Bullfrogs Football
Loyalty Program
A program that will be used as a
method of measuring, assessing,
and increasing the dedication and
loyalty each player has to the
football program, the academics,
and the community.
Objectives – Overview
• The goal of the football program is to build better
individuals, not just focus on the football aspect
– Program focuses on the total person
– Promotes citizenship, good grades, supports other sports
and community service
• The Loyalty Program will support this goal by
measuring and reinforcing the player activity and
participation
• The coaches and leadership council will set criteria,
and points, in a number of different areas
– The criteria are not just football specific and includes
academics, community, and football
• The program begins with the start of the second
semester each year (return from Christmas break)
• During the school year the players score points by
completing/meeting these criteria
• Points needed (“standard”) are compared to points
earned
– Player does not play in scrimmage/game until points
needed is met
• The trouble with many plans is that they are
based on the way things are now. To be
successful, your personal plan must focus on
what you want, not what you have.
• You don't practice until you get it right, you
practice until you can't get it wrong!
Focus of Loyalty Program
• Academics – The team is not satisfied with
“Passing/being eligible”
– 3.0 GPA
– Progress reports through whole year
– Coaching staff will develop close ties with
teachers – We want good news and bad news
• Community

No detentions, no disciplinary actions, no teacher
boom-sheets

• All players are classified as ‘Qualifier’ by the
NCAA Clearinghouse
Academic Program
• Academic advocate
– Instructor who is a helper for the football
program, helps players understand the
requirements, works with staff to customize
tutoring, grades, etc.
• Bullfrogs Academic Hall of Fame
– Football players, regardless of level or skill, who
meet the criteria – 3.7 cum GPA, 1800 on SAT, 30
on ACT, honor roll all Jr & Sr year, whatever
• Provide weekly study sessions
– Will arrange Wednesday fall practices for 530-730
– Gives the player an opportunity for team study
hall, tutoring, appointments, meetings, rather
than missing practices
• Require the players to submit progress
reports
– All year, not just during football season
Community
• We want our athletes to participate in other
sports
– They will earn points for participating in winter
and spring sports
• We want the players to participate in
community service projects
– They will earn points for participating in
community, school, and squad service projects
• We want the players to model good
behavior
– They will lose points for having detentions or
disciplinary actions
Football
•
We want participation in all conditioning and weight
sessions
– Players will earn points for attending the off-season weight
sessions
•
We want the players to get stronger.
– Players will get points for the % increase in strength that they
make in the off-season
•
We want the players to attend the spring football practices
– They get triple-points for each day they are there
•
We want the players to attend a summer football camp
– Players would earn points for going to a camp, or a coaching
session. The objective is to get them out to see other players,
other coaches, other ways of playing football
•
We want the players to expand their knowledge of the
game
– Since we want the players to be more fully rounded they
should have an understanding of the game and where they fit
in the football world.
The details of how the Loyalty Program will operate.
LOYALTY PROGRAM:
IN OPERATION
Implementation Steps
•
Tell the players about it – When school starts after winter break,
gather the players and describe the program, what it means, what
they will be doing, etc.
•
Identify the leaders – Have the Sr’s-to-be vote on 6-8 leaders. Have
the Jr’s-to-be vote on 2-3 leaders. Let the players know who the
leaders are
– Hook up each leader with a coach. The coach is their advisor
for the next year
– It will work better with 8 teams rather than 11 (which
matches the line leaders) because of team size
•
Start with the leaders – have a meeting with the leaders to let
them know the specifics of how the program will work and what
the expectations are for them
•
Draft the teams – The leaders draw lots and that sets the draft
sequence.
– They draft all the Sr’s, then the Jrs’, then the Soph’s until there
are no more players.
– As new players arrive they are placed in the next available
slot.
– As players leave the remainder of the team is moved up,
creating a new slot at the bottom. This slot will be filled as
new players join the team.
•
Start the competition
Operation
•
Example: The standard for a given player was set at 200 points. This point
total must be earned by the start of August camp (Double-Days) to meet the
program requirements
•
If they have the points on the first day of camp
(Ex: 210 points)
– They get a PRIDE sticker for their helmet
– They get an “I’m Dedicated” t-shirt
– They get a patch for their letter jacket, awarded at the year-end
banquet
– Note: The points needed will be adjusted for new (first year) players
•
If they do not have the points on the first day of camp
(Ex: They have 185 points)
– They will not participate in a game or official scrimmage until they have
earned the required number of points
– The player will be able to make up the points by extra running at the
end of practice
• We do timed runs at the end of practice everyday for makeups
(timed post-to-post shuttles)
– From the start of August practice until the first scrimmage
there are 15 practices, giving everyone ample opportunity
to make up the points
• Making the standard time earns 3 points
• Running and not making the standard times earns them 1 point
•
If we have an athlete break our good conduct policy it is an automatic 100
point deduction
Bookkeeping
• Each player will have a personal score sheet
that shows everything they need to do
– It will have areas to record their points
– They are responsible for entering their scores as
the year goes by
– Coordinate with their team leader and coach
• Each team leader will have a team score
sheet that they must maintain
– Their duty is to get the highest score of the teams
– They are responsible for the individuals in their
team
• The team scores will be entered by the team
leader into the program score sheet
Academic, Community Standard Points
• Academic
– We strive for a 3.0 GPA
• So the standard is 30 points
• Semester GPA x 10 (rounding up to give the athlete the
benefit) So a 3.82 would receive 39 points
– We want to keep on top of grades
• So we will collect progress reports, at 5 points per report
• Community
– We want our athletes to participate in other sports –
20 points
• 1 winter sport – 10 points
• 1 spring sport – 10 points
– We want the players to participate in community
service projects
• So the goal is 5 points for completing a service project
– We want the players to model good behavior so 10
points for not having any detentions or referrals
• 5 points for semester 1
• 5 points for semester 2
• +20 points each year for Boy Scouts
Football – Standard Points
• We want 85% participation in all conditioning and
weight sessions so .85 times total number of sessions
is the standard
– Example 100 sessions, then 85 points needed here
• We want the players to get stronger. Our goal is to
increase the total weight of the core lifts (squat,
press, clean) by 25% so the points are 25
– Players earn 1 point for each % increase
• We want the players to attend the spring football
practices – 20 points
– 2 points per session x 10 sessions
• We want the players to attend a summer football
camp
– 10 points for attending a camp
• We want the players to expand their knowledge of
the game
– Read “When The Game Stands Tall” (or something
similar) and submit a book report/answer questions
– 10 points

Point system
•
•
•
« Thread Started Today at 8:29am » [Quote]
I have been asked a few dozen times for info on our point system.
•
Here is the short version.
•
Each workout or practice is 2 points. That is, if you do what I ask/tell you to do, you get
your two points. If not, you dont get the points. simple enough. I play favorites...my
favorites are the guys earning points.
•
You can earn extra points by doing more work. For example, when our kids finish their
lift, they can then go run. We use hills or stairs for extra points. How many hills or stairs is
really up to the coach. Maybe your team needs more running.
•
•
•
players earn points for GPAx10
players earn points for honor roll
players earn points for community service
•
players earn points for whatever else I decide.
•
Its just a very simple way of showing off investment.
•
My players keep points they have earned from year to year. By doing this, a kid who has
played 3 years will be far ahead of a new kid in the program even though they are in the
same grade.
Similarly a new player at the sr level will come in with a lower rank than freshman who
have worked out all off season.
•
•
points are good for helping you make otherwise tough decisions on playing time etc. I still
put the 11 best on the field but when its close, I go to the points. When a parent
complains, I go to the points.
•
•
I do a monthly winner
every 3 months I recognize the top guys overall- tees, sweats etc.
•
Is it perfect? no. Is it fair? yes. Do I like it? love it. Do the kids like it? they do now. The
ones who do not like it? oh they are the ones who expected to just show up in Aug and
set the world on fire.
Downey Football Pride Points
•
Pride points show off your off‐season work ethic and dedication to your
personal improvement in the name of our football team. New this year is
our Champions Club, which is a rewards program for dedication to the
football team. Also, equipment and jersey number is still passed out by final
point ranking‐ regardless of being a Junior, Sophomore, or Freshman.
•
Point Redemption Dates
– July 13 Equipment Handout (First pick of locker, helmet/facemask,
shoulder pads, etc.)
– August 13 Pick of Jersey Number

Concept of Operations
• Head coach decides to implement the
program. Without complete buy-in by the
head coach this program will not be viable.
• Identify point events and assign values for
the Academics, Community, and Football
areas
– Examples:
• GPA goal is 30 (3.0 GPA x 10)
• Community service project = 5 pts.
• Off-season weight room: 1 point per session
– Note: This requires the staff to identify all of the
activities for the next year which is an advantage
• Identify awards for meeting the points –
locker, shoulder pads, t-shirt, etc.
• Communicate process to the players
• Begin tracking the points
Building and Maintaining the Football

The player will be able to make up the points by extra running at the
end of practice
• We do timed runs at the end of practice everyday for makeups (timed postto-post shuttles)
–
•
•
•
From the start of August practice until the first scrimmage there are 15 practices,
giving everyone ample opportunity to make up the points
Making the standard time earns 3 points
Running and not making the standard times earns them 1 point
If we have an athlete break our good conduct policy it is an
automatic 100 point deduction
Bookkeeping
•
Each player will have a personal score sheet that shows
everything they need to do
– It will have areas to record their points
– They are responsible for entering their scores as the year goes
by
– Coordinate with their team leader and coach
•
Each team leader will have a team score sheet that they
must maintain
– Their duty is to get the highest score of the teams
– They are responsible for the individuals in their team
•
The team scores will be entered by the team leader into
the program score sheet
Point system

I have been asked a few dozen times for info on our point system.
Here is the short version.
Each workout or practice is 2 points. That is, if you do what I ask/tell you to do, you get your
two points. If not, you dont get the points. simple enough. I play favorites...my favorites
are the guys earning points.
You can earn extra points by doing more work. For example, when our kids finish their lift, they
can then go run. We use hills or stairs for extra points. How many hills or stairs is really up
to the coach. Maybe your team needs more running.
players earn points for GPAX10
players earn points for honor roll
players earn points for community service
players earn points for whatever else I decide.
Its just a very simple way of showing off investment.
My players keep points they have earned from year to year. By doing this, a kid who has played
3 years will be far ahead of a new kid in the program even though they are in the same
grade.
Similarly a new player at the sr level will come in with a lower rank than freshman who have
worked out all off season.
points are good for helping you make otherwise tough decisions on playing time etc. I still put
the 11 best on the field but when its close, I go to the points. When a parent complains, I
go to the points.
I do a monthly winner
every 3 months I recognize the top guys overall- tees, sweats etc.
Is it perfect? no. Is it fair? yes. Do I like it? love it. Do the kids like it? they do now. The ones
who do not like it? oh they are the ones who expected to just show up in Aug and set the
world on fire.
Standard for total number of points to attain
• Academic
– We strive for a 3.0 GPA
• So the standard is 30 points
• Semester GPA x 10 (rounding up to give the athlete the
benefit) So a 3.82 would receive 39 points
– We want to keep on top of grades
• So we will collect progress reports, at 5 points per report
• Community
– We want our athletes to participate in other sports –
20 points
• 1 winter sport – 10 points
• 1 spring sport – 10 points
– We want the players to participate in community
service projects
• So the goal is 5 points for completing a service project
– We want the players to model good behavior so 10
points for not having any detentions or referrals
• 5 points for semester 1
• 5 points for semester 2
Standard for total number of points to attain
• Football
– We want 85% participation in all conditioning and
weight sessions so .85 times total number of sessions is
the standard
• Example 100 sessions, then 85 points needed here
– We want the players to get stronger. Our goal is to
increase the total weight (squat, press, clean) by 25%
so the points are 25
• Players earn 1 point for each % increase
– We want the players to attend the spring football
practices – 20 points
• 2 points per session x 10 sessions
– We want the players to attend a summer football camp
• 10 points for attending a camp
