Drills & Fundamentals
FirstDown PlayBook consists of football coaches who have worked in the NFL for many years. We understand the importance of football drills & fundamentals. Yes, we have taken a different approach by starting with plays and schemes but there is an endgame. One that you will like.
FirstDown PlayBook is adding Coaching Tools to your “Find a Play” area on the website. We are going to be filling you in with much more about this over the course of 2022. We just wanted to point it out to those of you who are becoming accustomed to the “Find a Play” dashboard.
Coaching Tools is an area that will open up many areas for you and us on FirstDown PlayBook. This area will be used to branch out into tools that you need as a coach. We are now offering an area where you go to for offensive templates as well a defensive templates.
This will also be an area where we begin to share drills by position with you. The reason we are mentioning this here os that from time to time we update you about this right here. The FirstDown PlayBook Drills & Fundamentals category will keep you updated on our position drill installs.
