"A 4-3 a 3-4 or a 4-6 are the best defenses that you could run for any league. My personal favorite in the 4-3."

I firmly disagree. The Gap-Air-Mirror Defense (GAM) is the best youth defense by far.

To clarify something in the previous answer, there is no such thing as the "4-6". Its "46" which was the number of the middle linebacker who first played in it. The 4-3 requires kids to play linebacker. Having responsibility for a gap and a receiver is too complicated for kids. The GAM only has one such player. Teams have gone from 0-8 to 8-0 using the GAM. Arguments against the GAM are that its weak against the pass and off-tackle. The book about it addresses the adjustments needed for the off-tackle, and ALL defenses are weak against something. As for the pass, kids can't pass very well, and they're even worse when you only give them 1-2 seconds to throw while pressing the receivers. Easier said than done when it comes to passing against the GAM

For the sake of full disclosure, I am the son of the guy who wrote the GAM book. But that doesn't change its success. Dont take my word for it, check it out yourself... Gap-Air-Mirror Defense.

Well depending on how old they are... if they're maybe 8 or 9 maybe more of a running offense and if they're 10 or 11 maybe a more balanced offense.
