Tips For Youth Football Training

By Nelda Powers


Among all of the team sports in the entire world. The sport known as football is actually known to be one of the roughest and the toughest in the field. It is for this reason that each of the players have to really strong and would have to know how to fend for themselves when on the field. Of course it is the duty of the coach to be able to train the players to become strong by making them undergo some youth football training drills.

One of the first drills that one would be doing would be the jump squat. In this sport, leg power is extremely important because one will need to be jumping really high and running really fast. Sometimes he will be bursting into a sprint when he sees the opponent coming over to tackle him.

To start the jump squat exercise, one has to first get down on a squatting position and start squatting down. From that position, he then has to jump as high as he can and bend his legs in the air. Just repeat this exercise a couple of times and the legs will be having a real workout.

The recovery drill is yet another really good drill that a lot of top players do. Basically, this drill is needed for those who would need to be able to gain a sense of balance on the field. Since this drill would involve getting down on the ground and switching hands that will hold the ball, then this training will tackle the muscle memory of the player.

To do this, one must first put a cone in front of the player followed by another one five yards from the first one and a last one ten yards from the first one. Now the catch here would be to simply run around the cone and touch the ground beside each of the cones there. While running around, make sure to switch the ball from the right hand to the left and from the left to the right after running each cone.

Then there would be the over speed drill which would increase the running speed of the player. Basically, the coach would have to find a rather steep hill wherein the players can run down fast. The catch here is that the players have to run down without falling on the ground.

Of course everyone knows about the dummy tackling drill. Known to be one of the most common, it is a drill wherein one would increase his overall body strength. In a nutshell, the coach has to put a few dummies on the field and let each player push his own respective dummy to a far end.

So as one can see, the youth football training drills are not easy and would require a lot of time and effort before one would perfect them. However, after doing these drills, one will definitely expect his body to get stronger. That way, he will be ready to face his opponents when he goes out with his other teammates to the field.
