Spread Section #4

South Carroll Offense Goal Line and Short Yardage In goal line and short yardage situations we will use a tight end formation. We have the ability to use two tight ends and adjust our backfield to a one or two back set. Out of this formation we can still run our basic passing package. We will use four or five basic running plays. The key to success in this formation is aggressive blocking and the mentality that we are going to get the first down or touchdown.

139

Goal Line Formations Our Goal Line system is based on two tight-end formation with two backs in an I formation. We also have one flanker. In our system we have an adjusting player that will line-up according to formation call. We use a number system to move the adjuster (in yardage) to his appointed position. We can also move other players by adding formation adjustments, which are words.

South Carroll Offense Game Plan Templates Included are few samples of the different game plans that we have saved over the years. Hopefully you can use something from one or all of them. It is important to take from the ideas you like and fit them to your preferences. The game plan that you use must be functional to you. Remember be prepared, but do not try to everything on the game plan. It is better to be very good at a few things than to be mediocre at a bunch of things.
