In this episode of the 'Coaching 101' podcast, hosts Daniel Chamberlain and Kenny Simpson discuss strategies and insights for spring football installations and seven on seven (7v7) tournaments. Daniel shares his experience as a National Guard member and new offensive coordinator, while Kenny, with his extensive coaching background, provides advice on installing core plays and concepts for both offensive and defensive coordinators. They emphasize the importance of limiting the playbook to manageable core concepts that can be expanded upon, rather than overwhelming players with too many plays. Additionally, they cover the significance of teaching football fundamentals over scheme complexity and discuss the value of seven on seven tournaments as tools for practice and competition. The conversation also includes tips on fundraising and resources for coaches, plus advice on teaching football concepts more effectively.
