Football Receiver Drills

Take a look at this submission from Greg.   A great example of a[tag]football receiver drills[/tag] that works great with your youth teams.

From Greg,
We call this [tag]football[/tag] [tag]drill[/tag], the fumble drill.

We form the boys into 2 single file lines with a coach in the middle.
The [tag]coach[/tag] [tag]throw[/tag]s the football down, usually on the end so it takes off. The first two run after it. The one who comes up with the ball is the winner and gets back into line.
The one who didn’t come up with the ball goes off to the side and starts clapping.
It keeps going round after round until you get a winner.
The kids really love it and it creates great competition, they ask for it at every [tag]practice[/tag]. We do this as the last part of our practice, it gets them [tag]running[/tag] and also instills in their memory about recovery fumbles.

This helped us out several times last year.
