We Are WarriorsThe Wildcat Clan

The single most important thing I teachmy players is that they are part of a

Warrior Society and on the practice fieldthey learn the lessons of the Warrior

Code.

This practice field will make you cry,make you bleed, and it will bring pain butin turn it will provide the lessons that you

need to not only survive but thrive in theworld we live in.

Football is a Combat Sport

martial arts

noun: any of the traditional forms of Oriental self-defense or combat that utilize physical skill andcoordination without weapons, as karate, aikido,

judo, or kung fu, often practiced as sport.

There is no other sport like football. It is a TEAMCOMBAT SPORT that requires eleven players to

attack the other teams eleven players in acoordinated assault.

You play it with a helmet and pads so you are notinjured because it is a full speed violent game.

Every player on the field is violently hittinganother player or being hit by another player.

Learning how to play this game requires you tolearn specific skills: blocking, tackling, hitting,and avoiding how to be hit while also learningskills like handing off, carrying, catching, andpassing the football.

Football is a martial art.


5/73

A Martial Arts Requires A Warrior

We coach a combat sport!

We teach a martial arts!

We train players to be warriors!

We train them to play through pain, control theiremotions, and focus on the task at hand so that

all eleven players accomplish a single task!


6/73

Warrior Code

Warrior Ideals: teaching kids football, of any age,to believe in themselves and the team they playfor is an important concept.

Because this sport is so violent it requires a levelof courage and commitment not often found inkids nowadays. Every young man at some pointdreams of being a warrior, a knight, a Spartan, a

Trojan, a hero. It is in every young man's DNAand tapping into that can be a very positive toolfor you as a coach. Our coaching staffunderstands this and for me it is reflective in thenature of my coaching and how I approachplayers. Every player will be treated as a youngman on the field. In turn they respect and trustme as a coach and a mentor.

We will be tough, fair, and unyielding in practicebut we will have fun as a team and we will learnhow to be successful as a team of warriors.


7/73

Warrior Code

PhysicalDiscipline

Confident, aggressive, violent, able to overcome pain toachieve our objective as a player and a team. Our physicalconditioning will push our players to the edge so that theyphysical, mentally, and emotionally tough. They willunderstand that this is a team combat sport and they must be

finally tuned football players able to execute their role asquickly and as violently as possible.

MentalDiscipline

Focused on our positive, stance, assignments, and techniqueas well as our role each every play no matter the fieldconditions, physical conditions, emotional conditions, or whatis happening off the field. I want every one of my players tounderstand that if they invest any sort of time in something,

anything then to give 100% of their effort during thosemoments. That means on the field, in the classroom, and athome. Be competitive; strive to be the best at everything youdo no matter what it is. Learning how to compete and win areimportant components to be a successful athlete and person.

Emotional

Discipline

This is probably the toughest part of being a football player. It

is easy to let external issues affect your play and we must geteach of our players to focus on their duties and assignmentsduring every practice so that it becomes a habit that whenthey step on the field everything else fades away for those twohours so that all that matters is being the best football playerpossible. Failure is part of being a football player every playerneeds to learn how to deal with failure in a positive manner sothey can harness it in a meaningful way. Every player needs tolearn how to deal with success as well both as a player and asa team. Each play is a new beginning and they must prove

themselves once again. Each game is a new season and wemust start again to prove our worth and value as players andas a team.

CharacterDiscipline

General Robert H. Barrow said, Success in battle is not afunction of how many show up, but who they are. To developand reinforce character we must set the example as coaches.We must push players to make good choices on the field an offthe field. Follow the rules on the field, in the classroom, insociety, and be good players, students, and sons. Be respectfulto those around them at all times. Strive to be the best


8/73

Honor, Courage, Commitment

Players must understand that to be a football player on this team you must dowhat is right in the face of overwhelming adversity. To understand how to do whatis right they are taught about ethics and our core values during practice using thesituations that come up. These values make up the bedrock of a what I expectfrom my players. During off-season camps, pre-season, and season they are

taught these core values and the plethora of others traits, such as integrity,discipline, teamwork, duty and esprit de corps.

Honor Our players are held to the highest standards, ethically, and morally.Respect for others is essential. Our players are expected to actresponsibly in a manner befitting the title they have earned asfootball players. This is a part of the warrior code. Honor requireseach player to exemplify the ultimate standard in ethical and moral

conduct. Honor is many things; honor requires many things. Youmust expect every player to never lie, never cheat, never steal, butthat is not enough. Much more is required as we must keep thestandard high in a warrior society. Each player must cling to anuncompromising code of personal integrity, accountable for hisactions and holding his teammates accountable for theirs. And,above all, honor mandates that a player never sully the reputation ofhis team or teammates. This is powerful tool for us as a staff as itcreates a foundation for tradition within the team. The ability for the

players to self-police themselves on and off the field; when yourteam can self-police and start to take the reins of leadership from thecoaching staff you know you are on the right track. I have seen eightyear olds step to the front and command respect from their team.

Courage Simply stated, courage is honor in action and more. Courage ismoral strength, the will to heed the inner voice of conscience, thewill to do what is right regardless of the conduct of others. It is

mental discipline, an adherence to a higher standard. Couragemeans willingness to take a stand for what is right in spite of adverseconsequences. This courage, throughout history is what hassustained some of the greatest warriors during the chaos, perils, andhardships of combat. And each day, it enables a warrior to look inthe mirror -- and smile. That is our goal with our young players is forthem to look in the mirror satisfied with what they have learned andwhat they have become so that when they say I play football for"your team" they beam with pride knowing what it means to saythat.


9/73

The Path for Your Team

To make your players stronger!

Physically stronger

Emotionally stronger Mentally stronger

Spiritually stronger

Being a true warrior, or champion, requires anunderstanding and appreciation of the

connectivity between our physical, mental,emotional and spiritual commitment.

We are preparing our players to succeed on thefield and handle the physical, mental, andemotional rigors of this sport.

We are preparing our players for the very samelessons in life as well.

Young men want to be held to a higher standard.

They want to be pushed. They want to beimportant in the eyes of their seniors.


10/73

Your Staff Guidelines For the Players

It is the player's team not the coaches. We are mentors and teachers;the team is theirs they own it we guide them.

Every player will have a position and role on this team. It is our jobto find out what every kid is good at and amplify that strength as apositive for our team. Find that one thing he is good at and nurture it!

Playing time is earned not given. If a player is not showing up topractice, not giving his best effort, is disruptive he loses the right toplay. Being a football player is not a right it is a privilege on ourteam.

We push every kid mentally, emotionally, and physically on thisteam. Every player must be challenged to improve.

Practices must be intense. Don't waste practice time chattering orexplaining. Teach it, show it, rep it and rep it a lot in the allotted timegiven. Correct mistakes on the fly with specific positive instructionbut expect them to get better. No exceptions to this.

When we condition we condition with the mindset to not onlyphysically push them but to mentally and emotionally push them. Wepush them hard so that practices are much more intense then thegames ever will be so that come game time the exercise of playing agame is easy. They must fail on the practice field and learn how todeal with it on the practice field so that they know how to deal with iton the game field. Success is often something players will need tolearn how to deal with has well (respect and honor).

We expect our players to give 100% we must give 100% as well toset the example.

Player welfare/Goal Accomplishment are the priorities of thecoaching staff!


11/73

Safety & Contact

It is every coaches' job to ensure their players are as safe asrealistically possible on the football field at all times!

Proper training in wearing protective equipment. (helmet

fit, shoulder pad fit, lower body pads) Proper training in keeping the head out of contact.

(concussion injury)

Proper training in keeping the head up/eyes up. (spinalinjury)

Proper care and up keep of mouth guards. (concussioninjury/dental/tongue)

Protecting players joints. (keep them bent/dont lock out) Compliance with Safety Rules and Sportsmanship on the

field

Coaches can control amount of force and danger of a drill by:

Making sure you pair up players evenly consideringbiological maturity, experience, athletic ability, size, andaggressiveness.

The closer the distance the safer the drill. The fartherapart the players are the more force they can bothgenerate (acceleration).

If you increase distance use obstacles and start/stopsituations to reduce force.

When doing gang tackling drills and turnover drills use

close proximity. Fast whistle when you need to.

Keep players above the waist. No tackling our playersbelow the waist. Bite the Hip on dummies only and inscrimmages against other teams only.


12/73

Make Practice Fun!

That doesnt mean pandering to every players desire tobe the center of attention.

That doesnt mean you should play fun games that offernothing to the development of your players, team, orschemes you teach.

It means that your practice should be fast paced.

It means that everything you do should have meaningfulvalue to the development of your players as a person,athlete, and football player.

It means the vast majority of your practice should becompetitive and allow your players to be aggressive andviolent in the context of your drills to foster competition

and a desire to succeed and become better players!

Players will adapt to the nature of the practice as long asyou make it up beat, positive, and get the best out ofthem while fostering an atmosphere of sportsmanship andteamwork.

Give positive feedback to all of your players when they dosomething right.

When they do something wrong explain what they didwrong, explain how they need to do it right, rep it again.Be positive positive/negative/positive when you can!


13/73

Develop of Sense of Knowing

The front side of your practices should always bethe same. This allows players to know exactlywhat will occur when they get to practice. It givesthem the ability to focus on becoming betterathletes and football players. It allows them toemotionally and mentally warm up as theyphysically warm up for practice.

Vary the back end of your practice but use drillsand variations of drills that the players alreadyknow.

Push them to the edge at various points in yourpractice mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Once they realize that every practice will betough they will start to adapt and they will startto have fun.

Make the easy seem hard and the hard seemeasy

Use drills that are both competitive andaggressive in nature.


14/73

The Chain of Confidence

Develop Confidence in the coaching staff. (Trustin ability to teach the game and keep them safe)

Develop Confidence in their equipment to protectthem.

Develop Confidence in their teammates and theteam to achieve success on the field.

Develop Confidence in themselves to achieveanything on the field.

The is forms the nucleus of pride and self worthin a football player and the team.


15/73

The Chain of Success

Once you achieve a confident player his desire tocompete will grow. Encourage competition at alltimes within your team.

The use of competitive drills is important tofoster this growth at every practice.

Set them up to succeed and to deal with success

and failure. The practice field is used to developexperience that they can use on the game field.Every practice should bring a positive experiencethat they can learn from.

That doesnt mean they have to succeed it

simply means they have to learn somethingpositive from it. Whether it be success or failure.


16/73

ompe ve p r ree sAggressiveness

Show me a player that wants to succeed and Iwill show you a player that is aggressive.

A player that wants to be successful will attack adrill with all out effort. That is the naturalaggressiveness we are looking for in our players.

Teach a player that his equipment keeps him safe

and the techniques you are teaching him willkeep him safe and he will stop thinking about hissafety and start thinking about succeeding andhe will start competing.

Passive players have a greater chance of getting

hurt.

Aggressive players have less chance of gettinghurt.


17/73

Confidence + Competitiveness + Experience =Aggressiveness

Players need to have fun. It promotes a positiveexperience and that promotes a positive attitude.

Make being competitive and aggressive fun andimportant as player!

Everything you do should have a competitivecomponent built in to it or should progress into a

competitive phase as technical mastery occurs.

Mental + Emotional + Physical Toughness areessential to being a warrior/football player.

Practice Concepts

According to DFAL rules we are limited to 2 hrs. of practice eachsession

That equates to 120 minutes per session

Lose 2 hrs each week by not going 150 minutes Need to tighten up how things are run

Defense will get of the practice time 60 min/practice

Focus on the defense

No water breaks some water supplied, but players areexpected to have water with them.

Water bottles with names and numbers on them

Carry them with them to each drill

Warm-up is in line-leader groups with the related coach

Come out, get warmed up and ready to go

Stretching first, then 20 yd jogs

Wednesday practices are 5-7

This time provides opportunity for tutoring, appointments

Thursday Regular practice, full pads (no hitting)

All kicking teams Only players involved in kicking teams plus scout players

All others are with coaches for blocking, tackling, sumo, etc.

s format is in keeping with scripting the plays that will be run. If the defense is to shut down theponents primary plays they will need to see them. This is one method for running the plays in ananized fashion. Run against the JV first to give the scout offense a chance to learn the play before thagainst the varsity defense. Scenario is run the play twice against the JV defense, run the play twice

ainst the varsity defense, and then the passing offense (QB, WRs, RBs) go against the varsity D witherence passes. JV doesnt get this. Goal is to get 1.5 instances per minute, with a total of 48 instance30 minutes or so. Repeat 3 days, with 7-8 plays per day, so they could see the plays a number ofes. The DC will determine the offensive plays and diagrams.

No lectures, stories. Anything over 55 seconds is too much timetalking

Meetings to teach, watch film with position coaches?

Demonstrate if you have the ability to do so safely

No touch program does not mean you cant be a hands on

coach.

Utilize drills that will show up on film (this is the hard evidence thatwhat we have taught has been learned)

If it wont show up on film, why do the drill?

No time fillers use time wisely to get better every day.

If you come up with what you think is a good drill, communicate

it.

Scout Defense

Scenario: Triple vs. Live D

Scenario: Live Pass Protection Coaches must setup the defensive alignments

in 3-, 4-, 5-, and 6- fronts. Assignments shouldbe base and 3 stunts/blitzes

Draw these up so the D can just look at themand line up and go.

10-min period of scout

Goal is 2 PPM so 20ish plays

Coach on the run Identify problems, note them, and fix them in

INDIVIDUAL, not during this session If you have to coach a player, take him out of

the rotation and then put him back in whenyou are done

We wont stop the team to coach the 1

Local Restaurants

Many local restaurants will sponsor a footballnight. For everyone from your organization thatdines at that restaurant on a particular night(that shows some form of identification with theprogram) the restaurant will donate backbetween 10-20% of the check. Some restaurantsuse this as a way to boost business on "off"nights.

The local Outback Steakhouse made us a greatoffer. They have a dinner at noon before thestore opens and we sell tickets for $20. 100 %profit. The cooks and waitstaff work for tips andOutback donates the food. Sell the tickets andglad-hand for an hour and a half and we madeabout $2500.


53/73

Reverse Raffle

I wasn't real involved with the raffle as I'm still atmy school from last year when this was goingdown, but I'll try to explain it.

Essentially they sold 100 tickets for $75 each.They then started pulling tickets out of a bigtumbler thing. Every 10th ticket got $50 back.

They did this for 95 of the tickets and then the

final 5 tickets were up for a prize of $3000.

The final five then decided if they wanted to splitthe prize or put those five tickets back in anddraw again. They decided to draw again threetimes until only two were left. They decided to

split the prize.

I also forgot there was a steak dinner thateveryone who bought a ticket got two tickets to.So they did the meal and then raffled off thestuff. The only cost on the meal was the steak.

They got the potatoes donated and the desertsand such were made by the moms of our kids.


54/73

Flea Market

Had a fairly successful "flea market" at theschool. Boosters and parents donate their junkand spend a morning selling it for the team.decent money and again no cost.

This works well when we did it at the local JC.Rent 2 spaces ($60) and get 4-6 families tocontribute their stuff. Lay it out, price it, and sell

it. Anything left at the end of the day went to thecharity groups (Goodwill, churches). Families gotrid of stuff, team made money, and charitygroups got stuff. With the right frame of mindthese are a lot of fun.


55/73

Apparel (Nike)

We have a guy that orders through Nike that

gives us 40% off of all Nike apparel and shoes. We give all of our kids an order sheet with

shoes, gloves and dri-fit apparel with a 30%discount. So we make 10% off of every order.

We also do this with our middle school andyounger kids. Usually makes a lot of money

each year and doesn't take much effort. Let me know, and I can give you his name

and number. It's good for coaching apparel,too.

There are companies on the internet now that

will sell a very large selection of gear in theschool colors and logos.

http://www.prepsportswear.com is one companythat does this. They will kick back 15% of thesales and there are over 400 products available.

All orders are made-to-order and take a few daysto deliver. They are linked to the team/schoolwebsite.


56/73

Game/Highlight DVDs

The team is usually recording the games andproduces a highlight DVD each year. With a DVDduplicator (~$400) 20 copies of each DVD can beproduced very quickly and easily. Print them witha nice cover art (color inkjet printer ~$125, notlabels) and sell them for $5 each. The DVDs costless than $1 to produce and the parents andplayers usually like the opportunity to purchasethe DVDs. You can do pre-orders to reduce the

number of DVDs produced.


57/73

Donation Club

Another thing people like is exclusivity. Form a giving club with different levels andperks. List all the club members in the game program. For Example:

$500 Champion's Circle Wind Jacket

Game Hat

Coffee With the Coach (weekly coffee; bull session)

Parking Privileges (VIP)

Best Seats

Private Gameday Tailgate Party (6)

Banquet Table (If you have a sports Banquet)

$350 Victory Circle Game Hat

Coffee With the Coach

Parking Privileges (Reserved)

Better Seats


Banquet Tickets (4)

$250 Coach's Circle Game Hat



Banquet Tickets (2)

$100 Pride Game Hat


Put a flyer or brochure together and let the players sell the heck out of it and getinvolved yourself by getting a few well known alumns and supporters behind the effort.Your only true costs are Windjackets, hats and some food which I'm sure someonewould be happy to donate or sale at a discounted rate in exchange for some publicity.

Remember everything has a cost, even raising money.


58/73

Discount Cards

This involves working with local merchants tooffer discounts. The discounts are printed on theback of a plastics credit card. Front has team logoand designs. Players sell the cards for $10 andthe team keeps $5 or some other percentage.

Teams can do it themselves or contract withother companies to do it.

We used to do Varsity Gold, but now we go withan outfit named Players Choice. Same idea, butwe get a bigger piece of the $$$$.

Did my own card. Had them printed up by localcompany for $0.35 a card and did all the contract

legwork ourselves.


59/73

Segmentation

Always look for ways to increase participation atthe games

Divide the audience into segments and providewhat that segment would like

Youth

DVHS Students

Adults Young Adults/Former Students

Adults/Parents

Older Adults/Grandparents

Bottom line is to increase the number of peopleattending the games

61/73

Clinic Notes

Dont be concerned with what we dont have. Concentrate onwhat we have and figure a way to make that work. No If weonly had xxx, that does nothing to support the team.

The HC must have a plan for what needs to be done, but cantmicro-manage the coaches under him. Or the players.

Problems just dont go away. They have to be worked away orthe situation has to be changed. Problems will remain foreverunless something is changed by the coach.

If we are going to do something on Friday, we have to do it onM-T-W-Th. We cant ask the players/coaches/staff to dosomething in the game that they havent seen before thegame.

They split the QBs so 2/4 are working with the FBs and backson mesh/pitch, and 2/4 are working on passes with the WRs.

Then they switch after x minutes.

Want speed, speed, speed. Anything they can do to get morespeed to the outside.

Always trying to minimize. Dont need 10 screens, just go with3. That is carried though all things, planning, practices,

defense, etc. Dont throw anything away (plays, formations,combinations, etc.). Take it off the board (might not haveworked kind of thing) but pack it away to be used again.

Their OL are in sprint stance, heads down, weight on hands.Tougher to pass block (they run mostly play action anyway) butthey want the OL attacking the defense.


62/73

Clinic Notes

Thursday pre-game should be pre-game, coaches on headsets,teams on the field/sideline, calling plays, the whole thing. Itsnot just pre-game for the players. The coaches must know their

role in game time (what is this coach watching and reporting?)as well as practice.

Team time - Coaches are off the field (well, not behind thesafetys, they are off to the side so they can see). Players areon the sidelines, trying to replicate game situations. Everyonecoaches on the run, nobody stands and talks to the players.Coaches are not standing talking with each other. Everyone has

a task and that is all they focus on.

Play 3-Flies-Up with the receivers. Weakness is that they dontplay games like that so they dont know how to positionthemselves and jump and come down with the ball. Simple todo and big upside.

Gerald Brence used to hold Wednesday meetings for allcoaches at all levels. These were not mandatory. 530-555 wasteam issues. 605-630 was Xs and Os, 640-705 was Xs andOs. Anyone could talk, any topic was discussed. Made programdecisions in those meetings, had a direct impact on theprogram. Not all coaches came but decisions were made there.These were run to the minute so there was no messing around.Said that there shouldnt be any meetings that didnt have an

agenda and be run like a business meeting.


63/73

Skills and Drills

Each play type (1-step, pitch, reverse for lead) all require drills toinstall and maintain the muscle memory and rhythm.

Each coach should write a manual for the area he is responsiblefor. Break everything down, stance, 1st step, inside release,every aspect of the position. Put everything together, if only forhimself. Make the coach well and truly understand the positionhe is trying to teach. Forces organization.

Each coach should make a drill and position DVD. This willforce them to understand their position, how it fits into thescheme, and prepare drills to get the skills embedded in the

players. They cant do their position videos unless thescheme is set and understood by all as well.

Had a drill plan for each practice. Listed all of the drills that hewould use with each position. Then put them down in a list andspread the drills over the available practice drills. That way heensured that he was teaching what he needed and that he had aschedule for each practice day.

Every presentation talked about maximizing the reps, alwaysgetting more reps. More reps means that the skill is more deeplyingrained. But, the skill/technique must be performed 100%correct or what is being taught is wrong. Like teaching that2x2=5, the students know the right process but the techniqueand outcome are wrong. More reps of the wrong thing does nogood. To do max reps the players must learn it correctly. That

means that there must be time early to do the skill training. Thatmeans that the coach must think about what has to be taught,how to teach it, and then plan it.

You are either coaching it or allowing it. Refers to what we seeon the video. Says that what the players do on the game video iseither what the coach has taught him or is what the coach isallowing. Big proponent of the coaches taking responsibility for

what their players are doing on the field.
