What is the best way to growth speed for football?

Improve acceleration!

This means getting to full speed in as dinky time as possible. Football requires short intense bursts of speed, and the most victorious are those that can get to top speed quickly. Remember Barry Sanders? Not the fastest guy on the field but nobody accelerated better which is why he was so hard to bring down.

Teaching acceleration however can be tricky. It requires the athlete to apply more force into the ground while push-off to achieve a longer tour and cover more ground. Explaining this concept to any athlete, especially the younger ones, just gets them mental too much. This is where simple hurdle drills can make it infinitely easier by production technique improvements more automatic.

The hurdles used for these drills are only 6 and 12 inches in height but spaced properly will force a greater tour length. Athletes should be instructed to push-off harder versus reaching to get over the hurdles. permissible spacing will also force the athlete to stay lower and get more forward lean to put the hips and legs at a greater mechanical advantage to push. It also military a more fine arm swing.

By adding a plyometric component to these drills, athletes will also learn how to land correctly. Just by timing them straight through the drills, they learn fast how to land properly with good body operate because it significantly improves their times. Landing hard with stiff legs will slow them down, versus a soft, quiet landing that results in greater acceleration and decreased times.

Here are four drills guaranteed to enhance acceleration:

1) Hurdle Starts - these are ten yard sprints using 1 to 3 hurdles (6" height). Space the hurdles far sufficient apart that the athlete has push hard to get over each one. Use one hurdle initially to enhance the first step and eliminate stutter stepping, then progress to three. Start from a standing position or from a three point.

2) 12" Hurdle Jump to Sprint over 2 hurdles - jump off two feet over a 12" hurdle, land on two and then accelerate over the next two hurdles for a total of 10 yards. Again, hurdles should be spaced progressively further apart to force more push off.

3) 12" Hurdle Jump to Sprint Laterally over 2 hurdles - same idea as #2, but move the hurdles to the side to force a cut then sprint. Start with the hurdles at a 45 degree angle to the 12" hurdles, progress to a 90 degree cut.

4) singular Leg Hurdle Hops to Sprint - set up three six inch hurdles equal length apart. Hop over each hurdle using the same leg, then sprint 10 yards. Start by having the athlete stick the landing in a singular leg squat position between the first two hurdles to force good landing technique. As they land over the third hurdle, immediately push off the landing leg into the sprint measure of the drill. progress by speeding up the hops between the hurdles.

Tips for Success

Hurdles must be properly spaced to force the athlete to push harder. If too far apart they will try to reach to get over them. The discrepancy between pushing and reaching is certain to see for both the coach and the athlete. Do these drills by position or with kids of similar ability. Skill players tend to be faster off the line and can deal with more spacing between the hurdles. The larger athletes tend to need less spacing, too much will cause stutter steps. Be creative. There are a whole of ways to alter these drills to make them more challenging. Consolidate separate jumps or change up the direction of the sprints. Have your lineman pull over them, throw to the receivers while the jump and then accelerate over the hurdles, etc. Just so you know it works, time the 10 yard dash without the hurdles. Add 3 hurdles properly spaced and run again. Times will drop immediately in most cases. Some kids will need a few reps to learn but all my athletes enhance within three trials.

Who Was Really the First Black Quarterback?

!±8± Who Was Really the First Black Quarterback?

Who was the first black NFL quarter-back? That is a very interesting question and the response seems to depend greatly on who you ask. You will hear names like Briscoe and Harris, Williams and Thrower but were any of them really the first black QB? Let's do a little research.

Some are convinced that the correct answer is the one and only Willie Thrower. He played for the Chicago bears in mid October of 1953. It was his first and last game. He never appeared in another game and it would be 15 years before another African-American would take a snap in a pro game. But is this historically correct? Others think it was a man named Joe Guilliam, known as Jefferson Street Joe not until the early 70s. Joe even has a web page dedicated to him with this honor and both are often credited with the title of the first black quarter back. But had there really been no one before these players?

Due to racial attitudes of the time it seems that while black players were allowed to play not many were given starting positions, and while all of the previous mentioned players do have their roles in the history of black quarter backs, and it is accurate to say that Briscoe was the first to start a game. He played for as a QB for the Denver Broncos in 1968. Time lines and history tell us that it would not be until 1974 for a black player to start a playoff game. His name was James Harris and he played for the Los Angeles Rams. It would be fourteen years before Doug Williams would be the first to start and win a championship for the Washington Redskins in 1988.

What is the best and most accurate response? The correct answer would have to be none of the above with the correct response dating back much further than common misconception.

In fact, Fritz Pollard is the correct response. He played quarterback way back in the early 20s for a team known as the Hammond Pros. Frederick Douglass "Fritz" Pollard was born in 1894 in Rogers Park, Ill., a Chicago Suburb. He was one of eight children. Pollard graduated from Lane high School in Chicago where he ran track and later went on to play college football at Brown University. In 1915 as a freshman, he led Brown to the Rose Bowl vs. Washington State. He was also the first African American to play in a Rose Bowl. Among other accomplishments in the spring of 1916, he set a world record in low hurdles for the Brown University track team, qualifying for the Olympic team. Also in 1916 he led Brown to an 8-1 record with 12 touchdowns. He was the first African American head coach in the NFL. He also organized the first inter-racial all-star game in Chicago to showcase African American players. "Frtiz" Pollard died in 1986 at the age of 92.
