Linebacker recruiting for girls' flag football
Read keys, fill gaps (in 7v7), and coverage from the second level. The hybrid position — half run-fit, half coverage.
Show coverage drops
LBs in flag spend more snaps in coverage than tackle LBs. Hook-curl, flat, and middle-third drops should be on tape.
Add flag-pulls in space
Open-field flag-pulls separate recruits. Capture wide-angle so coaches see your angle to the ball.
Verify your shuttle + 3-cone
Change of direction is the LB-defining metric in flag. Hardware-timed at FlagPlay Verified Showcases.

Frequently asked: Linebacker recruiting
Are linebackers needed in flag football?
Yes in 7v7 + most 5v5 sub-packages. LBs read the QB + drop into coverage as often as they fill gaps.
What is the difference between a flag LB and a tackle LB?
Coverage responsibility. Flag LBs spend more snaps in zone + man coverage. Athletic profile skews toward safety, not traditional MIKE.
Can I play LB and offense both?
Many recruits do. Tag two-way film clearly, lead with the position you want recruited at.
