The objectives, principles and mechanics of successful kickoff returns is detailed in this DVD by Montclair State Special Teams coach Mike Cieri. The third of a five-part instructional series, Coach Cieri discusses man blocking schemes, proper kickoff techniques, drills and the assignments--per player--for three actual returns.

In this DVD, you will learn from Coach Cieri:

* The strategy behind maximizing your kickoff return.
* Man blocking schemes for a successful kickoff return.
* Identifying kickoff team personnel.
* Three detailed kickoff returns with assignments: The 'Mister' (Middle) Return; The 'Rambo/Leroy' (Alley Right and Left) Return; and 'Rocket/Laser' (Alley Right and Left) return.
* What if? What if your opponent aligns unbalanced? What if he kicks from the hash on the opposite side? What if coverage personnel moves to the west side of the field?

Coach Cieri:

"Timing is crucial to the successful execution of a kickoff return. All players must be in synch and know their assignments. To be successful it's not the scheme itself but the technique behind it. Film study of your opponent is an integral part of kickoff return success."

This DVD contains extensive game film.
