FYI coaches are the QB at this level.

My kid played starting in 3rd-4th grade. Kids were QB. Helped coach until I was the HC in 6th grade for him. There was no actual blocking at any of those levels. I remember the QB could not run....though if you wanted him to just snap to a kid who pitches or hands to the QB (who is then a RB) and he can. run.

what @Stakesarehigh said also true.....a 7 second count for player to rush QB. Though I think may have been either 4 or 5 seconds when my kid started playing.

Technically the blockers can’t use their hands and the defense are support run around the so called blockers but I let them play. Kids are having fun learning the game. Other dude imo needs to quit **** and let them play.

I guess....but if the other coach wants them to follow the rules kind of OK to point it out (without sounding like he's whining, of course).

Do whatever it takes to win, it's the only thing that matters.

Right. He said it with a whiny face and hands up like dude come on they can’t be doing that ma and then pointed out coaching previously which said yeah I have and nobody but you had cried about one kid accidentally blocking

So it's not enough that OP has to be an annoying youth sports parent, he then has to come here and start new threads where he can continue to be an annoying youth sports parent and, worse, is looking for validation for his awful antics.

The advice here is shut the f*** up during your kid's games because he's not going to be Barry Sanders and you're embarrassing and ruining it for him. We don't care if you think the coach is screwing up...he's coaching f***ing kids. Either start your own team and make yourself coach or shut up.

^You're just making my point, Responsible Dad. Stop ruining your kid's games. It's not about you anymore.

Did you pay any attention or just posting garbage? He is the only coach on the field of 8 teams who was making a fuss. Get your facts straight about ruining the game. You and him must be related

^What am I missing? He's unaware of the rules of a guidelines of the league and teams his kid plays for and is b****ing about it. While ignoring the whole thing is for fun and the coach isn't ruining his kid's future NFL career with bad habits. Just the classic football Dad who thinks he knows more than the people actually doing the job and decides to be obnoxious about it.

Youth Leagues are full of these **** and it's lame that a grown man who is supposedly a father has to run to a board full of teenagers and college kids to get justification for his childish antics.

QB straight up running would be absurd.

The youngest person on this entire board is probably over 30 lol

agree, but easy way around this by just letting someone else take the snap and then pitch or hand to the actual QB........Also at slightly higher levels like maybe 5th grade or above QB just running wouldn't be a huge issue.

don't always agree with Jordan23, but no clue what Hotel was even ranting about there as he was way off base when it came to what Jordan said.

The issue is not being able to blitz, you give the QB a huge head start and in addition to this they could do a lot of fake runs then pass type stuff

Granted you can hand the ball off a hundred times behind the LOS and then throw it

and latter is why it doesn't make a lot of sense not to just let the QB run at, say, 5th grade level IMO. It would hurt of course not being able to blitz but could just make a rule if QB starts to run forward anyone can come after him.

Then again as pointed out not like it's hard to get around it by having someone else get ball to QB.

One play that will always work is have a WR come around the QB for a reverse.....and let him have it. Then a little while later run a fake reverse. Kids will fall for it every time (at least once). Of course, for the fake and guy keeping it cannot have the player who takes the snap run it.

You can't block in the traditional sense, but you can get in the way. This makes fat kids decently valuable in flag football... which is probably why most schools encourage it during recess and physical education... it's all inclusive. AND there's always THOSE guys that are trying to chat up the girls instead of focusing on the flag carrier so the girls in flag football can at times be the best 'blocker' on the field, if they're hot enough.

POINT being, stop your useless drivel and go get a few fat kids and some hot chicks and your flag football team should be competing at Nationals in short order.

I mean, it's amazing the things I have to explain these days to our forum members.

@PDay8810 you remove that boring rating right now and give me a winner, you son of a ****.
