FirstDown PlayBook PlayCard Vs PlayGrid Teaching
The more ways a coach can teach their subject matter the better off they are going to be. FirstDown PlayBook had this squarely in mind when we created your PlayCard playbooks and your PlayGrid playbooks.
We spent a lot of time talking to football coaches at all levels to see how they teach. FirstDown PlayBook also had the obvious advantage of having a staff that consists of football coaches as well. We all understood this. The one thing that has always been true is that humans and specifically players all learn differently.
Some people learn from reading while others need a diagram. Players normally rely on a play drawing, however; they also benefit even more if they have the opportunity to actually draw that very play. Of course walk throughs and practice are always core when it comes to teaching football.

On the other hand, there are times when a coach wants the player to see multiple looks all at once. On offense the Guard’s assignment might be very different when comparing a 40 front to a 30 front. A Defensive Coordinator understands that he must prepare his defense to line up against any and all formations that can show up. This is where FirstDown PlayBook PlayGrids make this easy to show.
