Most screens include an On Screen Help feature to guide you through the game.

Practice Mode
Practice Mode gives you the chance to hone your skills in actual game play situations. In practice mode, you bring a 10 man team onto the field for Offensive, Defensive or Special Teams practice. Bring in your favorite team and transform yourself into a virtual winning machine!
You can even create your own team of custom players! Bring in a custom player and rev up his attributes by running him through skill-enhancing drills. Save a custom player's enhanced skills, then bring him into Preseason mode! You can practice tackling, receiving, kicking, passing—any situation your 10 team members may face.
Once you select Practice mode, you will see a screen featuring each player's controller, and to the right, the team you will bring into training. Each player in turn presses LEFT or RIGHT on the CONTROL PAD to scroll through the available teams until the desired team appears. Initially, there will be spots for 5 custom teams. Any custom team is available to any player, as are all 30 NFL™ teams. Highlight NO TRAINING if you don't wish to participate in training. Press the START BUTTON to select a team. If you've chosen a custom team, you will then see the Custom Team/ Player screens. Otherwise you will go straight to the practice category screen.
In a Team practice, player(s) choose which team to control in any of the many available practice scenarios, all of which can be repeated until mastered. You'll be using the actual NFL™ players on each team.
In a Custom practice, you can create up to 10 custom players. Perform successfully in a practice event to increase a custom player's attribute level. The difficulty at which you play determines the level of attribute increase, with Very Easy contributing some increase and Very Hard a substantial amount.
Creating a Custom Player
This screen is where you create or modify your team of 10 custom players. The first player position to appear is the quarterback. Press LEFT or RIGHT on the CONTROL PAD to scroll through player positions. Press UP or DOWN on the CONTROL PAD to highlight the various option boxes and the Y or B Button to cycle through each associated option.
You can set which hand a player throws with, which foot he kicks with, his skin tone, number and uniform. Note that once a uniform is set, all team members will automatically share that color. View On Screen help for details on how to set your options.
If you choose not to create a player for one of the positions, the computer will supply a default player. Once you've set or modified your custom team options, the team is ready to bring into practice. Press the START button to get to the Category Screen.
The Practice Category Screen
Practice mode is broken up into three broad practice categories: Offense, Defense, or Special Teams. Each has several option branches that open up still richer areas of practice options.

To jump right into Offensive, Defensive or Special Teams practice at the default settings, press the START BUTTON. If Quit is highlighted, pressing START will bring you to the quit screen, from which you can view a Custom Progress Report detailing the attributes status of all your custom players.
