Crossover

Purpose

To get down the line of scrimmage quicker for a Kickout-Block, a Trap-Block or a Log-Block

Description

Just like the stance drill, just on a given cadence the players explode from their stance and freeze after their first step

Coaching Points

  • pivot on lead foot only
  • crossover with trailing foot
    • Tackles step upfield
    • Guards step flat
    • Centers release
  • don't drop step with either foot
  • slash backside arm and leg through
