The easiest time I had keeping a team back was at a field where it had rained heavily for several days before. There was a pit for a long jump, or some other track and field event right about where the team box would be. It was filled with water, and was almost knee-deep in some spots. It served as a moat, helping to shield myself and my working area, like a king in a castle. The team stood behind this for the entire game. The only foreseeable disadvantage popped into my head, when a sweep came to my side. Fortunately, I was able to step back upfield, and let the run go by me, where the tackler and the runner slid out of bounds, and right into the water.
So, I suppose that I am not really giving any suggestions here, unless you have the ability to control the weather, and the layout of the field and the surrounding areas. It was just a pleasant coincidence.
