The document outlines an assignment for students to create either a 1-15 page offensive playbook or a 20+ slide PowerPoint detailing their coaching beliefs and offensive system. It provides guidelines for sections to include on offensive philosophy, running game, play action passes, passing game, and miscellaneous offensive plays. Students must address specific areas, include a minimum number of plays for each section, and have the flexibility to add their own style and philosophy.
