Product Description
Product Description
This book shows coaches of American football the plays, strategies, and drills they need to produce first-rate, special teams. This fully illustrated book reveals everything coaches need to know about kick-offs, kick returns, punts, punt returns, extra points, and "gadget" plays for every special teams situation. George Allen's Guide to Special Teams is entertaining as well as informative. Allen describes coaching experiences to bring his points home. He concludes each chapter with "George Allen's Best," his profiles of the best special teams players, and concludes with his version of a "Special Teams Hall of Fame." The book also features appendixes including 20 scouting charts, 8 player handouts, special teams rules, and more.

3.0 out of 5 stars
good intro to special teams, 29 Mar 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Guide to Special Teams (Paperback)
This book is a very good introduction to special teams from both a team and individual perspective. Allen was one of the first coaches to commit equal time to the practicing and coaching of special teams. Although the book covers most evryhting in great detail, it can be very elementary at times. Most good special teams units employ a multiple approach just like the offense and defense. There are shortcomings in this area but, with a little imagination, you should be able to add to the base of knowledge given here.
