Must be a mighty advanced group of kids you have in your community.
Here in the Bronx, somewhere from 7 thru 18 YO. Don't know yet which group I'll get.

My understanding is that with the younger ages, you're best off with either no passing or quick passes. I was told by one parent that last year they could hardly get off any passes, the rush would be on top of them so fast. So I'm thinking no step drop, just raise the ball & shoot. The reason I'm looking to work it off wedge action is that the wedge is so basic, easy to teach (no blocking rules to memorize, don't even look at the defense) that I want to see how much I could work off it.

I'm looking to implement some version of http://users.bestweb.net/~robgood/fo...Horse_Fly.html , as age appropriate. QB would get the ball snapped into hir dominant hand, should be that much faster to get a quick pass off.
