HL thought process

[Forksref]

We use SNAP-TACKLE-END as a thought process just prior to the snap.

SNAP - look at what happens just prior to and during the snap: false starts, snap infraction, encroachment

TACKLE - read the tackle to help determine pass or run

END - make sure the block on the end is legal


Also, we say: "Watch people, not the ball." On a run,especially a sweep, watch the blockers until the ball crosses the neutral zone (R has the ball until then).


Thanks for the checklist. I will use it with our association.
