1:Stand with your feet shoulder width apart.
Your feet should be no more than shoulder width apart to ensure an even distribution of your weight. Check your feet and adjust as needed.
2:Squat down.
Bend your knees until you are squatting down. Try to imagine that you are sitting on an invisible chair or toilet.[1] You should be squatting down low enough so that your thighs are parallel with the ground.
Make sure that you keep your weight evenly distributed on your feet. Do not place too much weight on your toes or heels or you may lose your balance.
3:Bend forward.
You should bend over until your stomach touches your thighs and your back is parallel with the ground. This will give you the best advantage when snapping the ball. At this point, your body will look similar to a letter.
4:Reach your hands out in front of you.
To complete the long snap football position, reach your hands forward as far as they will go and touch the ground in front of you. This is where you will need the football to be when you are ready to snap it.
It is important to extend your arms out as far as they will reach to ensure that you can snap the ball the longest distance possible.
