Coach,

As a position coach I look to you to make sure your group are learning and perfecting the skill needed to play this given position. You are a very important part of the success of the Panther Program as well as the success of the kids you teach at this position as they pass through our program on to the next level of football.

Our Every Day Drills (EDD’s) are the foundation of what the head coaches and coordinators rely on you to teach, without good foundation for this given position some of our kids will have some success on game day because they are faster or stronger than the other team or the other team also overlooks the basic skills and jump straight to the playbook. Overall more of our kids will fail on game if they don’t have that speed or size to overcome the lack of technique.

Please take the first 10 to 20 minutes of your station time to go over these skills and make sure the kids understand them and realize that these are the keys to them becoming better players and a better team. As you watch the game or game tape you will see that most plays that get stuffed can be track back to one or more of these basic skills not being used.

Thanks for your hard work…
