  1. I've been a coach for many years at the high school level, but now coach my son's tackle football team. Last year the boys were small, new to tackle, and we utilized Cisar's single wing. (WE GOT CRUSHED EVERY GAME). My QB was very, very slow, and the offense was so readable, that we only made 4 first downs all year. I don't want to repeat the year, but I do like the aspects of the single wing. It's easy for the kids, the direct snap was very successful, (I don't like qb behind center), and with some confidence and skill, they could have done better. I'm looking for maybe something similar. I've looked into the wing t and like it's misdirection, but don't like QB under center. I personally think the double wing is too complicated for this group. I'm half inclined to just go I formation, but I keep reading horror stories about how easy the defense can crush this. IN CLOSING. what do you all recommend, why, and possible sites to get more information. As a high school coach I ran I formation, with much success...but again...these are untalented 11 year olds.
  2. Hello everyone. As a father, and coach, I invited my daughters' 6th grade soccer friends to play YMCA basketball during their offseason. It took some selling, none had ever played b-ball previously, but the parents loved the idea of keeping the girls together and trying something new. I've taught all the fundamentals; (previous varsity 9-12 girls coaching experience). I keep everything very KISS, and the girls have improved well and are really enjoying this new sport. My problem is, we have yet to win a game, at 0-7, we don't get killed, and some are close, but how can we get to the next step, win. We will play these same teams again after Christmas and I'm looking for some advice. I run a 2-3 zone, (KISS) and a 1-3-1 offense. We don't run any plays since they have enough trouble just setting screens, and moving. I have 9 guards and only 1 girl of height. Rebounding is one problem, after someone shoots, they just stand there. Also, they don't react to passes very well, again, just stand there. They are not physical either, since soccer teaches them "hands off". It's been a trial, but again, I'm just looking for some advice. beadlecoach
