About this video

Part of the reason Steve Belles' Hamilton High School teams put together a 53-game winning streak and three state championships is the screen passing game. In this session Belles details the philosophy and strategy behind five specific screens, shows how they punish a blitzing defense, and uses game film throughout to illustrate the keys that make each one work.
