User Reviews

Im a 3rd year youth football coach, first year head coach, i found no useful drills that i hadn't heard of in this book. There were some decent drills that i had heard of though, so maybe it would be helpful to first year coach. -- Not a very helpful book

Youth Football Skills & Drills: A New Coach's Guide

A great beginner's guide to youth football. It is good for coaching the first couple years of tackle football. To be honest, if you have time, internet research can get you good guidance too in coaching youth football. But if you don't have the time nor patience to research the internet, this book is a quick, nicely condensed way to get the info. -- Youth Football Skills and Drill

I am not a football coach but rather a parent who bought this book to get some tips for teaching the fundamentals to my 8 year old who is just getting into football. However, I have coached baseball and soccer for many years and am familiar with coaching books and dvds.

I think this book does a very solid job of laying out many key responsibilites and techniques of each position. The drills look applicable to real game situations which is important. Because it does cover all of the positions and special teams in one book, it is not extremely deep in each position, but that is expected. I would definately recommend this for new coaches or parents/players wanting to learn the keys to each position. -- Good Book for new coaches and/or parents

Even though I've coached for a couple of years, this book had great ideas for new drills and twists on old drills. -- Great book for more drill ideas

If you have never taught / coached youth football before this is a step by step guide to running an efficient and productive practice session. Packed with specific drills for all the positions. Teaching / Coaching youth football is nothing like having been a player! I played peewee all the way through college and coaching is a totally different animal! -- First time Coaches bible
