Offense

This FirstDown PlayBook category will house any and all blog posts about offense. The style of offense may vary as we serve many different versions of football. However, the mission here remains focused on offense.
There will be run game help that will include the various run categories like trap, sweeps and of power run game. The numbers may vary too as we include, not just 11 man football but also other versions like 8 and 9 man football.
FirstDown Playbook has always been the industry leader when it comes to the passing game. This will never change. We will provide a lot of help in this area for coaches at all levels. This includes 7on7 coaches too.
