Hey Jack, Thanks for the timely response. Your advice will be very helpful!!! I will be running a basic 5-3 defense, with a couple of Blitz packages from time to time. I'm expecting to have a very aggressive/attacking defense. Thanks again for your advice. c-mart

I will be the defensive coordinator for a group 9 & 10 year olds in Tomball, Texas (suburb of Houston). My main defense will be the 5-3. I'll also be using the 4-4 formation on opponents with wide/outside running games. When trying to put bodies into positions, what type of skill sets should I be looking for in the following defensive positions? 1. Nose Guard 2. Right and Left Tackles 3. Right and Left Ends 4. Right and Left Outside Linebackers 5. Middle Linebackers 6. Right and Left Cornerbacks 7. Strong Safety Thanks
