Season starts April-June annually
The benefits of playing 7v7 non-contact football include: A. Perfecting the Passing Game. Because teams cannot tackle or run the ball, QBs have the chance to work on their accuracy and timing when throwing a football.
B. Helps You Stay in Shape. Seven on seven football is a great way for players to build up their stamina on account of all the running involved.
C. Plenty of Repetitions. Instead of just running drills which can be monotonous, 7v7 football allows players to practice different game scenarios. This could be a great way for high school kids, or any level, to get ready for their next game.
D. Less Chance of Injuries. By eliminating tackles, players can focus on their running and passing without having to worry about defending themselves. Some leagues require players to wear soft-shell helmets to protect themselves from head injuries, which already don’t occur often because there’s no tackling.
E. Great Exposure. Although college coaches and recruiters are prohibited from actually attending 7v7 games, increasing coverage of tournaments has become available, giving football players more opportunities to showcase their skills.
F. Defensively: Alignment and Assignment Perfect. Defensives have the ability to practice their man and zone coverages with the understanding that every down is a passing down. Resulting in advanced preparation and understanding of the game, slowing the speed of the game down which in turn will minimize injuries. RULE 1: PLAYING RULES
