Football Practice Plans and Drills – RATED Practice

I came up with this scheme while driving on the freeway yesterday. It relates to football practice plans and drills and includes some great tips you can begin using with your team right away.

In pre-season I have a “rated” practice where everyone gets to score points for individual football plays and performance during that practice–great catches, runs, tackles, blocks, sprints, agility drills, intense desire, outstanding effort and a few other nebulous things that allow the coaches to “mark down” points at will.

Once you reach 5 points your football practice is over and you root for your buddies. Funny how every year it works out that everyone reaches 5 points within a few minutes of each other!!!

Makes for a spirited practice and when they’re are done 15 minutes earlier than usual they think they won the Superbowl!!
