Football for Kids – Two Receivers, Two Defenders

This [tag]football for kids[/tag] [tag]drill[/tag] will pit defenders against receivers to see who can come out on top.

What you need – Two QB’s side to side, each with two receivers (one slot, one split out), and they are matched against two defensive backs.

How this drill works – The defense will have its coverage and the offense will call its own play.   At the snap of the ball, the receivers will run their patterns, the QB will drop back, make a read and throw – all with the defenders trying to cover them.   If the ball is caught, the play does not end until the receiver is taken down.

The [tag]coach[/tag] will award points to the offense for catches and broken tackles, and to the defense for passes deflected (and not caught), and intercepted passes.

Result – Your receivers and QB’s will get work against defensive backs, and the DB’s, likewise, will get work from the WR’s.
