CANADIAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE PLAYERS' ASSOCIATION GAMS PIAA RICOPYRIGHT 1917 SUN SYNDICATE THE OFFENSIVE LINEMAN by LAYNE McEOWELL BC LIONS • PASS PROTECTION TECHNIQUES The pass protection block is probably the most unnatural movement that a lineman must master. There are, however, a few basic principles that can be learned through practice. Body position.; The knees should be bent at about a 45 degree angle .and you should be up on your toes. Bend from the waist so that your shoulders are in a vertical line with the knees. It is very im- portant not to slump to this position but keep the back very rigid, The head is a very vital key in pass protection, You should be looking,, up as far as this position will allow. If your head is down you .will be top: heavy and prone to lunging. Your feet should be about shoulder width. Whenever you move.your feet. it should be a quick shuffle Never cross your feet: A good drill to practice. is to get in the pass protection position and shuffle down a yard marker as fast as you can, staying on your toes. Go five yards in one direction and then as quickly as possible, five yards in the opposite direction. Another good drill to practice pass protection is to have a defensive man stand across from you and dodge back and forth while ' advancing slightly. You assume the pass protection position and "shadow" him or try to duplicate his moves and stay in front of him. i (\i , l ///i 1 4C2LC",. /IA r' '"11111►1imr�„lin ILLUSTRATIONS BY DICK OIBSON Bowling LADIES' LEAGUE Jean's Sparetires lead this league with 20 points; Carolines Bedpans are close behind with,).
