Coaching Footballs Zone Offense

This book explains the inside zone to the TE and away from the TE. It also does the outside zone, misdirection, traps, naked boot legs, play actions and other stuff. I really enjoyed reading this book. This will be a book I review each season before we start pratice.

In depth and complete

If you ever wondered what football commentators meant by "zone blocking" this book goes into the details of what that means. It describes the two bread and butter running plays and how the blocking scheme adjusts to multiple defensive fronts. If you understand anything about football's finer points, it's a lead pipe cinch that Coaching Football's Zone Offense will connect the dots in this approach to offensive football.

First hand experience

I attended school and took many classes from Coach Z. To say he's a zone fanatic is an understatement. The man teaches this in such a simple way, he makes it seem like it's the only way to block.I've heard people say that it's hard to teach, but with the built in rules and assigned zones, I think it's easier than a man blocking system. There's never a question with this system of who has what area or who takes who on a stunt. If kids understand the fundamentals of the system, everything comes naturally. Most high schools in the southern part of our state use this system without problems teaching the kids.Coach K.

Great job of breaking-down a good scheme.

The authors of this book did a really good job of explaining the assignments for every offensive player on their base plays, the Inside Zone, and the Outside Zone.

well written account of the zone offense

The author Stan Zweifel, is a zone offense fanatic. His book is easy to read and more important, the offense is easy to install. Both the inside and outside zone plus a passing game is explained. I plan to use this very offense in the near future.
