Hey guys, I'd like to solicit some help from anyone who's got something to offer.
In the next week or two, we will begin sending out a newsletter. I want to make sure that this is not just obnoxious spam, but has something of value in it. So, here's what we need:
If you've got a play that you really like, send it to joe@gridironchat.com with a drawing and a short write up about it. Who does what, what's the purpose, how it has worked for you - OR - how you have seen it work. From you youth or high school coaches I'd love to get some stuff you don't necessarily do (want that too!) but that you've seen on Saturday or Sunday from the big boys on TV. Remember that we're trying to teach football to all levels, so translate the coach-speak if you can! And you don't have to be a coach to submit your favorite play!
We don't need a stunning diagram, I can re-do that if needed, just try to get the point across. You can draw it up in Paint and save it as a .jpg file to attach to the e-mail. Or draw it in Word, PowerPoint, or Playmaker Pro - any of those works for me. Or just describe it, we'll draw it and send it to you to make sure we have the right idea.
There's no pay, you get a free subscription but, well, its free anyway. So... do it out of the kindness of your heart! Help out a friend! And do it for Pride, we'll put your name on it. No way I'm trying to claim your Triple-Screen-Option-Throwback-Reverse-a-rooski play.
Include any information you'd like to get out there like your school, your website, blog, etc. The site and the podcast are really starting to grow, and we want to have as much to offer as we can handle!
