Format: a printed book, shipped to you.

Every line coach has stood in individual period with fifteen minutes and no plan, and run the same three drills he ran last week because those were the ones he could remember. The kids get reps. They do not necessarily get better.

This is a drill book built to be opened on the field. Stance and first step, footwork for run and pass, hand placement and punch, drive block, reach block, combo and double team, pass protection slide work, and sustained contact through the finish. Every drill has the purpose written out, the teaching cues, the errors you are going to see and how to correct them, and how to progress it as the kid gets better.

Every drill also carries a QR code. Scan it with your phone and you get real footage of that drill being run, with the coaching explanation from actual clinic tape. You are not looking at a diagram guessing what it should look like at speed, and you can hand the phone to an assistant so he sees the same thing you do.

Who it is for: offensive line coaches at youth, middle school and high school. It works no matter what you run up front, because the drills teach technique, not scheme.

What it is not: it is not a blocking scheme book. It will not tell you how to block an odd front or install gap scheme. It builds the technique that makes whatever scheme you run hold up.
