WIN SUDDEN CHANGESudden change is an unexpected shift of momentum (usually caused by a turnover).

1. What it takes (Attitude)

B) Think and Talk turnover

C) Running and Hitting

D) Must think of keeping opponent out of end zone

3. What Sudden Change does

How to Eliminate Big Plays

KEEP THE CUP

KEEP THE CUP is a concept we will use to teach leverage vs. a

ball carrier.

3 LEVERAGE PRINCIPLES

1. FORCE: THE DESCRIPITION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR

OUTSIDE LEVERAGE ON A BALL CARRIER.

2. PURSUIT: THE DESCRIPTION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR

INSIDE LEVERAGE ON A BALL CARRIER.

3. FILL: THE DESCRIPTION OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE

MIDDLE PORTION BETWEEN FORCE AND PURSUIT.

KEEPING THE CUP GREATLY DIMINISHES THE CHANCE FOR

GIVING UP A BIG PLAY!
