By using this particular method it is also very easy to incorporate the backs into the blocking scheme. When using the back to the side the ball is going, in order to have a backfield man block a particular defensive player, we merely add two zeroes to the number which has been assigned to the defender, and the back gets this man. As an illustration, if we want our halfback to block the #3 defensive man, the halfback’s block is 300; and the #4 man, the block would be called 400. Several complete illustrations would be as follows:
300 Block—
| Off-E | #6 |
| Off-T | #5 |
| Off-G | #1 |
| C | #0, N/T off-side |
| On-G | #1 |
| On-T | #2 |
| On-E | slam #3, then #5 |
| H.B. | #3 |
