The positioning our association has adopted for FG's and PAT's was taken from an article in NFHS quarterly I believe. In a 5-man crew the BJ will be under the goal post as will either the HL or LJ depending on the whether the kicker is right- or left-footed. The R will always be about 8 yards to the side of the holder and looking at the holders chest. Whichever wing is on that side will be under the goalpost with the BJ. U will be at his normal scrimmage position. If there is a fake or busted play, the R is in good position to get to the vacant sideline and the other wing is still "at home" to cover his normal sideline. If the fake goes to the R's sideline he will trail the play as it goes upfield and the wingman under the goal will get to the sideline and then head upfield towards the play and hopefully get to the goal line before the runner. So far it has worked pretty well. We generally try to notice which foot the kicker is using during pre-game warmups.
