Try these flag football tips to teach your players the positions.  In order to quickly teach youth flag football players positions on the field, I take old golf balls and mark them with “quarterback”, “cornerback” etc.

I show the team where these positions are on my clipboard, then each player draws a golf ball out of a bag in a huddle, and on “break” quickly looks at the ball and goes to their respective positions.   We drill this every football practice.

I use two bags, one for offense and one for defensive positions. The kids have to think fast and get to learn multiple football positions.

Works for other sports, such as basketball, positions as well.
