Practice Plan
The goal of our practices is to be as efficient as possible, and for everything we do to mimic a game situation. As coaches we never have enough practice time, EVER! As teachers we never have enough time with our students. So it is crucial that every minute of practice be structured and every drill have a purpose. As coaches we will meet routinely after practice and discuss how the day's session went and what we need to rep the next day to make sure that our kids are fully prepared to succeed on the football field. We will practice with high energy and high tempo. We will NEVER walk on the practice field. We will run from drill to drill and get water on the fly. We do not want to be out there for 3.5 hours running 25 plays at team; we will be on the timer and we will hold ourselves accountable to get what we need done on the field. Everything we do will be filmed and if things need to be corrected it will be corrected on the fly or in the meeting room. There is one thing as a coach that I can't stand and that is people standing around talking and wasting valuable time and reps. It's all about making sure drills are structured to get as many kids as many repetitions as possible.
As a staff we will meet daily to evaluate practice film and structure which drills fit into the skills and schemes needed for the week. Every drill will have a name and a purpose. We will have every day fundamental drills and skills, we will build in circuits, and have cross over periods; such as Richochet Drill (option force), Bloc Rec, and 2 v 2. We will be great on the practice field, how we practice is in direct relation to how we play.
