About this listen

In this episode of Inside The Game, we build on our spring coaching curriculum by focusing on switching the play—a vital strategy for breaking down organized defenses. We explore how scanning and pre-reception awareness help players identify opportunities, make quicker decisions, and execute effective switches under pressure. You’ll hear practical coaching advice on body positioning, passing technique, and communication cues that bring the concept to life on the field.

Our guest, Sam Nellis, shares his perspective on how scanning transforms a player’s understanding of the game and how coaches can nurture that skill in training sessions. We also tie in the core value of Teamwork, showing how switching the play relies on trust, movement, and support from every player on the field.

Whether you're looking for session ideas or game-day coaching tips, this episode is packed with insight to help your players grow both technically and mentally. Tune in and let’s keep developing smarter, more connected teams.
