My book has over 200 pages on designing and coaching defense, choosing the correct players for each position, achieving near-perfect tackling technique, as well as other topics that a coach needs to know to run a team like videotaping, scouting, substitutions, parents meeting, and many other topics. The book features the 10-1 and Gap-8 defenses, but discusses other defenses at length.

I recommend that you buy Coaching Youth Football and Gap-Air-Mirror Defense for Youth Football before you buy Coaching Youth Football Defense. Coaching Youth Football Defense contains a number of valuable chapters that do not appear in any of my other books, namely
