Question on NFHS Formations

[ajmc]

Coach, you might seriously consider that 3rd and 4th grade football players are a long way away from playing NFL, or NCAA football, and trying to master multiple rules codes can cause a lot of unnecessary confusion. Focusing ENTIRELY on NFHS Rules (presuming that's the rule code your teams play under) will simplify your job and enhance your ability to TEACH THE GAME to these beginning players.

As players and coaches mature and evolve into grasping the skills necessary and strategies of the game, they can deal with the advanced applications of those rules specifically designed for more mature and more talented players at higher levels of the Game.

There are different rule codes for different levels of the Game, for good reasons.
