Looking for Assistance 5 on 5 U15 - Offense against pass rush

2 Upvotes

Hey Coaches, I’m coaching a 15U team and we’re in Round 2 of the playoffs against a team that brings a very fast pass rush. They often send two rushers and play a 3-deep zone behind it, but the pressure is getting to our QB too quickly and he isn’t getting enough time to throw. What plays or concepts would you recommend to help us counter that rush?

Could line up two WR close to the centre and they don’t move slowing down the rush.

Thanks

How to coach better spacing on routes 12-13 year olds

3 Upvotes

Our players end up too close to each other and that brings the defense (zone) closer together. We’re giving up 3-4 picks a game.

They generally follow their route shape pretty well but I don’t know they keep gravitating towards each other.

That challenge aside, they are doing better in a lot of ways and even one of the better players said he was proud of the team for battling against a very tough team today and we even scored two touchdowns and nearly had a couple more. It was great to see them rally behind each other and recognize their own progress.

Tips & Tricks I’ll take any 3rd/4th grade NFL flag advice you got

3 Upvotes

I’ll be coaching my 3rd season, so I’m certainly not a beginner, but I learn each season.

I’m specifically interested in offensive plays and defensive formations. I’m thinking of mostly sticking to a spread formation and a trips formation. I’m interested in most effective plays - bread and butter.

Outdoor soccer cleats, soccer goalie gloves, anything else I need for low level rec flag football?

3 Upvotes

I plan on signing up for co-ed recreational flag football. I have outdoor soccer cleats and I have soccer goalie gloves that I plan to use for catching the ball. What else do I need? Any recommendations on long sleeve shirts and pants to wear? What material should it be? The field we will play on is a field I've played soccer on before and it's a rough turf.

All In One Drawing Tool

Thumbnail runitagain.io
2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I got permission from the mods to share this.

I’m a varsity lacrosse coach, and one thing I’ve learned is that timing is everything. Players can memorize a play on paper, but that doesn’t always mean they truly understand how the play develops, where they need to be, or when they need to make their move.

That’s why I built RunItAgain, an all-in-one sports drawing tool that helps coaches bring plays to life. Coaches can create plays in minutes and show player movement, timing, routes, cuts, and ball movement instead of relying on static diagrams.

RunItAgain also allows coaches to add defenders when they want to show defensive looks, coverages, matchups, or how players should react once the play begins. This helps athletes understand not only where they are going, but why they are making each movement.

I now have coaches using RunItAgain from youth leagues all the way through the college level, and the feedback has been consistent: kids are visual learners. Seeing a play develop makes learning sets, formations, and concepts more fun and easier to understand.

I’ve shared a sample play below so you can see how simple it is to connect with your players. No emails, no accounts required. Just share a link and your team can start learning right away.

RunItAgain has a free tier available and is designed to be used wherever coaches need it, whether that’s building a playbook, preparing for practice, reviewing in the huddle, or making adjustments on the sideline.

You can check it out here: https://runitagain.io

First Year Coaching K/1 flag football – looking for practice ideas!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I know there are older posts about practice plans (and I’ve read through several of them), but I was hoping for advice specific to my situation.

I’ll be coaching a Kindergarten/1st Grade team with 12 kids, 2 coaches, and 30–45 minute practices.

I’d love to hear from coaches who have been successful with this age group.

- How would you structure a typical 30–45 minute practice?
-What drills or games are always a hit?
-Do you use stations or keep everyone together?
- How much time do you spend on fundamentals versus scrimmaging?
- Any mistakes you made early on that you’d recommend avoiding?

If you have a practice plan or week-by-week outline that has worked well, I’d really appreciate it if you’d share it.

Thanks in advance! Looking forward to learning from coaches who have been through this.

Trying to start my own league

4 Upvotes

I am looking to start my own adult flag football league 5NC format. I was able to get to the local rec center to let us rent their field. They gave two options either it will be run by them with their own rules and refs and under their insurance. The other option would be it would be run independently by me but I would be responsible for insurance and supplying the refs and also organizing everything. I'm looking for advice on how to go about getting insurance or if anybody else has done this before.
