Coaching High School Football gets back to teaching the fundamentals of football basics such as player positions and assignments, play names, whole numbering, interior line play, practice sessions, in-game situations/strategies, game day preparation and coaching philosophy. Included are numerous, tidbits, insights and coaching tips; plus examples of excellence and standards from a few college and pro football notables. However, not just a book of X's and O's, CHSF engages in topics particularly germane to teen and preteens such as sportsmanship, grades and citizenship; and also touches on handling off-the-field issues and distractions that may arise. CHSF is an honest approach to coaching football without the hype and hoopla or the false hope of playing big time college football or having a career in the NFL. For 95% of high school seniors, high school is the furthest they will advance in organized tackle football. CHSF helps coaches to help players get the most of their brief football experiences.
