Do no more than nine sprints per workout. Do three sprints with focus on the head, do three focusing on the torso and three with focus on the legs. If the athlete tends to have more difficulty in one area, increase the number of sprints for that area while decreasing the number of sprints for the other areas. <br><br>3. The distance for each sprint should be 10-50 yards with recovery time being 15-20 seconds (usually the time it takes to walk back).<br><br>4. The speed for each sprint should be to 3/4 speed . . . never full speed for learning purposes.<br><br>5. The Sprint System should never be considered a part of the athletic conditioning, only a part of the learning process.<br><br>6. The Sprint System should be done 2-4 times weekly in-season and off-season, in groups or individually. Feedback from a coach, parent or teammate is important. <br><br>Concentrate on one area of the body for each sprint (head, torso, legs). On the last sprint of each set, combine the eight points to achieve a full speed sprint. Time and record the last sprint of each set in your logbook. Try to break the record each week. Practice this system two or three times a week when the body is FRESH. Following these guidelines and EVERY athlete can improve speed dramatically!<br><br><br>__________<br><br><br>THE BFS 8 POINT SPRINT SYSTEM<br><br>The BFS 8-Point Sprint Technique System singles out 8 specific points that must be looked at when assessing an athletes technique. These points are as follows:<br><br>HEAD<br>1. Head - The head should be level and <br> unwavering<br><br>2. Eyes - The eyes should be on a target <br> straight ahead.<br><br>TORSO<br>3. Back - The back should be upright and <br> slightly arched.<br><br>4. Arms - The shoulders should rotate vigorously <br> with elbows fixed in a 90 degree angle. <br> Emphasize thrusting the elbows back. <br><br>5. Wrists - The wrists should simulate a whip <br> action as the shoulder rotates back.<br><br>LEGS<br>6. Legs - Initial leg action is to lift forward then up. <br><br>7. Feet - The feet should make the initial plant <br> directly under the hips not out in front of the <br> body. The toes should be kept up don t let the <br> foot drop.<br><br>8. Knees - On the follow-through or end of the <br> leg drive, the knee should fully extend.the next.<br><br><br>COMMENTS <br>BY DR. GREG SHEPARD<br><br>Coach Glenn Cecchini is my kind of coach. The man is passionate about his program and his players. He and his wife Raissa coach together and share this passion. They make a wonderfully unique team. Coach Cecchini is adamant about setting off-season and in-eason goals. He records everything. His goals iclude a variety of strength goals with a Dot Drill and 60-yard dash goal. The goals set for the 2000 baseball season were indeed ambitious but the Barbe High School team had alrady achieved their off-season goals by mid-January and then some. <br>For example, their varsity player team goal was to get their 60-yard dash to under 7.0 seconds. By January, the average time was 6.8 seconds. The reshman goal was to get times in under 7.5 seconds. No problem . . . 7.2 seconds. All team members complete the BFS Dot Drill in under 55 seconds with most in the mid 40-second range. The first tme they did this drill, no player could do
