Hello coaches
Before I get started, I am not asking this question to get the gloom-and-doom opinions of those who think we won't have a 2020 season. Maybe we will, maybe we won't, but until I am told otherwise, I am sure I'm not the only one on here who believes they still owe it to the kids to give them everything they got. No offense but if I want to read negativity, I will just turn on the news So my question is..
Is anyone back to using hudl / zoom to meet and work with their team? Now that you have done some virtual install and physical working out, are you doing any different? With it being July 3 and "2-a-days" pretty much 5-6 weeks away depending on where you live, are you focusing more on install?
I appreciate any feedback anyone has. I hope you all have a safe and relaxing holiday with your families!
take care,
Kyle

For us, we started giving the kids weekly strength and conditioning workouts back in March. Then from March until April they had a football workout to do on their own. For May and June we have been running Zoom practices once a week for offense and defense.
Still had their Strength and Conditioning work out, then added some Zoom install meetings.
This Monday our state is opening up practice with some restrictions. So hopefully we are done with the zoom workouts.

Are you just watching film with the kids? Installing on board? Also I am not criticizing by any means but have you started addressing special teams or is that more of an on-field thing? We are currently open with restrictions. We basically can workout outdoors and do drills without a football or dummies. We are hoping we can move into that next phase of re-opening soon in Michigan but just thinking through all scenarios.. |

We are currently open with restrictions. We basically can workout outdoors and do drills without a football or dummies. We are hoping we can move into that next phase of re-opening soon in Michigan but just thinking through all scenarios.. Kids accept the Zoom inventation. Most appear to be using their phone but we ask them to find a place in their yard or in the home to do the workout. OL/DL can get their footwork done in a fairly enclosed space. Have had lineman use chairs as dummies. LB/RB's work on body position and hand fits for shedding blocks, footwork on base run plays DB and WR's are the most difficult. They have to find a little bit more grass and will run routes or back peddle type drills while the coaches watch. They will also focus on tackling fundamentals. Specialist have a work out I gave them, not a lot of buy in from that group. As far as team special teams. There has been none. Come this week, on the days we are allowed to do football in small groups, I have given each position group 2 drills to work on in their groups. (An avoidance drill for KO and hit the block point for punt). The reality of the situation is I do not believe, outside of some skill drill work, that we can do actual Special Teams stuff until August. Furthermore, this will probably mean, certain kids are going to get plugged in to spots at the start of the season as there will not be much talent evaluation. |
