Agility Drill

By: David & Matt

A football linebacker agility practice drill.

Objective - Teach good feet agility and to keep the shoulders square.

Action - Align five dummies on a line. Place a cone about 5 yards away on either side of the dummies. Line up your linebackers in single-file at one of the cones. On the coach's first signal, the first player in line sets up in a good hitting position. On the 2nd signal, the linebacker leads with his right foot as he shuffles over the dummies. At the last bag, the player turns and runs past the 2nd cone. After each player goes through the bags, have them repeat the football linebacker drill in the other direction.

Coaching Details - Make sure each linebacker has the shoulders square, head up and is in a proper hitting position. Be sure they shuffle their feet without crossing over.
