Coaches,
We just finished up a great “conference call” on the Pistol Spread Option with 6 coaches from 5 different states tonight! It was awesome. I would encourage all of you to download SKYPE. It is a free download found at http://www.skype.com
Once you have it, add me. My username is CoachPratley
We are considering making weekly chats a part of the PSO offering after the weekly Radio Show.
Thanks,
Coach Pratley
Playsheet
Feb 19th
One of the most commonly asked questions that I get is about my call sheet that I use on game day. For sake of all coaches, I thought that I would share one of my sample game plans with you.
The attachment is an excel file. There are several tabs included on the worksheet that have wrist coaches printouts, practice plans script, etc. The link can be found here at Game Plan 2009.
Please feel free to leave comments or questions about the Game Plan here.
Playbook 2010 version 2 Released
Feb 16th
The new 2010 Version 2.0 playbook is now available on the site. Special thanks to Coach Wade Lang from Wofford and Coach Noel Mazzone from Arizona State. Both coaches were excellent speakers. I took a lot of their ideas from the Glazier Clinic this weekend and incorporated them into the new system.
