Coaches teaching one another: USA Football launches Coaches' Notes

By Stephen Spiewak | Posted 4/13/2017

The way coaches learn continues to evolve.

Sure, the way plays are drawn up and Xs and Os are charted has been a constant in the sport through the years.

But paper playbooks and binders are giving way to digital diagrams and video walkthroughs.

USA Football’s Coaches Notes will help coaches master the technical elements of the game in ways that make sense for the modern coach.

Each day, USA Football’s Coaches Notes will feature one in-depth look at schemes, drills or areas for program development. Written by top coaches across the sport, these deep dives will feature diagrams, videos, graphics and detailed explanations designed with the high school coach in mind.

You can learn on your own time in whatever fashion you fancy, whether it’s printing out the diagram to do markups or pausing and replaying a certain play on a video to make sure you’re understanding the minutiae of a scheme or concept.

For an annual fee of $50, coaches will have access to 365 days of coaching wisdom that transcends the sidelines and explores areas of coaching philosophy, motivation and health and safety.

Get started with a daily dose of coaching lessons. Sign up for USA Football Coaches Notes today.
