2012: First Scrimmage

Today, we took on the 3rd grade team for about an hour of full contact. We held our own, scored twice, and only allowed them to score on a broken play.

Here’s how I evaluated things:

1) Tackling: There were some terrific fills by our LBs and some examples of good tackling. We’re still a little tentative at wrapping up and driving through the runner.

2) Blocking: Not bad. We were firing out and slowing pursuit. FB blocking was good.

3) Pursuit: A+ We were swarming and aggressive on defense and the gang tackling was terrific.

4) Technical: Snapping needs 500 more reps. We had quite a few high snaps but this is something we can correct with reps.

All in all, was very pleased with how we responded to a much larger 3rd grade team. Great job, Team
