Offensive Basics • In this document we will discuss the basics of our offensive system • We will cover main ideas like huddling, formation(s), motion(s), and cadence • These are the first things every offense MUST understand before we address our running and passing game SPLITS / HOLES GAPS / TECH HUDDLE FORMATIONS MOTIONS CADENCE Previous Next
Line Splits / Hole Numbering Offensive Numbering System: Splits: 2-3' 2' 2' 2' 2' 2-3' Holes: 9 7 5 3 1/0 2 4 6 8 • These are the numbers for the point of attack in the running game • The 0/1 Holes are basically through the center position • The 2/3 Holes are aimed at the inside leg of the guard • The 4/5 Holes are aimed at the outside leg of the guard • The 6/7 Holes are aimed at the outside leg of the tackle • The 8/9 Holes are aimed for the outside leg of the tight end Previous Basics Next
Defensive Gaps Gaps D C B A A B C D Techs 9 8 7 5 4 4i 3 2 1 0 1 2 3 4i 4 5 7 8 9 • These Gaps and Techniques are used by defense for alignment and defensive responsibility. As an offense, we need to understand these so we can be better prepared to attack a particular defense. Previous Basics Next
The Huddle • The Basic Huddle will consist of the Center "Calling" the Huddle at a depth of 8 yards from the ball. The Center is responsible to keep the Huddle "Sharp". Only the C and Q should be speaking in the Huddle. • Q will get signals and make the call one time and allow Center and Wide-outs to exit huddle. Q will then call play one more time for everyone else and break the huddle. • Line of Scrimmage Q X H F Y Z Previous Basics Next
Formation(s) • We use a Basic System for formation(s) at Berea. We will have the five offensive linemen, the Quarterback (Q), Tight End (Y), Wide Receiver (X), Flanker (Z), and two backs Fullback (F) and Half-Back (H). • We use a basic Right / Left concept where the Y and the Z are "married" or align together in the formation and go to the right / left call while the X and H are also "married" and align opposite the side of the left / right call. • We will use different personnel groups to get different looks • We will use Tag Words to move some specific kids within each formation Previous Basics Next
Personnel Packages • We use multiple personnel packages to get more kids involved and to get different looks for our offense • We feel this helps to teach specific kids, specific things and lets kids work toward their strengths • Some years we will be limited in personnel and simply not use every package • We also use special packages week by week as needed • We FOCUS on three Main Groups • BRAVO: Our Base Personnel (Q,F,H,X,Y,Z) • ALPHA: Double Wides (Q,F,H,X,A,Z) A is the Alpha (second Wide Receiver) who replaces the Y. • CHARLIE: Two Tight Ends (Q,F,H,C,Y,Z) C is the Charlie Player (second Tight End) who replaes the X. Previous Next
RIGHT FORMATION (BRAVO) Basic Rules: X is ALWAYS a wide player, 8 – 12 Yard split from offensive tackle. Y is ALWAYS a tight player, 2 – 3 foot split from offensive tackle H and Z are to be 2 x 2 from the closest offensive linemen We use personnel groups to get into different looks (Example would be to put in an extra X to replace the Y, that would give us a Double Slot Look We will use Tag words to move players around X Y H Q Z F Previous Next
RIGHT FORMATION (ALPHA) X is always a wide player, 8 – 12 Yard split from offensive tackle. A or X2 replaces Y in the Alpha Package and by rule becomes a wide player Remains a Right Formation as it changes nothing for the other players X A H Q Z F Previous Next
RIGHT FORMATION (CHARLIE) Y is always a tight player, 2 – 3 foot split from offensive tackle C or Y2 comes in for X in the Charlie Package and by rule becomes a tight player Remains a Right Formation as it changes nothing for the other players C Y H Q Z F Previous Next
Position Tags • We also Tag certain Positions to move them without need for a new formation • We TAG our H and Z the most (most learning here – a reason we use multiple personnel groups) • Q, F, X and Y only have a few tags to learn Previous Next

Motion(s) and Shift(s) • Motion(s) are relatively simple in our system, we use three basic motions: JET, ROCKET, and Destination(s). • We TAG the player in motions (Z, F, H) • JET motion is motion across our formation • Rocket Motion is Motion Deep to I formation • Destination(s) are simply movement to a desired point in the formation which are called by the hole numbers (i.e. Z Jet, F 4, H Rocket) • Examples Z JET H ROCKET F 4 X Y H Q Z F Previous Basics Next
Cadence • The Cadence we use will consist of a series of calls • The Cadence can be used for AUDIBLE / DIRECTION / ETC… • We use Cadence to shift and/or set motion as well • We Shorten Cadence in 2 Minute (Attack) Offense • This is our basic Cadence: • DOWN (Sets the Alignment / Line go down to 3 point stance) • SHIFT (If Called) • Color and Number (Could be dummy call or carry significance) • Color and Number (Same) • SET (Readies everyone for Snap) • GO (Snap Point) – Could use multiple Go's • Example (DOWN, RED 18, RED 18, SET, GO) Previous Basics Next
