DC Wing-T player descriptions

Japanese sumo wrestlers have to push each other outside of a circle. We do the same thing only we have to players try and push each other out of the circle by using blocking techniques. We form the circle out of rope. Two players face off. You must push your opponent out of the circle in front of you to win. If you take him out of the circle behind you, you lose. If your knee touches the ground, you lose. A boom box with loud music goes well - And get everybody cheering and rooting. we run three circles at a time. Winners move right. Losers move left. At the end of the drill, the winners "tennis ball" drill the losers. The drill teaches players to maintain blocks longer and to take blocking seriously. You'll also find out who your real blockers are (And who they aren't). It will also prove to the coaches watching - And who always doubt - that small, fast linemen will beat big linemen. I always pick my tallest player and match him up against my shortest, fast player as a demonstration of leverage. Watch the little guy drive the tall guy out of the ring. Once you see this happen, you can realize that playing a small offensive line is to your advantage. Two years ago, our right tackle finished in first place. Finishing in second place was the smallest kid on the team.
