A diversely experienced insurance specialist in Poughkeepsie, New York, Daniel G. Hickey Jr. maintains concurrent responsibilities as the CEO of Roosevelt Road Capital Partners and the CEO of The Hotaling Group. Outside of work, Daniel Hickey Jr. coaches linebackers on Our Lady of Lourdes’ varsity football team.
Linebackers are essential to the defense of a football team. They must be able to assess offensive strategies to determine the best plan of action, and they must have the strength to hold off the linemen on the opposing team.
Effective linebackers must learn how to take cues from the players around them, which will help them predict the moves that will come next. In honing these skills and others, linebackers should engage in several important drills during football practice.
Trash can drills, a warm-up exercise, focus on the movement of a team’s linebackers. Coaches line up three trash cans and have their linebackers weave around each one as they move forward.
At the end of the drill, the players catch a football. Learning to shuffle between these obstacles teaches linebackers how to maneuver quickly through the players on a field.
