With 2 Stations Coaches you will need only 1-2 coaches in program. With 4
stations set up you will need 2-3 coaches depending on # of kids in program.
With Agility Stations Coaches should only have 2 activities going on per
station. 1 hour programs will have 10-15 minutes for the Quickness and
Agilities Stations-5-7 minutes per station time. 1 hour programs will
have 25 (on average) minutes for Quickness and Agility Stations with 12-13
minutes per station. All groups will only cover two stations per any one
training period. (i.e. Groups 1 and 2 will train only stations 1 and 2, they will
not also train stations 3 and 4)
Rotate stations per session having 2 different groups doing a new station
each training session, groups should not do the same station two training
days in a row, unless otherwise noted. (This will keep the kids interested and
excited by having them learning new activities)

The Speed Workouts below are meant to be used with discrection. If athlete is having
trouble finishing workout, adjust workout to their ability levels.
The key point with starting for the 40 yard dash or any speed test are below:
10. You should explode gaining ground with fast, driving steps
11. Keep head down and let body slowly raise itself up (do not raise yourself up)
12. Keep Driving forward with arm pumping

Below are Flaws in Sprinting Mechanics that Our Instructors Must Learn to Progress:
Arm Action: If the athlete runs with tense arms, have them practice loose, swinging movements
from a standing position. Remember to have t hem swing from the shoulder and keep the arms
relaxed and at approximately 90 of flexion at all times. Think about picking your pocket!
Although the arms work in opposite direction to the legs, they must be coordinated with the action
of the legs for maximum sprinting efficiency.
Body Lean: The athletes body should have a slight forward lean (no more than 4-6). It is
important to note that the angle of lean comes from the ground and not from the waist. The lean
is caused by displacing the athletes center of gravity in the direction they are running and leaning
and bending from the waist will interfere with the correct mechanics of sprinting.
Foot Contact: Run on the balls of your feet! DO NOT RUN UP ON YOUR TOES!!! The toes offer
no power or stability to the runner and if they run on their toes, they will not be able to run fast.
Instead, have them stay on the balls of their feet and paw and push the ground, but dont reach
and pull toward the ground. Never reach your foot to the ground to sprint!
Overstriding: Dont have them reach and overstride to increase stride length, but rather have
them paw and push the ground and let the foot land underneath the center of gravity. Any
placement of the foot in front of the center of gravity will cause "braking forces" that will result in
the body slowing down. Focus on cyc ling action of sprinting. The right stride for the right body is
the most effective and efficient way to sprint.
Understriding: Dont take short choppy steps. Remember that quality sprint speed is a
combination of stride length and stride frequency and one does not replace the other.
Tension: Dont try to power through a race or sprint effort. To run fast, stay relaxed, keep a loose
face, hands, and body, running tight will slow you down.
