Hi Guys,
I'm HC and co-OC on a Bantam (14-15 years old) AAA team in Québec Canada.
We play american football BUT with 12 players & a 110 yards field. Everything else is by american rules.
I've been coaching for 5 years now. Wasn't a good football player. I switch to coaching at 18 years old.
For the moment we're planing on using basic offense:
Simple I formation balanced (lot of motions)
x x x x x x x x x x x x
Gun Split
x x x x x x x x x x x x
and finaly a nice bunch formation tha confuse every team to date
x x x x x x x x x x x x

Defensive Coordinator at a 2A (Now 4A) school in Virginia Offensive = Multiple Pro (A lot of personnel Groupings and formations - base run is iso, power, toss, outside zone, inside zone) Defense = Multiple 4-3
I would like to talk to anyone any time about scheme/drills - shoot me a message to discuss anything I am up for it. I will share offensive/defensive playbooks and ideas as well as drill manuels I have created.

Inside linebacker coach at a 5A program in South Louisiana. This past season was my first in high school. I've coached middle school ball in a neighboring district.
I'm here to learn and so far I have learned a lot. Thanks to all for posting your ideas and philosophies.

I feel the need to reintroduce myself, haha.
I registered some time ago but never became particularly involved in posting. This board has been a tremendous resource though - I love it.
Western Pennsylvania native and I am an assistant coach at South Fayette High School (just 8-10 miles south of the city). I'm a young coach, working in the District and finishing up my Masters at Duquesne University.

Reading the posts here it occurred to me that I might need to reintroduce myself since I've changed my screen name since I first introduced myself (as "phantom").
I'm the DC at Kecoughtan HS in Hampton, VA, going into my second year there. I've been coaching since 1978 all in the same league (this is the fifth school where I've coached). Besides being DC I work with DBs and OL, a combination that some find odd but I enjoy because it allows me to work with nearly ever player on the team.
I'm a retired History teacher, and am originally from NE Pennsylvania. I played G and LB in HS, LB in college (at a school that no longer has a varsity football program), and two years of semi-pro football (definitely more semi than pro).
We run a 4-3/4-2 (whatever you want to call it( on defense and a Pro-I on offense.

I don't know if I ever introduced myself or not, so let's do it again.
My name is Seth, I'm a football coach based out of Murfreesboro, Tennessee.
I'm currently enrolled in the United State Sports Academy trying to finish my degree while I work year round as a coach. I work as a QB Coach for a local semi-pro team, I'm the head coach for a 7 on 7 team for 13-14 year olds in the summer time, and in the fall I coach 13-14 year olds in tackle football.
My specialty is quarterbacks and the offense, despite the fact I played all of my career on defense.
Look forward to continuing the talks.

I just spent 7 hours reading away on this board before I saw this.
My name is Casey, and I am 25 years old. I played only 2 years of high school football in the DFW area, and rode the bench the majority of it, haha. That said, I breath football year round, from high school up. I have probably been to 40+ high school games since I have graduated, all despite never have a favorite team. I just love going to see all the great games in the Northern Texas area.
I'm currently in the military, and overseas for the past 3 years, so I haven't got a chance to volunteer anywhere. However, I do always coach my base's flag football and youth basics teams, and I thoroughly enjoy it.
I have read a dozen or so books, with my favorites being Mike Leach's and "War Room", a book about Belichick creating a dynasty. From their accounts of becoming a coach I believe it is the job for me once I leave the military in a few years.

Name is Michael Marcatos. 45 years young. I played football for as long as I could remember. I think it was PAL when I was a kid here in St Cloud/Kissimmee Florida. We played in an out doors rodeo back then. Played all 4 years of high school ball in Enka North Carolina before joining the military.
Am currently a Mailman in St Cloud Florida. I have a 12 year old son. I have been coaching Pop Warner Football in St Cloud now for 7 years. 4 years as a Defensive Coordinator (TM and MM) and this will be my 3rd year as a head coach (2 JPW and PW this year).
Looking forward to a great season!

Hi there,
I volunteered for 2 years at the freshman level working with O and D line.
Now I am working with JV and Varsity lineman on both sides of the ball. Brand new to this program but from what I understand we run mostly Pro-I on O. The defense is still up in the air.
Looking to expand my overall FB IQ in all aspects of the game.

Hey everybody,
I've been a "Lurker" on the site for too dang long without introducing myself.
I'm a player (QB/WR/DE) on a club team in Nancy, France. I also coach the offense of our 9-man "B" team that plays in a lower division than our 3rd division "A" Team, as well as help coaching our University team.
This was my first ever coaching experience and now I can't imagine not coaching. I've got the bug.

Hey everyone. I am flyinghelmets...cause wingedhelmets was unavailable. My playing experience is limited to the high school level, as no one recruits 200 lbs Wing T centers.
But, I am an offensive line coach for a Wing T team down in GA. I have been running the offense since I was about 7, so for 16 years. My dad is also a coach and I have learned a lot about the Wing T from him and people like Coach Perry from Delaware and the McEachern coaching staff (back when they were a Wing T team).
There are a lot of great discussions on here and I think I will be spending a great deal of time on this site.

Greetings! I'm Mike. I am the DC at a small high school in Northwest Ohio. I've been lurking for a while but I feel that it is time to start contributing. I've been a D-Line coach for 17 years and have just been promoted to DC. We run a 4-3, but use a 4-2 as a nickel and a 3-3 against an empty backfield spread team. I consider myself a student of the game, always wanting to understand more.

Mike O'Neill, 25 years old from Philadelphia, PA. Played football from age 5 through high school, attended La Salle University (Criminal Justice) and coached pound ball (UYFL) since 19. This year will be my first at the high school level as an offensive line coach (running the spread to run). Appreciate all the knowledge passed here and learning so much...hoping to network with coaches across the country to better myself as a coach, an educator of young men, and a person in general. Good luck to everyone this coming season!
