 1. Ball Positioning Phase

• When carrying a football, the ball should be held by either your right or left arm. Your hand covers the nose of the ball and the bottom of the football presses into your elbow. The ball should be held high into your chest and it should be tight with a lot of Pressure against your body. The arm that is carrying the football is Flexed about 180 Degrees in the Sagital Plane around the Mediolateral Axis. After the football is secured in this position you should try to keep movements of the football to a minimum.
