In the booth

Coach -

For the defensive side we have 2 coaches. One coach just records while the other coach calls out the following information: Down, Distance, hash, yardline, formation, play, Hole/Zone, result.

Once the info has been recorded and the defensive series is over, the information is transferred to your hit charts. These are usually posted on the wall of the press box. We use a down and distance hit chart, a formation hit chart and a back field hit chart for the teams that use multiple formations. On the hit charts, we will record the play in the appropriate hole. For example 32 trap will be recorded in the 2 hole. Even numbers are strong side runs and odd numbers are weak side runs.

Now the appropriate tendencies can be disseminated down to the DC on the field at the completion of each down and in between series.

Good Luck!

I hope this helps.
