PRACTICE

 

Repetition allows players of multiple skills positions from quarterback to defensive back to work on high repetition drills to hone their skills during the offseason. 7on7 is the perfect way to assure they are able to fine tune all these skills prior to the season. It allows players to work on their timing, chemistry, and in-game assignments against some opposition.
