Special Teams are one-third of the game. Every coach says it. Most of us don\\u2019t actually spend that much time on it, though.

In fact, a big part of special teams comes down to execution. Limiting mistakes. If you can do that, you can make big things happen.

I posted 4 Special Teams units on our Twitter Poll @footballinfo. The winner by a big margin was the Kick Return schemes.

And why not? Kick Return is a huge key to scoring for your football team. It\\u2019s probably the single special teams unit where you have the highest probability of scoring (PAT/FG not included).

Plus this is what\\u2019s going to set up your field position on the next drive. Or the opening drive!

In this episode we\\u2019ll break down kick return schemes for handling deep kicks, sky kicks, squib kicks and onside kicks. You\\u2019ll also learn how to use the right personnel on your Kick Return unit.

And last but not least\\u2026 we\\u2019ll talk about practicing your Kick Return team. How can you get the most from these guys in the necessarily short amount of time that you have?

In this episode, I mentioned Coach Lew Johnston\\u2019s Put the "Special" in Special Teams by Being Unconventional video. Coach Johnston has been a huge help to me this year, so\\u2026 buy his video!
