Most running backs in youth football dream of running 80 yards down the sideline for the winning touchdown, the crowd cheering and they are the hero. That is a great story but very few running backs actually get that chance. When youth football players get a chance to run their run usually consist of 5 or 10 or 15 yard bursts in several different directions.

Dave Cisar, who is a successful youth coach, http://www.winningyouthfootball.com/wp-blog/?p=1955 does drills that change direction all the time by learning how to cut. In order for a player to be successful he must “ the player must lower his center of gravity.” By dropping your hips to keep the speed you are currently going.

All running backs, like any tackler musst learn to drop their hips and lower their center of gravity to make the most precision cuts without losing their speed.

What type of communication coach are you? As a youth football coach all of us know that if communication is not understood there will be break downs in getting the correct actions down.  Obviously the better the communication is, the better the relationship is.

Are you a command style coach? This is a coach who is definitely in charge and is always right.  THis style of coach can be described as OLD SCHOOL, one who has yet to change with the times.  Are you a submissive coach who lets others speak over you or are you a cooperative coach who will engage with others and give them mutual respect and take initiative. Whatever you are, youth football coaches should encourage two way communication.
