I’ve gotten a whole bunch of requests for football training drills over the past few days. Here’s an idea that one of my readers sent to me. I’m including it here for you to try with your team.
From Nick…
My favorite football drill is the mirror drill. I usually use this as a non-contact offensive and defensive line drill (but can be used with WR’s and DB’s).
You set up 2 cones about eight yards apart and in between these cones represents a line that divides the drill into offensive and defensive sides. On one side you put an OL and other side put a DL. The object of this drill is to stay between the cones and not cross the line. You go on the football coach’s command and stop on the coach’s command. The offensive lineman has to practice moving his feet, getting position, recovering etc, while the DL has to work to get the OL’s body turned, beat him to the gap, etc.
Great workout without heavy contact. It works all the fundamentals.
