Training Program for WHs

[ABoselli]

I used the powerpoint program from some gentleman in Georgia last year on keys for wings and BJ. It went over great. Everyone said it was terrific, but I'm not sure how much of it stayed with people throughout the season.

What I'm more interested in is the nuts and bolts of seeing the game from there. Looking at the printed page or powerpoint screen is all well and good, but I want to talk about (and demonstrate) where they should be concentrating at the beginning of the play, as the play develops and at the end of it. Also, things to keep in mind given the down/distance, clock situation and position on the field.

Reps are the one true training tool that works, but I'm trying to come up with something so that the guy who's back there for week 1, his first time there, will have a mental checklist as well as a feel for things. These guys are gonna live and die on that one big call, and I want to make sure they're in position to make it so they have a better chance of getting it right.

As far as position meetings, we're not crews, so this might not be so good for us. There are certain guys who work WH more than others and U more than others. Wings and BJ's might be anybody on any given week.
