Westfield Bulldogs CBs: Master the 'Mirror, Mirror' Drill for Lockdown Coverage
At 6A powerhouse Westfield Bulldogs, cornerbacks coach, Mark Johnson, has developed a game-changing drill to refine his players' coverage skills. The 'Mirror, Mirror' drill involves two cornerbacks facing each other, 5 yards apart. On the coach's signal, the defenders mirror each other's movements, focusing on staying in sync with the opponent's footwork. Perform 3 sets of 10 reps, with a 30-second rest between sets. Key coaching cues: 'Stay on my hip,' 'Mirror my feet,' and 'Keep your eyes on the quarterback.' This drill translates to game performance by teaching cornerbacks to anticipate and react to receivers' moves, staying one step ahead. By mastering the 'Mirror, Mirror' drill, Westfield's CBs will be equipped to shut down even the most elusive opponents.
