out of the classroom asap! haha
