Special teams play has been a key to Ripon High Schools 38-2 record over the past three seasons. Coach Kelm believes that special teams must receive as much emphasis in practice and planning as offense and defense. Being aggressive and calculated make this special teams' package effective. Ten unique situations make up this special teams package. These areas include kick off, onside kick, kick off return, hands team, punt, punt fake, punt block, punt return, extra point/field goal and fake extra point/field goal. The punt game, onside package, punt block systems make it difficult for the opponent to prepare for Ripon. In all, 20% of all plays in a high school game are special team situations. This DVD is a complete presentation on special teams at the high school level and has been a crucial part of the consistent success at Ripon High School.

Georgia Military College has dominated defensively since switching to the 3-5-3 defense in 2001. Since that time, GMC has finished every season ranked in the top three in total defense in the NJCAA. By attacking offenses and making plays in the backfield, the Bulldogs confuse offenses and win games. In this DVD, Coach Burks diagrams many different ways of bringing 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-man pressure. He keeps the defensive back coverages simple and ties them into each blitz. All of his blitzes are simple, yet effective and will make game planning difficult for your opponents. By utilizing the five fronts of the 3-5-3 (base, solid, under, tough, and double eagle) offenses will have a very difficult time identifying from where the pressure will come.
