Proper Stance for Blocking and Proper Tackling Form
It does not matter the age levels of the players on your youth football team, you must make sure each one of them can get in the proper stance and tackle with the proper form. The difference between the younger and older kids in that you will have many more players who need work when they are younger.
Both tackling and blocking are not hard to teach or drill. The players will pick it up quick, but will need a lot of reinforcement. As they get older, some players get lazy so it is important to keep reinforcing the proper techniques and form.
Please read the section on the website showing the proper three-point stance. I believe it is the most detailed and accurate description on how to teach the proper three-point stance.
The same goes for the tackling technique. You will learn exactly how we have taught and reinforced this over my 22 plus years of coaching youth football. You will not only keep your players safe, but also teach them the basic skills they will need the rest of their playing career.
