Anybody else here coach 5-6 year old tackle football? Just wondering if anybody had some plays or advice.

Keep up the good work. Remember, these guys will be voting the laws you will have to live under when you get to be my age. My generation failed miserably, don't make the same mistake.
"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6
It's kid football not political training numb nuts , It suppose to be fun .
Let kids be kids and enjoy their youth .There is no place in coaching to push you views on life and politics on THEM.
Once he gets the hang of he will do just fine play ball and make sure it if fun for THEM.No need to preach to them Or push your views on them Stumpy.
Just make it fun pool girl and you will get as much out of it as they will.
We've already been practicing a few weeks, just starting to run plays. I sorta got thrown into coaching, last coach was a real butthole.
really I don't like or dislike stumpy ,I just think its no ones right to tell someone how to in doctorate their kids .Its like sending your kid to collage and finding out some liberal teacher is telling them how they should vote instead of the school curriculum. Just like its not a football coaches job to tell parents how to raise their kids or anyone else's job .I have a strong suspicion Jaime and Shorty don't like each other.

You truly are an Ironhead. You missed my point completely. :alberteinstein: THE DADDY SPENDING TIME WITH HIS SON DURING HIS FORMATIVE YEARS IS THE POINT. Not some Iron headed coach instructing the kid about politics or God forbid, Religion.
Wasn't it Brett Farve who said he would be leery to let his child play football? I think if it was my child I would reconsider the sport for all the reasons these professionals have spoken out against it (Brett wasn't the only one). I just don't want anyone's child to wind up like the great Muhammad Ali.
One year we had to bounce a coach because he would yell and pop the kids up side the head when they messed up ,half the parents pulled their kids out of his team .
I had a dad get blistering pissed at me because he demanded his son be Quarterback.problem was the kid could not tie his own shoes his mom did it for him before every game.Same problem we had last season, last coach even threw his clipboard across the field and stormed off and sat in his car during game. We lost every game, they moved him up to coach bigger kids, they've lost every game he's coached with them as well. I call him Al Bundy trying to live his youth through his kid reminiscing about his high school days. I actually had to convince him to keep his kid at our level. He wanted to move him up to get hit by bigger kids to get him ready. Can you believe that shit. lol
