How to teach Trips Right Victor · C Right

By FlagPlays · Updated October 17, 2026. Practical starting points for volunteer coaches. Check your competition’s rules before using a play.

Left and right refer to the diagram. Route depths are illustrations; adjust them to your field and players. Check eligibility, running and rush rules.

When to try it

Teach one formation and repeat it. Practice the short outlet as deliberately as the downfield routes; change only Y’s route for the Victor audible. The audible word can be anything your team remembers.

Quarterback's plan

Find an open teammate and a clear throwing lane. The short checkdown is a successful choice; no receiver is chosen before the snap.

Teaching cue

Get into open space where the quarterback can see you. Checkdowns are part of the offense, not a failed deep pass.

Common mistake

Forcing a deep throw, hiding the outlet beside or behind the quarterback, or assuming a checkdown is always open. Adjust route depths to your players and avoid collisions.
