Coming up with new ideas for conditioning for youth football can sometimes be a challenge.  Here are a couple of football drills that two of my readers sent in that work well.Conditioning for Youth Football

From David
To keep all football players active: I run two stations with my two QB’s.

I have a receiver, defender, and center.
The QB makes a play with the wide receiver. After the play, they all rotate except for the QB.  The wide receiver moves to Defender, Defender moves to
Center, Center moves to wide receiver.

If you have more than three players (other than the QB) in the group, you
can include a rusher (have the player count to two) or you can have them wait in line at the WR spot.  Kids love it. QB practices throwing to each player. Each player runs routes and defends.

From Steve
My favorite football drill is a race.
You have 2 teams and start with a 10 yard sprint.
Next an in and out ladder drill.
Then tackling the dummy and finish with a sprint for 10 yards.
