Defensive Back Skills and Drills is packed with simple, fun and effective techniques to help you build a dominating secondary. It's designed for players age 8 and up, with drills that work for all competitive levels.

You'll get instant access to 14 essential drills for footwork, agility, reading quarterbacks, man coverage, zone coverage, and a lot more.

Each drill is broken down with equipment lists, step by step instructions, illustrations, diagrams and coaching tips.

They're simple to set up, easy to understand, and guaranteed to skyrocket your team's performance on the field. Here's a sample of what's included:

How to teach the proper defensive back stance - including joint angles, weight distribution, and key coaching points for kids

The best way to teach backpedaling technique - work on this for 10 minutes per day and you'll see a dramatic improvement in your players' speed, agility, and balance

Retrace Transition Drill: trains players how to quickly and efficiently change directions at full speed (without getting their feet tangled)

A tried and true agility drill that's essential for safeties and taller corners

How to train your players to read the QB's body language, then break to the ball with speed and confidence. Master this technique and your interceptions will go through the roof!

A simple drill that quickly teaches proper jamming technique. Plus... a big jamming "no-no" to avoid (this mistake practically hands your opponent a TD on a silver platter)

My #1 drill for teaching players the fundamentals of playing press man coverage

How to train DB's to make a play on the ball when "in phase" with the receiver. Includes a little-known technique that disrupts the receiver's natural running motion and stops them from getting into a rhythm.

How to close the distance on an open receiver and make a play on the ball (while still securing the tackle)

In Phase Route Drill: teaches DB's to stick to the receiver like glue, while staying underneath the route

Corner Zone Reaction Drill: develops a DB's ability to read and react to the QB and multiple receivers when in Cover 3

And a lot more...

My little New Braunfels Junior Ravens had an undefeated season with 6 shutouts and only 3 touchdowns scored on them the entire season. We used quite a few of the drills and such from your books this year and it really paid off. Thanks!

As a first time youth head football coach, I was looking for a system that would help me run drills and set up practice. Your practice plans have helped me immensely. Now there is a good tempo to practice with new drills, and the kids love it!

Using the practice plans, we won the WLJFL Championship this year! We got more work done in less time, which gave us more time to run plays. Thanks Coach Steve for getting all the coaches together in this form.

It was a huge help because it gave me tons of new drills to run throughout the year that I was not previously aware of. The program gave me drill options that I can use now when my boys are young and drills I can implement as they get older. Our record was 6-0-2 for the regular season.
