Warm-up: line up on the sideline and do some

stretches where we are moving. Lunges, walking knee
hugs, butt kickers, high knees.

10 min

Rules: I will talk about what the proper way to throw

the football and what the proper way to catch the
football.

5 min

Activity: have them get a partner and start out about

10 yards apart from each other and just throw the
football back and fourth so that they get the throwing
motion and getting used to catching. Then when they
are getting used to it have them take a three step drop.
Then split up into two groups and have them run
routes.

because of all the running that was done with the
routes.
