FB takes several steps forward then heads toward the 5 gap. After receiving the hand off, FB
makes a sharp and quick cutback into the 3 gap.
Note the Blocking by LG and C. This will confuse a rushing defense long enough to open a lane
for the ball carrier and allow a lane for the HB to attack the LB.
This type of a blocking scheme should be fun to use on playes up the middle for the young
players. Again, it get's everyone involved in the play.

leave them open for a good run down field.

THUNDER BOLT OFFENSE VS 6-2 DEFENSE
FORMATION: PRO RIGHT
PLAY : PRO RIGHT / 32 COUNTER STING
This play is a variation of the typical Counter Trap. Instead of the FB running wide behind the HB,
we send him inside to help with the blocking. The HB has to delay for a count of 1 or 2 to let the
FB clear. The HB takes his initial step to the left then cut's back right into the 2 gap.
