Hi, I'm a new coach working with a team of 7-9 year olds. I'm trying to figure out how to get their passing game going and I have a very basic question. Do you recommend trying to teach the QB to hit kids on the run or telling the receivers to run to a spot and wait there? The former seems tough for kids this ago to pull off. But the latter doesn't seem likely to work unless the QB gets the ball out very quickly. The defenses aren't so clueless that they'll just let a kid stand around open for a few seconds until the QB notices him. How have others handled this? Thanks in advance for any advice. P.S. Rules: Five on five, QB can't run nor can defense rush until five seconds after the snap.

Need a few mis- direction plays for 7 on 7 flag football. QB cannot run past LOS. Any number of rushers on defense when lined up 7 yds off LOS. Im SUPPOSED to be the defensive coach! I cannot afford to purchase programs with a full playbook. Any help and diagrams greatly appreciated.

Hello all, I just joined this side for some help, and boy did i hit the motherload of all motherloads of information!! thanks all for sharing and the least i can do is share my playbook!! Besides sharing, I ofcourde hope you guys can help me tune it a little bit more. First of all some rules: We play 5vs5, 7 Y blitz and no QB running. I have a young team (playing together for 1 year now) and are all the youngest in there division (12 in a 12/15 div.). We have a strong QB that can throw to any spot on the field, he is tall for his age and a true athlete. WR's are tall but not lightning fast, the 2 centres are like night and day. 1 big guy, massive even. pritty fast but raw. The second one, slow... show.. but there is a reason why we call him 'the proffesor". he is damn smart!! And 2 RB's, small but agile enough to make you miss. I am trying to go no huddle this season, just to get an edge. they are the youngest and probably not the tallest so... Also i choose shotgun to give my QB more time and less to think about exept where to go with the ball. He is a smart kid so on the runs, i give him the freedom to either give it to the HB or pitch it to the WR... but i do give advice when needed . please let me know what you guys think, cause i am green as grass (with just 1 full season under my belt). thanks and keep winning!!!
