Youth Football - 5/3 Defense

[@breatheright577]

It was my first year as a defensive coordinator and those who doubt this I ran a variation of this and our kids won district! 8-0 38 points aloud all year 4.75 points per game 5 shutouts Thanks to this channel for helping me deciding what I wanted to do when I started working on our defense this summer!

Great stuff man. Coaching 10year olds and we don’t have capabilities to film right now and this is what I’ve been preaching. This will be perfect for practice tonight.

Just as an update this is my second year as defensive coordinator using this defense, i did add some twists and variations but this year second year in a row winning our conference 8-0 14 points allowed all year 1.75 points a game allowed 6 shutouts I think it worked out just saying

[@wingtsally649]

I will add this in the near future

Awesome!! Thank you

I ran this youth defense. However a 3 tech tackle is begging to be trapped. Teams will also spread you out and make you play your outside backers play in space.

Very sound. Your kids know what you want from them.

This helps a lot thank u

There's only 10 I see on the feild

[@wingtsally649]

Go to about 1:15 once the vid forwards along. The safety is off the screen initially (and too deep!).

[@briansass4865]

I count 11. The two linebackers are tight together and look like one person.
