I got one for my son's birthday. Finally I get to watch my husband having fun with the kids. Our 10 year old especially loves football and looks forward to their short training sessions together. Plus the players are so "cool". My husband has a great time because he finally has something to do with them and the kids love having his attention! It's just really great to see them having so much fun together. My sister is returning the video game she got for her kid for Christmas and is buying one of these. Thanks for giving us the choice.

I am thrilled with the quality, substance, and entertainment value of this youth sports series. Finally there is a product available to parents and coaches alike which not only concentrates on the fundamentals of football taught by the experts, but also elevates the importance of "character" training as well. Thanks Backyard Drills - job well done!

Unfortunately, right after ordering the product, I found it more than 100.00 Dollars cheaper at the Dallas Cowboys page. I regreted my purchase deeply.

This one is obviously not a Hollywood type production. It looks, sounds, and feels like something that I could of put together myself using Microsoft movie maker, which is disappointing for the price. Bill Parcels does have some good insight and advice, but what he -and all the other professionals that were assembled for this football training tool- have to offer are very simple and very basic. If you have absolutely no idea what you are doing when it comes to coaching football, then this will be a good place to start.

It is disappointing to see that instead of showing the correct technique and form when conducting these drills, they use some random dads and sons to execute the drills, which really doesn't give a good idea of how they are supposed to be done. All the drills and examples are very brief and rushed. The highlights are OK but I can download those on You Tube. This video could have been so much more in quantity and quality, especially for the price. This is great for fathers trying to help their sons improve, but not all that great for a coach trying to improve his team.

Sadly this caused the recipients (my daughter and her boyfriend) a lot of trouble. It came postage due and wasn't redelivered even after they paid the extra 59 cents or whatever. Don't you have a post office with a scale?

I am a father of a young football player. Before I bought this dvd, I would say my sons skill level was equal to Charlie Frye or Treant Dilfer possibly Kosar. Anyways you get the picture a very bad quarterback! Since he is learning from players from Different NFL teams and a hall of fame coach(Parcells) he has learned about cutting down on the fumbles like Ernest Byner. His interceptions have gone down considerably unlike Brian Sipes career. I don't know how well he will learn to ride a motorcycle in the future, but I am sure that a trained chimp can do it better than Kellen Winslow! Thanks Tuna! Go Cowboys!
