Our current set up is on Mondays we split time in film and weight room for 30 minutes sessions each, and we breakdown the most recent game we played. On Tuesdays we begin with a 45 minute film session of our next opponent...best game tape. Wednesdays we again split time between film/lifting for 30 minute sessions each, and show more of our opponent...usually from a second taped game.
Just wondering how others do their team film breakdown and why so? More time, less time, what-ever seems to work and how...
Thanks in advance
Ron

Monday is the JV game so we start practice with films. We'll watch most if not all of ours and then watch our opponent. We get one film of them. If it is a good game we'll watch the whole thing. If it turns into a blowout and there is really nothing to watch after halftime we are done.
I make 3-4 copies of the scout DVD for our kids to check out during the week also so they can watch it at home.
Also we have a coach who has prep during 1st lunch and eats during second lunch so he lets kids come in on Friday to watch film while they eat as kind of a final "mental tune-up".

Mon-Thurs we watch film for 25 mins before practice. Mon is opponent film for that week (game plan) and the rest of the week we watch our 7 on 7 and team session from the day before
I make CD's with all of the runs and passes broken down for each defensive player so they can watch more at home on their own.
During Offensive practice any starting def player that doesn't play Off will watch film of the opponent for an additional 30 mins each day.
Saturday we watch the night before film for 1 1/2 hours with the entire Def.

For the 1st time this past season, our varsity group came in on Sat mornings to lift for 45 minutes, then watched the game from the night before. It worked out great -- the game was fresh in everyone's mind. It allowed us to quickly review it, learn from it and put it behind us.
The coaches spent the remainder of the weekend working on the upcoming opponent. On Monday's we'd review the opponents films/cutups and go over our gameplan for about an hour. Then we'd go outside for a shortened, gameplan run-through while the JV played their game. We also posted all of the cutups on our team website for the players to review.

Early in the year we do saturday lift and film session. After a few weeks we cut out saturdays and do monday film sessions. we will spend as long as it takes to cover the film in great detail with the kids. I view it as VERY IMPORTANT for kids to learn from the film.

we spend relatively little time with our kids watching video -- we are a co-op situation and the sending school does not get to our school until about 3:45. We have to let them out by 6:00 for a bus so we don't have as much time to spend as some others might.
We will watch some our previous game on Monday - maybe thirty minutes and then run and practice-- and then maybe another fifteen minutes of some cutups on the upcoming opponent before we practice on Tuesday.

We bring our varsity players in on Sat. mornings to watch the previous night's game film. On Monday we watch about 45 min. of the upcoming opponent's films and then do a walk through practice.
I think watching film helps our team a lot. We get a lot of teaching done watching both our own games and cut-ups of our opponents.

we watch film for about an hour on saturdays and then lift. we generally bring the kids in before school to on Tues to watch film and Wed to watch film and lift (school starts at 9am around here). the film sessions last about 25-30 minutes. another thing we do that I like, is about every other week we have a team breakfast in the cafe.
We have a 2 1/2 hour regular practice on Mondays. We love it.. yea, the kids are sore.. too bad.. many college teams play on saturday... watch film on Sunday... give the kids Monday off and then practice full on Tuesday .. what's the difference? Our games are shorter..

Where do you coach in Ohio? I am from Ohio also born and breed in the great Buckeye state.

Another great suggestion from this forum that we implemented this past season was filming the team portion of our practices. We used a school lift in the EZ to get a great shot.
We were hesitant at first, thinking it would take too much time to review and present it to the players everyday. But it really didn't take much time. We'd have an injured player or a coach film it.
For our offensive team segment we'd run about 35 plays. Each play was about 8-10 second long = max of 5 minutes of film to review. As soon as I got home I'd import it into Proscout. In less than 5 min it's in the computer all cut up and ready to review. With the practice script in hand, I'd review each play and enter into the system the name of any player that I wanted to review that particular play with. I'd do this after every Tuesday and Wed practice sometime that night or the next day -- only took about 30 minutes to review.
While the players were getting dressed the following day, I'd have the laptop in hand and take about 1-2 minutes with a player to review their plays in full screen mode on a 17" screen. The software will group the plays together so you didn't waste time going back and forth through video. It was typically about 5-6 players with about 3-4 plays each.
I was amazed how many mistakes we actually missed during the live practice. The mistakes that we would be correcting on Sat morning were getting taken care of during the week -- especially the oline. Also, being able to show our Soph QB what our patterns looked like from the high angle above was very helpful too.
If anyone thinks it'll take too much time to film and review practice, we'd definitely say give it a try. The extra few minutes every week was absolutely worth it.

We always film too. we show just as much of our film as opponent film. IMO, it is just as important to focus on us as them. to me, a power is a power, arrow/curl is an arrow/curl. after the first 1/2 of the season how much is truly really new anyway

I'd love to have the ability to bring kids in before school to lift/watch film, what ever. We start 1st period @ 7AM!!!
I guess I'm getting some answers that viewing your own film is precedent over opponents film. And that you spend approximately an hour "as a team" as your weekly preparation.

When watching film with players, we focus primarily on our opponent's offense. There's limited info to learn from an opponent's defense -- IMO.

What we did this last season (D4 varsity in Ohio)
During 2 a days: we film all team sessions, some 7 on 7 sessions, and I have my OL and DL group drills filmed, we review them during the break.
Saturday: 30 min O review 30 min D / Special Teams review of last night game
Monday: Before practice: me and the OL will watch film of the next oppoenent for 15 minutes while specialist on our field for warm ups, afterwards 20 minutes of Offense, 20 minutes of Defense from most recent game of next oppoenent
Tuesday: 20-25 minutes of Offense Review of 2nd most recent game of oppoenent, 1 special teams focus
Wednesday: 20-25 minutes of Defense review from 2nd most recent game, 1 special teams focus
Thursday: Any clips from 3rd most recent game if we feel it might help, and any other special teams. Around 20-25 mins long
Friday (home games): One of the rooms in our lockeroom we allow the players to just lay out and relax and we let all the game films from the team we are playing play, coaches arent present
Also we send home a DVD with our players on Monday with the last 3 games of our next opponent on it, they return it Friday afterschool. I also sent home a little film study / hint sheet for the OL and DL with the DVD.
The big thing is you need to have a coach who is good at showing film and you must also teach your kids HOW to watch film.
