Description

Listen as Coach Daniel Chamberlain and Coach Kenny Simpson breakdown the differences in Athletes and Football Players, how you should be planning to use each, and how you can help either one become a more rounded football player.

What is the difference between Athletes and Football Players?

• Athletes generally measured on things you can see - size, strength, speed
• Football players may have a skill set that translates
• Ability to process information - goes for any sport
• Toughness

How do you plan to use each in your system?

• Need players to be in leadership roles
• Athletes need to touch the ball or tackle the ball
• Work to develop each - work on weakness, but coach to their strength

How do we help develop the other side?

• Football player - work on normal offseason - especially speed
• Athlete - Football 101 - work on knowledge of the game - Work on in practice
• “Football Academy”
