7 on 7 Passing Leagues Nice Addition to Summer Football Training

Tuesday, July 7th, 2009

There are a lot of things that players have traditionally done to prepare for the up and coming football season.  From running ladders to the weight room;  the same old things have been in play for years.

But in recent years the development of the 7-7 Passing leagues has really blown up the high school football scene.  In these mini-tournaments teams bring their backs and receivers and will work offense against defense going 10 minutes at a whack against each other.  Things get heated and there are a lot of balls thrown, caught , and picked.

This is a great way to see what you have as a coach and team and to see how things are shaping up for the season.  Recently a top national 7-7 Tourney was held in Vegas and it drew a big crowd.

Truthfully this is a very productive addition to the Summer Camps, Combines, and sweat of Summer.  It is great to see the athletes build an appreciation for each other and even a friendship or two along the way!  See some great Pics from a recent 7-7 below.
