3 Football Drills to Become a Better Quarterback

As a quarterback, you have arguably one of the most important positions on the field. Along with leadership, a quarterback must be accurate, agile, and calm under pressure. With IMG Academy's How-To football drills, our coaches focus on the proper training needed to perfect your stance and throw to make those critical connections on gameday. 

In this video, you will be introduced to three football drills to become a better quarterback. Watch how student-athletes perform each drill with instruction focused on proper leg and foot positioning, balance, and great body control to improve accuracy and drive the football. Each of these three drills is broken down to provide an overarching tutorial for quarterbacks to incorporate into their game:

• Static Base Drill
• Movement Base Drill
• Figure 8 Drill

Learn the Static Base Drill that focuses on the “power position” with the back leg, helping to deliver the football with velocity and torque. The Movement Base Drill is focused on creating muscle memory for the “base position” with the legs and feet, and the Figure 8 Drill highlights the importance of controlled function mobility.
