It took me a while to convert. I'm a believer in music during segments at practice. I wasn't before. We tried it this last week and the kids said while it doesn't make them go hard it helps them keep going hard when they get tired. So what are some good suggestions for music? My players liked everything from the rap I had playing to the Beach Boys to some country. Just so long as the lyrics are appropriate.

Ask them. Then buy the clean versions. Whichever group works the hardest gets to select the next day's play list.

Evenesence, lacuna coil, nightwish, turisas And new wave British heavy metal. Iron maiden.. etc Those two genres rarely swear and its uplifting high energy music |

Our OC has a Polaris that he's rigged up to blare some tunes.
We were pumping everything from ACDC to Robin Thicke to System of a Down.
We just play the unedited stuff, but then again, we are surrounded by corn fields so it's just us and the kids.

I do all of our play list. I ask the kids and coaches. I also recommend adding some crowd noise and school songs. Our ST/DL coach is a huge ucla guy and I'm a big USC guy so I play SC victory and he makes sure the DL tries and kicks the OL butt.
You can YouTube "football hype songs" and that will give u about 30 songs. We play rap, metal/rock, some RnB etc. the kids like it and I actually had our DC tell me he likes tha chaos it causes and it goes well with our offensive tempo.

All of the stuff is edited or radio versions. Even some of the Kevin Rudolph music had some f bombs. But it's all edited now. We did the pandora setting change but some music with explicit language still got through. Lol |

If you are concerned about lyrics, go to youtube and pull up the instrumental versions of songs (primarily hip-hop music). Once I find the video, I cut and paste the link to a video to MP3 converter site that will make the youtube clip into a MP3 music file. I avoid all the lyrical content, and the kids love the beats. I take the files and burn them to a CD or load them to my phone, etc. No sweat.
