Description:
Coaches often ask: Is the Flexbone just a formation or a complete offensive system? In this video, we answer that question by exploring the roots of the “Flexible Wishbone,” how it evolved into the modern Flexbone Triple Option, and why it dominates by outsmarting the defensive line. You’ll also learn how to take your team to the next level with camps, online training, and the Triple Option Football Academy—whether you’re coaching 11-man, 8-man, or 9-man football.

Before the 2010 season, Falls City HS (TX) had never won a regional championship in school history.
In 2010, after running a camp with Lou Cella as Camp Director, Falls City HS (TX) won the Regional and State Championship for the first time in school history in Texas while scoring 680 points in 15 games.
“The biggest thing for us is that it gave our kids the opportunity to work together in our offensive system before the season started – the techniques and fundamentals they learned was so big, so was the team bonding, and so was having an outside source (Lou Cella) teaching them – this was invaluable.”
– Mark Kirchhoff, Head Football Coach
