On behalf of the Southern Door Football program we would like to thank the association for allowing us to talk about our kickoff coverage. In the following article I will discuss our philosophy, goals, scheme, personnel, and drills, used in our kickoff coverage. Philosophy - We believe the kickoff sets the tempo for the game.
Field position is established by it.
We practice it every day and expect nothing less than perfection. Goal - To keep the opponent inside the 35 yard line and create a turnover. Scheme - This changes according to our kicker. We have placed the ball on the hash and directional kicked and angled our coverage. We also use the standard kickoff placing the ball in the middle with five men on each side.
