For everyone that questioned if i teach how to tackle i do heads up every year and teach form every day its up to the young man or young women to do it if they dont do the drill right they are pulled from the drill and if they cant do it right also the game. I record so i can show them what they do wrong since some kids are visual learners thanks for everyones comments kerp them coming!
At my high school we did tackle drills but the coaches never taught us the right form. so lots of kids would just lower their heads and try to blow up the other guy. Good job for teaching how to tackle and not just letting kids hit each other like other coaches do.
When I was a freshman, I got a major concussion doing this drill because one of my teammates (huge kid) drove with his helmet against my helmet... I remember seeing flashes (stars). Never was the same after that hit.
Your concussion is exactly what happened to me, although yours sounds like it was more severe, sorry to hear that. I just felt like I was drunk the next few days.
This used to be my favorite day at football practice in pop warner. Hitting day would let you know who was really physical. It's what taught me to run as fast as I could, get low and put my forehead in their chest while popping up and scooping their legs at the same time... It's how I became a linebacker with the most tackles in my state as a junior before I got arrested. I loved this "up the alley drill" as we called it.
it's great hearing the adult coaches saying "this is going to hurt!" before the kids hit each other. i'm sure the same level of adult leadership helped them get a job making $25k a year
You can see that a lot of these kids look apprehensive about tackling. Coach is doing a great job at getting them acclimated. As they get older and more experienced, this drill will be much faster.
When you’re a high schooler doing two a days and the heat index is 110 and the humidity is 100% and you got mosquitoes all on your shit, I wouldn’t blame them for being mad xD.
I agree no excitement. Our practices got lit because it was who's the baddest. Who's the hardest man. I think some cte came out of it but I wouldn't change a thing
As a player for 15 years including college and 17 year coach of 11-12 yr olds, this is the most BS drill you could do. Football almost NEVER has people running at each other at full speed from 9 yards head on. Players get hurt for no reason and it does not simulate real game tackling or ever running. This is a coach's ego in full shitty form. Angle tackling is much more effective and is how 95% of tackling is reformed.
Wow, getting old.. we did this 29 yrs ago freshman year..brings back memories.. I think we called it the tunnel of love. I was a Qb and the Free safety lit me up.. coach said, go warm up QB’s…😂
Ricardo Sanmiguel What u mean?!? U mean that helmet to helmet hits are good? This drill does not teach how to tackle this is just them hitting each other
@@annstewart8881 you have to be physical I'm guessing you have never played football before. This drill is where shit was solved. If you and some dude had beef this is where you proved it.
Rugby player and NFL fan, from Europe. I thought this was going to be a horrifying Oklahoma style drill. However I’m really impressed by this. Mostly great form, head to the side, tackle with the shoulder. You could make most these tackles in rugby, without pads, and be safe. If I had to suggest an improvement the tackle at 0:47 was slightly head first. May just be the camera angle. The tackle that was too upright you can’t tell what his form would be like so I’d want to see him get bend and tackle shoulder first. Good drill, well run, massive props to the coach.
Reminds me of my friend linemen who always went heads up with in tackling drills. Great times to the Albino Fowler. He taught me how to run hard and lower the shoulders. I remember when he picked me up and dipped me. My ribs were in pain. Hands down the hardest hit I ever felt.
I remember my first full contact football was peewee, before we began I was so excited then we got to experience hell week and that wasn’t so fun but I was an active kid so it wasn’t bad. Then came full contact and I remember I spent the first few days TERRIFIED lol, didn’t know if I could cut it...then I got super pissed in Oklahoma drills smashed some kid good and didn’t know how to feel, felt bad....then everyone was super stoked on the hit the coaches were sooo proud and I learned this is a mans sport and you have to sadistically destroy everything that opposes you and THEN it’s fun lol. Part of becoming a man was my first thoughts BE A MAN👊
Damn I remember this drill in high school so vividly. This kid Kyle and I were always last in line, he was a quick little bowling ball and I was the tallest, strongest defensive lineman. I can still feel the crown of his helmet hitting my shoulder and every week we’d go back and forth beating each other. Some weeks he would get too low for me to run through him, and some weeks I’d have to basically lunge at him as ball carrier just to stop his force coming with a low center of gravity. We called it death alley
Whoever is reading this, I wanted to say I hope you have a great day and that God loves you so much that he sent his son, Jesus, to die on a cross for your sins and he rose again from the dead three days later. God Bless! ✝️🙏🏼⛪️ And also, He doesn’t want you to go to Hell but he wants you to go to Heaven with him but you have to be Saved. How do I get Saved you might ask? Here are the steps below on how to get Saved! 1. Confess to Jesus that you are a sinner and ask forgiveness for your sins. 2. Believe that God sent His Son (Jesus) to die on a cross for your sins and that he rose again from the dead 3 days later. 3. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and your life and for him to be your Lord and Savior forever. 4. Build a Personal Relationship with Jesus by Praying and Reading the Bible daily and Live for Him Forever. I’m Praying for you and you are loved!
Ditto. This drill was always an injury - most likely a concussion - waiting to happen. Yeah, let's get 2 players going directly at each other at full tilt and see what happens. What could possibly go wrong?
When I was in middle school our version of this drill we had to lay on the ground with our helmets pointing toward each other and our feet away from each other on our backs. One person had the ball. When the coach whistled we had to hurry up stand up turn and either tackle or try to run through the would be tackler depending on which person you were. Lol fun stuff. I remember every time I had to try to stop the giant running back star kid (I was a year younger than the rest of the team but same grade and skinny) I would throw myself at his legs and wrap him up mostly by tripping him with my body but always earned a massive headache for my troubles. But hey I got to be the starting safety due to my speed and willingness to sacrifice my body for the tackle at all costs. 🤷♂️🏈
yup..if you ain't have the genetics...use got to be crazy tough...as you can tell by my grandmer...I ain't be having the genetic thang...but I'll kill ya without blinking...lol
Our coaches called this drill the "twilight zone". Forced helmet to helmet collisions to "toughen us up". Half the team would walk away from this drill with minor injuries, or splitting headaches. Great way to launch developing kids into life with potential life long chronic damage. But at least they're tough!
@@chrismcbride4839 Depending on how heavily you weigh anecdotes, I've experienced these drills first hand. The last two hits someone got their bell rung. Helmet by one, shoulder pad by the next. It's all semantics anyway when the bottom line revolves around your brain slamming into your skull. Head to head tackling drills has been proven to be objectively bad for anyone, especially children.
@@chrismcbride4839 unfortunately you don’t need to be hit in the head to be concussed. If you get hit in the body hard enough (especially unexpectedly) you will sustain some whiplash. When your head swings around your brain is in there sloshing in your skull. I’m a fan of the Steelers. I absolutely love watching games. However CTE is debilitating, and I feel sorry for the guys who take the hits.
I’m all for big hits, but save them for the game. Have them lay on their back, head to head to start instead of around a corner into a sprint. Just asking for unnecessary injuries. You don’t have to run full speed into the other player to teach form. I think this coach could using a little coaching.
Arrrrggghhhhh at the end Lolol man how I miss these days good coached football practice is the best therapy for kids hands down leave it all out on that field!
I’m a firm believer that not a single thing was gained here. We might like to think it makes them more tuff. But being prepared, and strong will do more for these kids.

@@user-zc4ly5tt6j That is not (despite what many think) coaching. Don't "tell" them....show them. Even at the HS football level (where I coached for over 35 yrs), we still have to show them. Kids don't listen to "talk".
seems like yesterday but it was 1980 I was a beast coach put me at fullback but I wanted to be a linebacker so I played both, probably explains my psychotic behavior as a 50 year old.
Where did you play ball? Even in pop warner/pee wee we were always taught never to lead with your helmet. Bend at the knees, shoulders squared, head up. And this was like twenty years ago, before all the extra precautions for safety
love this...in my state we called this "bull in the ring". a bit different but same premise...last two dudes standing...I was 6' 1", 185 lbs in high school. was always one of the last two dudes left in this drill...the other dude was 6' 4" 250lbs...he went to USC... I did a 4 year stint in Chino...funny how things work out...I wonder what ever happened to gary...?
Dude people who dont understand how tough this drill is don’t need to speak about them standing around it’s banned in quite a few places cause of injuries and it hurts to run at someone full speed and tackle or be hit so doing this every other minute would seriously hurt people
it’s so weird the difference between games and practice i played running back and linebacker and during games i wasn’t thinking about the hit but at practice hit for me was how i told them i quit
I don't hate because I grew up an amateur boxer but I just don't feel comfortable anymore watching good young men get bashed up. Still gonna like and sub tho. It just gives me anxiety since I've seen many young men get hurt catastrophicly. I know they accept it and love what they do but I'm old enough to know what it does to you later. The crazier the sport the crazier the injuries. My respect to these young men and the coaches 🙏. Just remember to leave something in the tank for when your my age gentlemen.
Shady Beckhamjr He’s not teaching them anything, half the kids didn’t even try really, this does not teach form or fundamentals, this is just asking for a concussion, I’m all for big hits, but save it for the game
Robert Robbins if this is 10u I got made respect for your team. I play high school ball, having to teach kids not to stick your head into people’s chest. My coach would love you. We have to teach the basics, which forces us to waste time we need to not be last in our division. In 1A If you want to know the best in our division it’s a team called nanih wayia. Have one of the best 14u
The final practice before the regular season games started I dislocated my knee... This was my second year at highschool. I always loved watching football and I was so excited to start playing. It led to bigger problems and I missed all but 2 games at the end of the season. I played CB but was out of practice and barely played. We missed the playoffs and I never played football again and have a limp on my left leg

It's a stupid drill. This correlates nothing in football little to no tackles are make 15 yards apart head on head.

but it was 1980 I was a beast coach put me at fullback but I wanted to be a linebacker so I played both, probably explains my psychotic behavior as a 50 year old.
Every kid needs to experience this at least one time in there life
I look back and I’m happy I didn’t do the hitting drills in my younger days cause we all went head first, the coaches just wanted us to hit really
Where did you play ball? Even in pop warner/pee wee we were always taught never to lead with your helmet. Bend at the knees, shoulders squared, head up. And this was like twenty years ago, before all the extra precautions for safety
Michael Peeshaun it was pop Warner in Tennessee, one of the kids plays for college probably NFL bound
love this...in my state we called this "bull in the ring". a bit different but same premise...last two dudes standing...I was 6' 1", 185 lbs in high school. was always one of the last two dudes left in this drill...the other dude was 6' 4" 250lbs...he went to USC... I did a 4 year stint in Chino...funny how things work out...I wonder what ever happened to gary...?
I love when coaches say "you gotta wrap!" after the kids go temporarily unconscious for a ms after contact. lol
This drill makes basketball players
This drill reminds me of playing football we had a drill similar called nutcracker. Thanks to that drill I got a concussion from it.
When I used to play we called this drill “cat in the alley” . Thought they got rid of this drill because too many people would get injured lol
So nice to see kids getting concussions.
Dude people who dont understand how tough this drill is don’t need to speak about them standing around it’s banned in quite a few places cause of injuries and it hurts to run at someone full speed and tackle or be hit so doing this every other minute would seriously hurt people
I feel like couch is just having fun 🤣💀
it’s so weird the difference between games and practice i played running back and linebacker and during games i wasn’t thinking about the hit but at practice hit for me was how i told them i quit
"Faster Freddy" 💀💀💀
1:09 my dude realizes if it can happen in Madden it can happen in real life
He got hit sticked
Who loves when the two biggest kids on your football team do a drill like these
Grant Pacers huh? My high school Elk Grove High was afraid to play the Pacers when they had Shaq Thompson and Moala lol
I don't hate because I grew up an amateur boxer but I just don't feel comfortable anymore watching good young men get bashed up. Still gonna like and sub tho. It just gives me anxiety since I've seen many young men get hurt catastrophicly. I know they accept it and love what they do but I'm old enough to know what it does to you later. The crazier the sport the crazier the injuries. My respect to these young men and the coaches 🙏. Just remember to leave something in the tank for when your my age gentlemen.
I miss doing this drill now in middle school everyone is made of glass
Your exactly right! These kids need to wrap when they tackle!! That’s why wrestlers are your best tacklers!
You’re doing a great job coach keep up the hard work!!
It shall be called the FREDDIE SHUFFLE!! Awesome!!
First off, don’t know why this is in my recommended second, 1:11 damn ray Lewis chill out this practice
I started giggling soon as buddy started running 😂😂😂
To the coach sir thank you for actually coaching kids on the fundamentals of tackling great form
Shady Beckhamjr He’s not teaching them anything, half the kids didn’t even try really, this does not teach form or fundamentals, this is just asking for a concussion, I’m all for big hits, but save it for the game
You already know who are the ones going to the next level..
Bruh I remember me being on 10u and see them I was scared and all then in high school now
Yet you see all these negative people that have no idea comment on what they think they know. Nobody wanted to play us
Robert Robbins if this is 10u I got made respect for your team. I play high school ball, having to teach kids not to stick your head into people’s chest. My coach would love you. We have to teach the basics, which forces us to waste time we need to not be last in our division. In 1A If you want to know the best in our division it’s a team called nanih wayia. Have one of the best 14u
Good ol Cat and the Alley!
Here is a verse if anyone wants it: Ephesians 4:29
Jesus loves you all :)
I'm glad this was on my recommendations 😊
"Ohhh he needs some milk" 1:11
Who else use to hate this with a passion but now that they are older kind of miss it
I remember doing this at practice. My coach use to tell me to ease up on the hits 😄👍
That second to last kid lol. Poor kid got hammered.
1:11 he knew he was at the wrong spot😭😭
The final practice before the regular season games started I dislocated my knee... This was my second year at highschool. I always loved watching football and I was so excited to start playing. It led to bigger problems and I missed all but 2 games at the end of the season. I played CB but was out of practice and barely played. We missed the playoffs and I never played football again and have a limp on my left leg
