Tea Area Titans OL Drill: Building Strength and Footwork
The Tea Area Titans 11A football program is gearing up for the upcoming season with a focus on building strength and footwork in their offensive line players. One effective drill to incorporate into your training is the 'Bucket Step' drill. This drill consists of 3 sets of 10 reps, with a 30-second rest period between sets. Players start in a three-point stance, then step forward with one foot and place it in a bucket or cone. They must then step back into their original stance, focusing on quick footwork and explosive power. Coaches should emphasize 'explosive step' and 'quick reset' cues to players. This drill translates to game performance by improving OL players' ability to quickly react to defensive linemen and maintain a strong stance.
