with Rick Kelm, Ripon HS (WI) Head Football Coach; 2005 & 2003 Wisconsin Class 4 State Champions, 2003 Wisconsin High School Coach of the Year
Special teams play has been a key to Ripon High Schools 38-2 record over the past three seasons. Coach Kelm believes that special teams must receive as much emphasis in practice and planning as offense and defense. Being aggressive and calculated make this special teams' package effective. Ten unique situations make up this special teams package. These areas include kick off, onside kick, kick off return, hands team, punt, punt fake, punt block, punt return, extra point/field goal and fake extra point/field goal. The punt game, onside package, punt block systems make it difficult for the opponent to prepare for Ripon. In all, 20% of all plays in a high school game are special team situations. This DVD is a complete presentation on special teams at the high school level and has been a crucial part of the consistent success at Ripon High School.
When you think of the Air Raid offense, the first thing that comes to mind is great quarterbacks and elusive receivers. Over the years this offense has generated a great deal of yardage through the air. A large portion of that comes from the involvement of our running backs. Our running backs play a vital part in our offense because they give us the opportunity to create mismatches with different defenders throughout a ballgame. Many times we get a fifth or sixth cover man matched on our backs, which is often one of our best athletes. Our philosophy is to get the ball to the person who can score as fast as possible.

In Air Raid Offense I, Coach Hatcher reveals the secrets that have made Valdosta State an offensive juggernaut in DII college football today.

This is an offense that works effectively from multiple formations and within multiple offensive schemes. Each position is broken down with emphasis on routes for backs and receivers, rules to follow versus man coverage, 2-deep zone coverage, and 3-deep zone coverage. Each segment features game footage to demonstrate how the plays should look when run correctly and what reads should be made. Air Raid Offense II and Drills for the Air Raid Offense are excellent compliments to Air Raid Offense I.
