How to Keep Players Coming Back in Youth Football

Player Retention Tips in Youth Football

Part of the «mission» when you are coaching youth football should be to retain players. While youth football may not be the thing for some kids, for others it just takes a litle time to grow on them. At the end of every season I have kids on my team who have probably decided they wouldn’t come back to play another season. But somewhere along the way they change their minds to come back and have a great season that changes their opinion of the game forever. While I enjoy seeing my teams play well, execute our football plays perfectly and win Championships, I get a greater amount of satisfaction from getting my players to finish the season and come back to play another year of youth football.

There are a number of things I like to do in the 60 days after the season is over to help change some of those fence sitters minds:

The Season DVD is always a big hit. I do one that includes funny captions, all our accomplishments and we set it to Christian music. You have no idea how often those DVDs are watched by your kids and their families, several of my parents say their kids basically «wore out» the DVD from playing it so often. Heck watching it that much may even help the kids run their football plays out better. These DVDs keep the game fresh in the kids minds and sets you apart from other youth football teams that he could go play for. It may also set you apart from another sport like soccer or the dreaded fall baseball.

I have always sent these DVDs to the kids in December as a Christmas gift along with a letter. In this generic one-size-fits-all letter, I spell out how much I appreciated the season, the parents and the kids. I also include a personal message about what Christmas means to me and my family. Dave Dimmond, a friend of mine from Florida has been sending personalized letters to his kids for quite some time. He talks about how much he appreciated the players contributions to the team and talks about very specific events and attributes for each individual player. While this may seem very time consuming, Dave reports that these letters are treasured by his kids and some of the kids even frame them. This is something I will be doing for each of my players this year and for the foreseeable future.

Most youth football players need just a little bit of public encouragement to get them enthused about the game, that includes your star players. You never know which kid may be feeling a bit inadequate about his efforts. We all have kids that aren’t starters that we know will develop into good players in the coming year or two. Unfortunately some of these kids don’t understand that with a year under their belts, they will be next years «star». Some of these kids lose interest and drop out of football altogether without the proper encouragement. If we believe youth football teaches life lessons, our goal as coaches should be to retain all the kids no matter their ability. I want to retain the stars, future stars and never will be stars as well. Some uninformed people think it’s a mutually exclusive deal, bit it’s simply not true, you can play kids, retain kids and win too, even in the most competitive of youth football leagues. I’ve done it and so have many others.

Take the time to do things like this and your retention numbers will increase. Guys like Dave Dimmond are the guys kids love playing for, he’s the guy getting mobbed at the gas station by his present and former players. He tells me he gets e-mails that often start out something like this:

Coach Dimmond,

My name is John Smith, a friend of mine, Mike Jones has been raving about your youth football team for the last year. He brags about how much fun his boy Jimmy has playing for you as well as how your team went 11-0 last season scoring all those points with that offense John brags about all the time. How do I get my son signed up for your team ? Do you have any spots left?

I also like to have the kids take the team trophy home for a week. We then have them bring the trophy to school and pass it along to a teammate who keeps it for a week and then passes it along to the next player on the list. This keeps your teams name fresh at school and in the minds of impressionable young kids while giving your players something they can show off for their family and friends.

If you are coaching youth football and your teams are consistently competitive, you will get e-mails like that too, we all do. Encourage your players and get creative with keeping football fresh in their minds and not only will you get better retention numbers but you won’t be hurting for new players either.

Torn ACL – One of the Most Common Football Injuries

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) can be one of the most devastating injuries a football player can face. Often this type of injury can put a player out of the game for an entire season and in the worst case, end the player’s career. No matter how gifted a football player is, a torn ACL can drastically affect his ability to play the sport as coordination and mobility can both be drastically impaired. Players like Willis McGahee, Dante Culpepper, and Donovan McNabb have all had their careers impacted by torn ACL injuries.

Wear a knee brace to prevent or heal a torn ACL during football games and practices

Healing a torn ACL can be difficult and, in cases when a patient wants to return to a sport, a brace or support of some kind will be necessary. As this is the most common football injury, there are braces that are designed with the sports player in mind. Not only are these knee braces designed to take the pressure off the ACL area, but also created to be strong and durable.

The DonJoy Armor Knee Brace with FourcePoint Hinge is considered by many to be the finest off-the-shelf knee brace available. Off-the-shelf means that no prescription is needed to purchase an Armor Knee Brace. The patient does not have to wait until a brace can be created for them as this brace is available immediately. The brace comes in seven sizes and it can be adjusted to fit comfortably.

There are many other advantages to the Armor knee brace including the fact that the sturdy frame allows the wearer to mold the brace to the leg. The brace is held in place by an anti-migration Supra Condyle pad that does not catch or pinch the calf. Because it is built with sports in mind it can even survive a football game and protect the knee from blunt blows with its own impact guard. There is also a guard’s hinge cover to protect the material of pants and uniforms. The hinge and guards work to build resistance which can keep the knee from either over extending or being thrown to the side. This resistance also shortens the time spent towards a full extension of the knee giving the wearer a more natural gait as they walk or run. This natural movement protects the wearer while he or she is engaged in extreme activities.

The Armor Fource Point Protective Knee Brace protects so well that many college and professional football teams are requesting that players who have weakened knees or previous ACL injuries wear this brace whether or not they are having problem with the joint prior to the game. The brace is not cumbersome and can prevent further injury to the knee safely and without sacrificing mobility.

This brace is not made only for football and anyone with ACL knee issues who is engaging in sports or other activities where the knee could be compromised could benefit from this support.

Is the "Prima Donna" Attitude Ruining Professional Football?

More and more in professional football we see bizarre touchdown celebrations, strutting and preening after a big play of some sort, and now Chad Johnson has legally changed his last name to his number. What is going on in football today?

The «it’s all about me» attitude that seems to be showing up more and more in our society today, is running rampant through the National Football League. And while some people say it’s just the stars expressing themselves, I personally don’t like it and think that it has the potential to ruin the sport.

How you say? Well, the problem at times bleeds over into the locker room and starts to mess with team chemistry. Look at Terrell Owens for example. Everywhere he goes, eventually he is at odds with someone. And, while a tremendously talented wide receiver, TO starts his antics usually when he is not getting the football as much as he thinks he should.

In two recent games, the football was knocked loose as a player was about to enter the end zone and started his celebration early. These guys were so focused on getting the crowd to focus on them that they screwed up the play itself.

Now for a «quite the opposite» view, take a look at the New England Patriots. Arguably the most successful NFL franchise in recent times. And they focus on finding and keeping players who are team oriented and are willing to fit into their «system». And that system works. Hence three Super Bowl championships in this decade.

So what’s the right way? Well, I don’t think that you can say that there is a right way or a wrong way. But the question for the NFL is which way do the ticket holders prefer? I don’t have the answer to that, but I do know that most NFL fans that I talk to are tired of the antics and prefer their champions to be low key and full of character and integrity.

Now in all of this, there is a glimmer of hope. I read recently that more and more of the younger players coming into the league are not playing the «prima donna» game and are just focused on improving their skills and helping their team win.

I hope that this is the real trend. I’d like for my grandkids to watch these football players and see character, not just characters. If they choose to play the game at any level, I want the players that they try to be like to be someone that they can look up to.

Maybe I’m naïve, but I love the game of football and I don’t want to see it ruined by a few.

In-Season Strength Training for Football

Over the course of a football season, players will experience a decline in strength and power without continued strength training. This obviously will affect performance on the field so continuation of the strength program throughout the season is crucial for success.

Ten years ago, in-season weight lifting programs were mostly non-existent at the high school level. Strength training at the college level was done only one to two times a week, and usually after practice. Traditional programs emphasized higher reps with less weight because the players were already exhausted from practice by the time they hit the weight room. With what we know now about periodization and hitting your peak prior to the start of the season, why go back to light weight and high reps?

Many high school and college football programs are now using a system that keeps the weight and intensity level high, and the reps low to maintain strength and power throughout the season. High intensity, lower volume workouts are the best way to maintain what the athletes worked so hard for over the summer. Many schools have added strength training classes during the school day, or athletes have access to the weight room prior to school allowing for training without practice fatigue.

Here is a sample program:

Day 1: (3×4)

Squats

Explosive deadlift with a shrug

Military Press

Day 2: (3×4)

Power Clean

Bench Press

Glute/Ham or RDL (3×8)

Day 3: (3×8)

Power Squat

Power Bench

Core work

This is what a typical in-season program would look like with lower volume because time is limited, but with high intensity for optimum strength and power. If your schedule will allow for a third day of training, use lighter weights but perform the exercises explosively. Note also that this schedule includes mostly compound movements to work multiple muscle groups in a minimal amount of time.

Be sure to alter the program for a week or two during the season to prevent plateaus, and to make the program more exciting for your athletes. For example, weeks three and six use plyometric training or explosive medicine ball drills in place of weight training. Combination lifts are another excellent option. Examples would include a front squat into an overhead press, hang clean into a front squat, and a dumbbell deadlift into a bent row. Be creative during these weeks because any change in the stimulus to the muscles will help prevent plateaus and complacency.

During the season, safety in the weight room also needs to be stressed with the athletes. When lifting with heavier weights and low reps, a spotter is required. Athletes also need to understand the importance of hitting the proper number of repetitions to maintain their strength levels. Using too much weight, relying on the spotter to complete the reps, and using poor technique could all lead to injury. Nor will it produce the desired results.

With more time allotted to strength training during the school day, be sure to take advantage of these advanced training techniques to keep your strength and power levels up throughout the season. You’ll see a difference in your performance especially at the end of the season.

Indian Football League – Who Will Think Big?

Life after cricket:

Which is the most popular sport in India? OK, that’s a no-brainer. Now will you tell me which one will be the most popular sport in this country after another 5 years? Is it a bit difficult? That’s a no-brainer too for Zee-Essel group’s chairman Subhash Chandra as he is busy signing international players with million dollar contracts believing the passion for this game in the country will help his new cricket league to be a great success.

Let’s leave cricket for a while. Now if you plan for Rs. 100 crore project for a sport like the Zee chairman did, which one will you bet? Shakrukh Khan as a hockey coach in his latest hit film, Chak De India and Indian hockey team’s recent Asia cup victory, would have inspired many to name our national sport, hockey as the first choice. But is the interest in the sport growing in the country? ESPN-Star in association with Indian Hockey Federation created a professional league, Premier Hockey League (PHL) in 2005 with lot of innovations to draw the younger generation into the game. However this had not increased the fan following for the game significantly.

Football – Growing interest:

There is one sport that is steadily growing in India; despite the national team’s absence in major global tournaments is Football. Many urban kids are keenly following the action in English Premier League and other major league soccer tournaments in Europe. Also there is very good corporate support for our National Football League. Mallya owns the most popular Kolkatta club, KingFisher East Bengal, Mahindra Group sponsors another top club Mahindra United and Zee Television sponsored the Goa based club, Churchil Brothers few years back.

Team India – Standings:

India’s current FIFA ranking is 151. However a decade back they had their best rank of 94. So as the interest for the soccer grows in the country, it is sad to note that the team’s performance has been deteriorated over the years. What’s heartening now is the team’s recent victory against Syria to clinch the Nehru cup for the first time in history. Hope they will continue to perform well in their world cup qualifier against Lebanon next month.

National Football League – what next?

Well, it is true that Football has a great fan following now, but the challenge is to improve the standard of game in the country. Kids who can very well tell each and every player and their positions in teams like Manchester United or Chelsea can’t even name four or five players in the Indian National Football team. And not many are aware of our own National Football League (NFL) championship.

Also foreign players playing in our clubs are not quite popular in the international arena. Employing ICL’s strategy of including renowned retired professionals will work wonders for Football, but none of the clubs have the budget to do it. At least they could plan for some guest appearances or some exhibition matches involving international stars to create more interest in the National Football League.

Who will think big?

Now that Mallya who sponsors two major soccer clubs is busy with his Formula-one plans after the Spyker deal and Zee Sport’s Subhash Chandra who had a 10 year contract with All India Football Federation to telecast the domestic tournaments, is busy with ICL’s inaugural Twenty20 tournament, will someone think big to take the game in the country to the next level?

I’m not dreaming of Team India competing equally with Italy or France, but at least will they emerge as a top team in Asia from their current Asian rankings of 26?

Increase Your Athletic Potential As a Football Player – Build Strength, Power, Speed, and Agility

Football has specific demands that need to be addressed when training. As you are working to become a better player focus on training the following areas.

* Explosive acceleration and fast sprinting speed.

* Muscular endurance and strength in the lower body.

* Muscular balance and high levels of neuromuscular coordination.

* Body awareness and agility, the ability to know where your body is, and be able to move it.

* Good flexibility to avoid injury, football players are prone to poor hamstring flexibility.

* Correct balance between your quadriceps and hamstrings, as well as strength imbalances between your left and right leg.

Set Your Goals:

*****Get better- Work harder

*****Standout from the rest in all competition

*****Become the best you can through effective training

*****Raise your personal bar of excellence with each routine

*****Leave nothing on the field- give everything you have.

Follow a football training conditioning program. There are four components necessary to prepare for football season:

Strength, Power, Speed, and Agility.

Fundamentals, speed, strength, agility, power, and endurance are what coaches are looking for in their high school football players. If you can build these areas to their maximum potential then you will be noticed by coaches and recruiters.Use the football drills to improve your ability and talent. Then learn to incorporate the benefit of the drills into your game. Develop the ability to showcase your talents and skills on demand.

Strength training is important to prevent injury and to improve your athletic performance. It is strength training that will make you a stand out player… continuous, effective, sport-specific training. If you have the desire to play at the next level, know that it will require hard work , determination, and a great strength training program.

Power, on the other hand, may be viewed as quickness in running or jumping. Power is displayed in the speed of your motion.

When training to increase your power focus on the speed of the lift as well as the amount of weight that you lift. Now, this may seem contradictory to those of you who were always taught to lift weights slowly. However, the important difference with power training is that you lift explosively but WITH control. Controlling the weight is essential to proper power development.

The theory is that moving a heavy weight very fast requires more power than moving that same weight slowly. If you are looking to develop serious power and improve your athleticism there are many power routines that you can incorporate into your workout. Understand that these routines are different from training for muscle mass or bodybuilding.

Speed training is equally important for football players. The secret to speed training is to apply power to good running mechanics. Knowing the proper sprinting technique is crucial.

Maximum velocity isn’t achieved until 30-35 meters into your run. So for a sport like football where you are more interested in shorter sprints, maximum speed may not be the number one goal of your speed training.

Acceleration becomes the desired outcome of your training. However, training to improve maximum speed also will improve your acceleration, power, coordination, and dynamic flexibility.

Agility is the ability to change direction quickly, as well as accelerate and decelerate at a moments notice. Football is an examples of an «open-skill» sport. This means there is ever changing movement required from the athlete.

When one player is covering another the critical factor becomes which player can move faster into a superior position. The competitive edge goes to the player with the most agility.

Think of agility as applying speed, accelerating, decelerating, maintaining balance, maximizing power and changing direction while your surrounding environment continues to change.

You can improve your agility through drills. However drills will only be effective if you have a foundation of strength, power, and speed already in place.

Football – The Dallas Cowboys

Perhaps no other football team in the NFL is as popular as the Dallas Cowboys. Nicknamed years ago «Americas Team», people either love them or hate them. But what can’t be argued is their success. In the 45 years of their existence, the Dallas Cowboys have been the won more football games than any other team in all of football. The Cowboys are also well known for having the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders.

The Dallas Cowboys came into the NFL on January 28, 1960. They make their home in Irving, TX (Dallas suburb) and play their games in Texas Stadium. This stadium, built in 1971, is well known amongst football fans due to the unique hole in the roof above the football field.

Over the years the Cowboys have played in 8 or the 40 Super Bowls, winning 5 of them. Only San Francisco can make that claim. They have made the playoffs 27 times and won 18 division titles.

Jerry Jones is currently the team owner and president. The Dallas Cowboys are coached by Bill Parcells. When the team first came into the league they were coached by Tom Landry. He remained the coach of the Cowboys from 1960 up until 1988. He is arguably one of the greatest head coaches the NFL has ever had.

The Dallas Cowboys have had more than their share of football players go into the Hall of Fame. Some of these include:

o Tom Landry

o Tony Dorsett

o Bob Lily

o Mel Renfro

o Tex Schramm

o Roger Staubach

o Randy White

o Lance Alworth

o Mike Ditka

o Herb Adderly

o Forrest Gregg

o Tommy McDonald

o Jackie Smith

The Dallas Cowboys first season in the NFL was not the kind of start they were hoping for. They failed to win even one game. A few years later, in 1965, they started their run of 9 straight playoff appearances. The Cowboys reached the Super Bowl in 1971, but lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The next year, 1972, the Cowboys returned to the Super Bowl, this time winning it over the Miami Dolphins 24-3.

The football Cowboys later went to the Super Bowl in 76, 78 and 79. The game in 1979 against Pittsburgh is still considered to be the greatest football game in Super Bowl history.

The team went through a lot of rebuilding in the late 80s and Tom Landry retired after the 1988 season. It was at this time that Jerry Jones also bought the team and brought in Jimmy Johnson as head coach. This began a run of success that very few football teams have ever experienced.

With Emmit Smith in the backfield, Troy Aikman as quarterback and Michael Irvin as wide receiver, the Dallas Cowboys won back-to-back Super Bowls in 1993 and 1994. After a major disagreement with owner Jerry Jones, Jimmy Johnson retired. New coach Barry Switzer came in and took the Cowboys to the playoffs 3 times, including winning the Super Bowl again in 1997.

This success has kept Dallas at the top of the football world for many years. With their steep winning tradition, this success can be expected to continue for many more years to come.
