Drills

You don't need twenty drills. You need five or six good ones, run well, every practice. This is the library — every drill here is built for volunteer coaches: simple setups, no special equipment, and one coaching cue that makes it click.

Start with flag pulling. It's the tackling of this sport. The team that pulls flags gets off the field; the team that doesn't watches the other team's fastest kid run up and down the field all afternoon. Get good at that first, then layer in throwing.
