bring 2-3 small 500 boards if you have them. They are easier to get to amongst the 3 and not overwhelming. Ask them what do they know about football....them perhaps ask them what they know about EF? Printout a couple pics of games , coaches..print right from the MFCA site. remember and don take it personal....kids attention span is short so get them to the board ASAP. See who may have had pop warner experience...ask position played..and then set up a play based on their position and tell them to either offensively or defensively counter your play. do this with as many as possible. Then get them to the boards. What I do is make 2 man teams a jr coach on O and 1 on D(same team...that way you have 4 jr coaches on 1 board working together.....that should get you out the gate......the pics of plays from the MFCA site will establish a play blueprint for the coaches w/o knowledge of the game. You gonna see some strange plays and may wanna step in but do it with minimal intrusion for they will get it in time. Send play packets as often as you can with pics from EF games for them to study and try to bring acceptional athletes so that you can keep them engaged. I am getting ready for my jr coaches back to school next week and our Teen Center...I use the same rule.. If you need anything Coach reachout.
