On YouthFootballOnline: Effective Zone Running at the Youth Level
Effective Zone Running
The Problem
- How can we create running lanes with or without a superior OL?
- How can we help young (inexperienced) RB’s get to daylight?
The Solution
- Zone Blocking (Double teams at the point of attack).
- Providing the Runner with a Key to Bang/Bend/Bounce.
What exactly is Zone Blocking?
- Zone Blocking is the concept of blocking the play-side half of a defender in a designated area (Zone).
- The Primary responsibility is the Down Lineman (DLM).
- The Secondary responsibility is the 2nd level defender (LB, Safety, Overhang player).
Defining the Zone
- Have your Linemen extend their left arms to 10 o’clock and their right arms to 2 o’clock. This is ‘the Zone’.

Coaching for Coaches. It's about the Process, NOT the Result.
