Should Annual Background Checks Be Required For All Adults in Youth Sports?
Important safeguard against sexual predators but not foolproof

It is every parent's nightmare that their child will be the victim of a sexual predator while participating in youth sports. This has become a very high profile issue in sports as well as in other segments ofmomsteamblue society.  Unfortunately, sexual abuse of young players occurs in team sports as well as in individual sports, girls and, as the Penn State scandal highlights, boys as well. 
 
Background Checks: A Powerful Tool

All adults involved in youth sports over the age of seventeen, including volunteers and paid employees, should pass an annual background check, with no "grandfathering"  or exceptions.

Using the Quick Game to Win First Down 
By By Dan Ellis Head Coach  W.C. East High School

Throwing the football is something we did this past season with enormous success.  We threw it often and threw it well.  However, it is not necessarily the number of attempts you try in a game, but it's the efficiency with which your QB executes the passing game

X&O Labs  that matters.  When you choose to call passing plays, completing the ball is of the utmost importance.  The first play we install in the passing game is our Hitch Concept.  The reason behind that is simple - if teams allow us to throw the hitch, we will take advantage of it all day.  We tell our QB's it's a steal if they allow us to throw it consistently. 

The Hitch Concept carries both a horizontal and vertical stretch.  It has multiple coverage beaters imbedded.  In this report, I will explain the concept, QB footwork and progressions and the different ways we have to run the play.
