Coach Trabi’s Tips&Tricks: WR Stance

14.04.10

Autor: Robert Melzer | Kategorie: General, beam Tips & Tricks

WIDE RECEIVER STANCE & STARTS

Wide receivers are the cornerstone of every offense in today's passing game, be it in the pro- or Semi Pro area.
Good basic knowledge (Fundamentals) This position not only makes the quarterback's job easier, rather, they can be decisive for success or defeat in a game.

The stance: The first question, which foot is in front?

  • Inside foot in front?
  • Outside foot in front?
  • Both types?
  • The WR decides itself?

The choice is up to every coach. He has to choose the variant, die z.B. fits his system for timing reasons. The coaches say this: “It should be sound”. And the chosen variant should be carried out consistently.

All WRs then always look the same when they are on the line of scrimmage. Thus, you do not give the defense the opportunity before the snap on possibly. set upcoming routes.

“Inside foot in front” is probably the most frequently used variant for wide receivers for various reasons.

  • When using steps (Timing Routes) instead of counting yards, to reach a certain breakpoint, is it important, always start with the same foot. On a hitch route has proven itself: 3 Long Steps; 2 kurze Steps; 2 Steps to the QB. If the WR started with the other foot, he would have to take four steps. This would make the pass route deeper and take longer.

To be able to start quickly and explosively, the feet of the receiver should be offset (Staggered Stance). The distance between the two feet should be about shoulder width and the feet should be hip width open.

  • Stand across the LOS with your feet shoulder-width apart (QB in the back).
  • Now turn with the upper body and the balls of the feet parallel to the LOS, your toes should now be facing the LOS.
  • Place your back foot slightly outward (hip wide).

Since the receiver now has the correct exposure of the feet, now we come to the elements to be able to start explosively.

  • Bend your shoulders, which are already aligned parallel to the LOS, slightly forward over your forefoot to have the "body lean" forward.
  • Slightly bend both knees, you will notice, that there is more weight on the front foot approx. 70-80% front -20-30% back

Everyone will know: Sometimes it is very loud or excited during a game. It often happens in these situations, that you forget the "Snap Count": Either you start too early (False Start = penalty) or you start too late (no more timing = no caught ball).

So that doesn't happen, turn your head towards the ball. If the ball is now caught you can see everything and start in time.

Before starting, raise your hands to chest height and build body tension.

Set …… Hut.

Nein, No, only next time I will explain the start of the wide receiver to you. Until then, practice nicely, preferably in front of a mirror and always for both sides. You won't always be on the left, right??

The training camp in my view

02.04.10

Autor: Yvonne Mechsner | Kategorie: General, Inside the Team, Yvonne Mechsner

Pretty cold hit me and my team-mates Steffi and Miri into Silberborn. After a short detour via Holzminden and the local supermarket, we got hold of a parking space right outside the door. Gradually, other players from different teams arrived. Some I knew very well (Players in the 1. Party), some I did not know (Players in the 2. Party). The acquaintances greeted each other with hugs and chatter went straight off. When women come together… :-).

After the performance sports director has arrived, it was about time 10 Pm for check-in. In the order of logging the rooms were occupied. I shared a room with Steffi (BKL) and Sandra and Anja (both Dresden). Steffi must have felt pretty sure, with so many liners in a room ;-).

A short time later it was the first theory session on the program, separately for offense and defense. I was allowed to attend the Defense Theory.
According to the theory, we went with Upper pads out already. As nice as the weather in the morning, too bad it was the afternoon. Regen, Thunder and lightning shortened first practice, so it followed right back to the theoretical went. Even after dinner was not an end to the theory. Slowly, the fatigue was spreading and the capacity faded by the minute. Finally, I think it was so half 10, we were allowed to bed. I was following immediately :-).

Next morning: theory, Walktrough, Full Pads Training. It was still raining, so that the “race” was no longer recognizable as such. mud, Mud and mud again. If you do not stuck, slipped one from. Naja, the conditions were the same for all yes. So slowly turned me with a sense one, I did not know before. I had good competition on my Positon and true. I had to give everything and show, I could. Every word the coach was analyzed and scrutinized in the head: “What he means now so?” “Was that good or bad?”. With this feeling I went to sleep every night. So that's it, when your own performance is evaluated outside of their own team of neutral Coaches. Oh man… so I had to cope first. Nevertheless, the fun in the scrimmages was not neglected.

Saturday night was there yet surprisingly one meetings with the Postioncoaches. I was extremely uneasy. What to expect? What will he tell me? Am I good, I have to prove the next day again. Am I bad, I have to prove myself and am also possibly. inhibited by the criticism. That is hard. On Sunday, the last day there was the final-Scrimmage. There, too, one was reminded again, that this is the last chance here to prove themselves.
With each error, I have committed, the feeling was worse. “Is this the end?” On the other hand the fun comes out then but, the Football for me is yes. So I played free of the liver, by instinct. To 36 Plays the end of the camp was then announced. Now everything is done, Now nothing can be more change. The coaches have decided or will decide still in subsequent Coaches Meeting.

Conclusion: It was a new experience to train with so many good Spielerinnnen together. It was to compete against to see a new experience. And it was also a new experience, like football Germany brings together and how friendly the players were each other. A huge compliment goes to the Orga and Staff Team. Christiane had always turn to them an open ear and you could with any concerns. You had to worry about anything, it was all taken care of. I felt very well attended. Thank you very much.

PS: I'm going crazy and I look forward with all the good players together to stand on the field. 🙂

Tag der Entscheidung

31.03.10

Autor: AGebek | Kategorie: General, Blog, Inside the Team, Staff

Was für ein trauriger Morgen. Es regnet. Nicht ein bisschen, sondern ständig. Dazu hat man uns allen über Nacht eine Stunde geklaut. Einge haben abends zusätzlich die eine oder andere Stunde verschenkt, weil sie noch nicht einschlafen konnten.

Heute ist der große Tag der Entscheidung. Wer heute alles gibt und das neu Gelernte umsetzt, kann die Entscheidung der Coaches noch beeinflußen. Das Einzige, das jetzt schon feststeht, ist: Heute abend wird eine Entscheidung getroffen.

Der Vormittag steht ganz im Zeichen von Coach Trabi. Zuerst sind wieder einmal Special Teams gefragt. Mittlerweile hat der Regen aufgehört. Jetzt stehen verschiedene Positionsgruppen mit ihren Walkthru oder leichten Technik-Übungen auf dem Programm. Für den Rest bedeutet das eine Verschnaufpause.

Nach dem Essen steht das abschliessende Scrimmage an. Die letzten 36 Spielzüge im Camp. Die Coaches planen ganz genau, welche Spielzüge sie von welchem Spieler nochmal sehen wollen. Alle Quarterbacks bekommen eine Chance. Bei den Running Backs wird Suse Erdmann geschont. Sie steht als eine der wenigen bereits fest im Kader für Stockholm. Die Restlichen bekommen ihre Bewährungsprobe.Im Scrimmage erweist sich die Deutsche Defense als sehr stark und kann Vorteile für sich verbuchen. Das beruhigt, wenn man sich in Schweden später auf die Defense verlassen kann.

Nach dem Scrimmage folgt die große Verabschiedung. Es gibt ein Teamfoto, sowie Gruppenfotos. Die Portraits hatten wir ja schon gestern gemacht. Zum Glück, denn einige Spielerinnen kann man vor lauter Matsch kaum noch erkennen.

Nun folgt das große Aufräumen. Das ganze Equipment muss wieder im LKW verstaut werden. Die dreckigen Jerseys werden eingesammelt. Viele Kisten werden geschleppt.

Die Coaches treffen sich mit der Leistungssportdirektorin Christiane Langkamm im Meetingraum. Die schwere Entscheidung steht an. Jeder Postion-Coach gibt seine Reihenfolge der Spielerinnen bekannt. Besonders bei den Wackel-Kandidaten werden Vor- und Nachteile ausführlich erläutert und zusammen mit dem zuständigen Coordinator und den anderen Coaches diskutiert. Auch Coach Trabi, zuständig für die Special Teams, kommt immer wieder zu Wort, denn manchmal sind die Special Teams das Zünglein an der Waage.

Für mich, der die meiste Zeit des Trainings nur durch den Sucher des Fotoapparates oder Videokamera gesehen hat und sich nicht jede Position genau angeschaut hat, sind einige Entscheidungen überraschend. Das Traurige an Auswahlmannschaften ist manchmal die Auswahl. Einige Gesichter kennt man schon seit Jahren, andere hat man gerade kennengelernt. Ich habe in den letzten Tagen viele nette und sympathische Spielerinnen kennengelernt. So wie man generell sagen muss, dass die Stimmung im Camp sehr gut war.

In Strausberg werden aber viele davon nicht dabei sein können. Es muss auf 45 Spielerinnen reduziert werden. Die Erklärungen der Coaches sind überzeugend und wir sind sicher, die Spielerinnen ausgewählt zu haben, die in Stockholm den größtmöglichen Erfolg versprechen.

Nach dem Meeting werden die Sachen gepackt. Zusammen mit dem Equipment-Fahrzeug sind wir die letzten vor Ort. Es endet wie es begann. Mit Sonnenschein und einer leeren Jugendherberge, die in den letzten Tagen einige der weltbesten Football-Spielerinnen zu Gast hatte.

Teams do well not so common station in Hochsolling. pity, because the area around Silberborn is well suited. It is located in Germany and offers all reasonable access routes. And the holiday region with its rich nature is secluded enough, that focus on , but rather provides that matters. The sport.

The rare presence of teams needed us an even greater attention. We had three times the press at Camp. The Daily Gazette Holzminden, Westfalenblatt and Neue Westfälische (in the order of arrival) gave us the honor. we could maintain a result the next day in hand. When Daily Gazette we had made it to the front page and get an extra half a page in local sports. Our innkeeper got us three copies. Thank you very much.

Perhaps the article were the cause, that we had in the afternoon session as many onlookers, who were very interested and have watched enthusiastically. Turned even have been sitting in the trees around the field of play.
