Offensive Line is a skill position, and one of the hardest positions in
football – but it also
happens to be one of the most important. Footwork, hand placement, proper
leverage, and other
fundamentals are learned through skill specific training and repetition.
OL specific training can
help any athlete in their journey, whether that’s as a starter on
their high school team or on their
mission to play at the next level.
These training sessions will be for high school football athletes and focus on the two main aspects of offensive line play: run blocking and pass blocking. Starting with the fundamentals of getting into a stance all the way to advanced techniques used by pros.
Run blocking: Moving an opponent from point A to point B is the most basic
job of an offensive
lineman. Training sessions will work on efficient footwork and steps to
engage defenders, as
well as proper placement. From zone blocking to pulling, there are many
different ways
offensive linemen are asked to move, and this training will cover all of them.
Pass blocking: Offensive linemen are asked to stop faster, more athletic
players from getting to
the quarterback. And they are asked to do this going backwards. Good pass
blocking technique
is often overlooked at the youth level. These sessions will work on getting
out of your stance,
proper footwork, and effective hand fighting to engage defenders.
