Defense Skills: Ask you child to show you his three point stance. You can then say "down-set-hike" and have him try to get past you to get the person with the flag.

A few things to keep in mind about the fundamentals:

1) always keep head up, looking for the person with the ball

2) don't engage, get by the Offensive line

3) keep you balance at all times, can not make a play when you are on the ground

 

Talk to your child about Offense and Defense. Ask questions like the following.

"When your team is on Defense, what are you trying to do?" <Get the flag of the person with the ball>

"When your team is on Offense, what are you trying to do?" <Keep the QB/Running Backs from being touched>

 

It is also a good idea for your son to get comfortable with the ball. Play catch. Ask them to show you how to hold the ball when they run.

 

Have fun with it.....
