Read & React Youth Practices & Drills: Practice 1

Coach Rick Torbett is known worldwide for the development of the Read and React Offense, a system for implementing 5-player coordination without the use of set plays.

This course is the first in a series of eight practices that Coach Rick Torbett directed for a youth team. Even though youth players are demonstrating, you can tweak certain amounts of almost every drill to fit the level you are coaching. You can link these into a series of complete practice plans or mix-and-match to create your own practice plans!

The drills you'll learn in this online course focus on team coordination and tempo control in the Read & React offense. The drills that the team is running become the offense.  There are ino drills in this course that do not directly relate to what your players learn while operating the Read and React Offense.
