Running back - it's a critical position at every level. But, despite what you see on ESPN, it's not all 40 yard sprints and touchdown dances. In fact, it's far from it.

The most effective running backs are the ones who nail down the fundamentals. The kids who understand the game plan and execute it to a tee. And that involves a wide variety of nitty-gritty skills...

Receiving handoffs and maintaining ball security

Using blocks and accelerating through running lanes

Catching the ball and making plays out of the backfield

Helping to block blitzing defenders

But teaching all those fundamentals is no walk in the park. And for most folks - even experienced coaches - it can all be a bit overwhelming.

That's why we created the Running Back Skills and Drills eBook.

📦 What's Inside?

The Fastest, Easiest Way To Build a Top-Notch Running Back

Inside, you'll discover 42 fun and effective drills to develop the complete running back. All in the fastest, easiest way possible.

Just the raw drills and coaching tips that will engage your RB's in practice, unlock the secrets to an unstoppable running game, and give you the knowledge and confidence of a championship coach!

The eBook begins with 11 football-specific Agility Drills - so you can develop explosive speed, fast feet, and jaw-dropping multi-directional quickness!

Running Back Agility Drills

Bag Drill: Improves planting, controlled cutting, keeping knees high and maintaining balance at high speeds

Bags & Cans Drill: Teaches agility and demeanor in traffic – running backs learn to move their hips once they get through the line of scrimmage and into the second layer of the defense

Ladder Drills: These terrific drills help players develop rapid foot movement, crossing over on breaks, planting, driving and changing direction with a quick burst of speed.

Jump Cut Drill: Teaches players how to cut through and elude traffic on the football field

And a lot more...

Handoff and Ball Security Drills

Pocket Drill: Quickly refines your handoff technique and helps your QB's and RB's develop flawless handoff fundamentals (no more fumbles!)

Ball Transfer Drill: Trains your backs to seamlessly transfer the ball from one hand to the other while maintaining balance

Four Cone Strip Drill: Forces players to make sharp cuts while protecting the football from an aggressive, strip-happy defender

First Step & Pocket Drill: Emphasizes two essential running back fundamentals – making a great first step and developing a perfect pocket to receive the handoff

And a lot more...

Running Back Blocking Drills

Strike Drill: Trains players to get the hips low, explode into an attacking defender, and knock him back on his heels

Pads Out vs Linebacker: The absolute best drill for teaching RB's how to pick up a blitzing linebacker and protect the quarterback

1 on 1 vs Blitz: Use this "live" drill to inject your practice with some competitive juice - and get your kids playing with maximum aggression and ferocity

Running Back Receiving Drills

One Hand Warm-up Drill: Your players will LOVE this one. A great warm-up drill that dramatically boosts eye-hand coordination and body control

Catch & Hit Drill: Teaches running backs to catch the ball while anticipating contact - then maintaining ball security through the hit

Goal Post Catch Drill: This slightly bizarre (yet wickedly effective) drill quickly teaches players to catch the ball with their hands and fingertips instead of their body. You'll want to use this with your receivers as well...

Opposite Hip Drill: A fast-paced drill that helps players learn to make a difficult catch when the ball is thrown behind them

And a lot more...

Game Situation Drills

Meat Grinder Drill: The best way to help kids make difficult catches under heavy defensive pressure. Your players will request this one over and over...

Jet Sweep Mesh Drill: This rapid pace drill is great for teaching proper course to running backs – the drill also forces running backs to develop timing with the QB and to form a great pocket

Zone Mesh Drill: Emphasizes three important concepts - steps, mesh and course. Backs also learn how to read a lineman and adjust their route accordingly...

Settle & Noose Drill: Trains backs to find space between the linebackers, create a target, and catch the ball with proper fundamentals

And a lot more...

🇺🇸 Changing Coaches Lives Across the Country

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!

Rick A. Kiesling

New Braunfels Junior Ravens, Texas

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!

Mike Dutra

Coastal Tritons Pee Wee, San Diego, CA

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.

Eric Carrier

Livonia Orioles, WJFL 11-12 Year Old Champs

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.
