The Fumble Pro Has Helped Teams Find Success by Reducing Turnovers

As we wind down our first calendar year selling The Fumble Pro, we have been reflecting on how very fortunate we are to have had teams give us the opportunity to contribute to the success of their seasons. We believe wholeheartedly the one stat in football that truly matters is the Turnover margin. The majority of the time, the teams who win the turnover margin win the game. "You can't beat yourself!" 

For proof of this we don't need to look any further than one of our first schools to purchase The Fumble Pro, Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish went from -15 in 2011 in their turnover ratio, and unranked, to +9 in 2012 and the current #1 team in NCAA FBS. We have found many of our clients like the nationally ranked #1 High School Manatee Hurricanes and their Coach Rob Frazier, can already see the value The Fumble Pro has when it is regularly incorporated into their team practices. 

It is the number one tool to reduce or eliminate turnovers by building muscle memory for all players. As Running Backs Coach Lamar Owens of the #1 rushing offense in NCAA FBS Georgia Tech states, "We stress fundamentals and attention to detail. The Fumble Pro is a ball security tool that will reinforce the attention to detail required to be successful. The Fumble Pro has helped us develop of a culture of ball security." 

We will start next year out by showcasing The Fumble Pro at the 2013 AFCA Convention in Nashville.  We are extremely excited to see what new teams we will have the opportunity to work with in the coming year.

The Fumble Pro Used to Help Quarterbacks Eliminate Turnovers Using Pocket Presence Drills

In a recent trip to Southwest Florida to visit schools and check in with current programs using The Fumble Pro, I came away with a couple of positive impressions. One, teams love it and it has proven to make an actual difference in their turnover ratio for the season. Two, teams have found new and different ways to incorporate The Fumble Pro into their everyday practice routines. That includes weight room, pre-practice, and practice. They taught me several different quarterback and receiver drills I hadn't even thought of.  In receiver drills, the Fumble Pro was used to increase grip strength and the Wide Receiver's ability to catch with their hands and bring the football to their body. We will have new videos loaded up to our website that demonstrate the Wide Receiver drills soon.

The thing that most caught my eye was quarterback coach Josh Vogelbach, of Sport Specific Training in Ft. Myers, using The Fumble Pro to teach quarterbacks increased pocket awareness. He found unique ways to incorporate it into his football drills. He stated, "the muscle memory the quarterbacks gained throughout training made a direct impact throughout the season." One of his quarterbacks, a NCAA Division 1 prospect, made giant strides in reducing turnovers after taking hits in and out of the pocket. These drills can be used for players at every level - Pop Warner, High School, College, and the NFL.

We want to hear from you.  Let us know how you are using the Fumble Pro at your practices.  Even better, send us a video and we'll make you famous on our website.  Please continue to check out our videos page as we update it with new drill ideas.
