Do you want to pass on your love for the sport to the next generation? If the answer is yes, then coaching might be the perfect fit for you!\u00a0Coaching in the Regina Youth Flag Football League is exciting, fulfilling, and gives you an opportunity to teach skills to a new generation of players. \u00a0Whether you\u2019ve played at a high level or never at all, we believe that anyone can be a successful coach if they are dedicated and passionate about becoming a good coach!! Our leagues would not be the same without the amazing volunteers that choose to coach year after year. We can\u2019t thank you enough! You\u2019ll find an assortment of playbooks, drills, rules, and tips below to help you be the best coach you can be!<\/p>\n<p>We value our coaches above all else, because they are the ones that decide what kind of experience the athletes will have playing the game. For us, we determine our success by how many of our players return the next season. The more players we have return shows us they\u00a0had a great time the previous year and it\u2019s because of YOU, our coaches, who make that experience happen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\"

Before every practice &amp; game set aside 20 minutes for flag pulling drills. The drill goes as follows\u2026<br \/>\na. Form a single line.<br \/>\nb. The player (lets call him Player A) in the front of the line puts his left hand behind his back, rendering it useless.<br \/>\nc. One by one, instruct the remaining players to jog past Player A\u2019s right side with their hands risen.<br \/>\nd. Player A must focus on pulling each player\u2019s flag as they jog by.<br \/>\ne. Upon the final flag being drawn from the right side, have Player A turn around, switch hands, and pull the flags off the remaining players as they jog by his left side. This drill, albeit somewhat basic, greatly increases hand-eye coordination and overall flag pulling ability because of its repetitive nature.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shotgun Formation<\/strong>: As a general rule, always have the QB step back a minimum of 5 yards (IMPORTANT: Never under center). Practice snaps at this length during practices and before games. This gives your QB ample time to read the defense and use better judgment when making throws. It may take a few weeks to master the longer snap, but roughly by week five you\u2019ll have a much improved and dangerous team.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ZONE Defense<\/strong>: Take your man-to-man defensive scheme and throw it in the trash. Zone defense is effective not only because it spreads the field, but it also gives your defense four options to choose from on any given down\u2026<br \/>\na. Cover 1. (One safety deep, remaining defenders stay close to the ball. Used mainly on first down and short yardage situations when you think the offense is running a quick pass or running the ball).<br \/>\nb. Cover 2. (Two safeties deep. A solid defense to call when the offense needs 10-15 yards for a first down).<br \/>\nc. Cover 3. (Three safeties deep. Used when you believe the offense is throwing long).<br \/>\nd. Cover 4. (Four safeties across the goal line. Used mainly in fourth and long or \u201cHail Mary\u201d situations).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Never Show Your Coverage<\/strong>: Constantly changing your defensive coverage schemes can confuse the opposing quarterback and keep him guessing. Disguise your coverage before the snap by having all defenders form a single even line with your rusher (who is seven yards from the ball). At the snap of the ball, the players move to the chosen formation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-1ck1xb-ba015b44b1c1360197ba2dcb2fd0ed85\">\n.flex_column.av-1ck1xb-ba015b44b1c1360197ba2dcb2fd0ed85{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-1ck1xb-ba015b44b1c1360197ba2dcb2fd0ed85 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  column-top-margin'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-19wi3z-97016ebe4063c438e171cc91292555b8 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>7 Yard Cushion<\/strong>: The most successful teams understand that the name of the game is flag pulling. Your quickness as a defender means nothing if you play too tight and get beat on a pump-and-go. Play it safe and line up at least seven yards off the ball. Most leagues start at the 5-yard line, and need to get to midfield for a first down. That\u2019s 18 yards. Put the odds in your favor and sacrifice a five yard pass here or there as long as you\u2019re able to pull the flag and not get beat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Rusher<\/strong>: The most important part of a zone defense. A zone tends to break down within four seconds, so if the QB has more than four seconds to read a defense, odds are you\u2019ll get burnt. The rusher must charge the QB in a controlled manner, never leave his feet, and never go for a batted ball. His sole purpose is to make the QB read and throw within that four second window, and try not to let him scramble. (TIP: Remember, always go the hips. Also, never rush straight ahead, try to come at the QB from a 45 degree angle and make him scramble toward his weak side.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Improvements<\/strong>: Don\u2019t expect miracles overnight, there will most likely be at least a couple weeks grace period until most of these skills are utilized to their highest potential. The younger the kids are, the more difficult it will be for them to process information and employ them in game situations. Be patient and stick to the basics.<br \/>\nKeep Plays Simple: There is no need to have difficult plays. Start off with only four plays. Try to add one new play per week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite Play<\/strong>: Great plays happen because of great execution. For example, your outside receiver does a 5 yard In, and your inside receiver does a 4 yard Out (the Cross). After this play is successful three times, attempt the \u201cScissor play.\u201d This means the outside receiver does a 10 yard Post, and the inside receiver does an Out and Up. This play is money if it\u2019s set up correctly, and you sell it by making the defense believe you\u2019re running the Cross pattern again.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Love<\/strong>: This isn\u2019t the NFL; the kids need love and attention. Give them love and they will perform.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_4'  class='avia-section av-15lo1b-c25d4c21f299a9dff0e3090824833275 main_color avia-section-default avia-shadow  avia-builder-el-24  el_after_av_section  avia-builder-el-last  avia-bg-style-scroll av-minimum-height av-minimum-height-custom av-height-custom  container_wrap sidebar_right'   data-av_minimum_height_px='450'><div class='container av-section-cont-open' style='height:450px'><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-183'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-3ey2f-9a35c6b2e40eddb7b1c6d258eadbeb19\">\n.flex_column.av-3ey2f-9a35c6b2e40eddb7b1c6d258eadbeb19{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-3ey2f-9a35c6b2e40eddb7b1c6d258eadbeb19 av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-25  el_before_av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-rq5s7-63dc9735d3817fc2e1bf4e1d539eb2ad\">\n.flex_column.av-rq5s7-63dc9735d3817fc2e1bf4e1d539eb2ad{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-rq5s7-63dc9735d3817fc2e1bf4e1d539eb2ad av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-26  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-6vzlz-57ced96a93de140afbcda75b9e1c4c53\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-6vzlz-57ced96a93de140afbcda75b9e1c4c53{\npadding-bottom:20px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-6vzlz-57ced96a93de140afbcda75b9e1c4c53 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-6vzlz-57ced96a93de140afbcda75b9e1c4c53 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-6vzlz-57ced96a93de140afbcda75b9e1c4c53 av-special-heading-h1 blockquote modern-quote modern-centered  avia-builder-el-27  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '><h1 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Thanks to Our Amazing Sponsors!<\/h1><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-fx5mn-a0748dbdc801969d392bfcb685e166ce\">\n.flex_column.av-fx5mn-a0748dbdc801969d392bfcb685e166ce{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-fx5mn-a0748dbdc801969d392bfcb685e166ce av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-28  el_after_av_three_fifth  el_before_av_codeblock  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_4'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap sidebar_right'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-small alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-183'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-183","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/183","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183"}],"version-history":[{"count":47,"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/183\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1382,"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/183\/revisions\/1382"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reginayouthflagfootball.com\/fall\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
