How to Make a Digital Football Clinic
Mar 04, 2022Everyone always asks me how I make my digital white board videos for my web clinics. When I install with my team we always start with our install videos. Our install process has 3 parts.
-
Video / Film:
Watch someone else do it correctly, incorrectly, and teach it.
-
Draw it up:
Go through the install step by step on the white board. Give the players templates and a pencil so they can draw it up with you and take notes. We make it “School Like” by giving them Guided Notes to fill in just like they get in school.
-
Walk through and Rep on Field:
Walk through it then practice it in drills, then rep it in team session. (We all do this part too much and not enough of the first 2!)
All of the templates you need are available inside our iCoach.Football Member Area. This includes all of our install videos, handouts for the players, film cut ups, and everything else you need for your uptempo no huddle system install.
Digital Whiteboard for Football Coaches
The digital whiteboard videos are made using a field background template. I included some of ours below.
I made the templates using a tool called Canva. Canva is the easiest image creating software I have ever used. It takes me seconds to make images, logos, ect. I actually made the logos for two of the high school teams I coached in my career using Canva.
After you have your background of choice here is the process to make the actual clinic videos.
You will need an iPad (with apple pencil ideally but not required).
- On your iPad Download the Explain Everything Basics App. It’s free!
- Upload our Field Layout Template into Explain Everything.
- Click Record and Start Teaching.
Explain Everything App
Explain Everything has tutorials on how to use the software. They are very good. It’s pretty simple to use.
I have added some blank templates for you to test out. You can download them below.
