What does your summer practice look like?

M, T. Th 6-8:30 PM June 16 until August (except for the dead week around July 4). Lifting, running, football. Also we have one 7-on-7 tournament in July.

June is dead period in our state, nothing but open weights. Starting in July we go every day 4 hours a day (weight room and practice), as well as passing league two nights a week. The second week of August starts our camp, 4 hours a day MWF three hours TTH

We "practice" from 5:30-6:45/7pm on Mondays after weights during the summer. Weights from 4-5/5:30 on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday.

Never understood why people have kids come in for 16-20 hours a week.

I know.  I've just never figured out why people are that insecure.  My first year as a HC I was kind of that way.  Had weights for an hour and a half every day minimum, 2-3 hours of practice once a week.  Played like 6-7 7on7s.  Hated every minute of it, but thought I "had" to do it.

This year we'll probably at most be around 4 1/2 hours of football activity a week.  Play 2 7on7s.  Only have one Friday of the whole summer with anything on it and no Saturdays, Sundays or Tuesdays.  

I just don't care anymore what anyone else does.  What we do works for us and I'm good with it.  

1st 3 weeks of June we go M,W,F from 8am - about 9:30am. Weights, Agilities, and Conditioning.

Last week of June and 1st week of July is mandatory Dead period. We have a local gym that allows the kids to workout for free if they choose too. We don't make this manadatory or even check attendance. We just tell them its there if they want to go.

July we start with an overnight camp to refocus everyone and begin doing actual practice in helmets.
July includes one 7 on 7 at our school. We also do a lineman challenge that same day so it replaces the workout for that day for everyone. The rest of July is M,T,Th,F from 5-7. Lift and condition first hour and then O/D/ST practice for the next hour. We alternate days for what we practice so the kids only have to focus on one part of the game and don't have so many transitions.

Week of August 1st we start full pad practice, but no 2-a-days because we are already in school at that point.

We go three night a week in July for 2 hours in shells. If we do any 7-7, which is unlikely, we do it on a night we have a work out. Pretty much like OTA's until camp starts. Of course our state association which allows us to use helmets and shoulder pads in the summer for work out has now started a three day heat acclimation period before camp starts, because I guess those three days will make a difference when you have already been working out 3 nights a week all of July...

Our state doesn't allow practice during the summer, only weights and running. We go Monday thru Thursday from 8-10:00am. 45 minutes weights, 45 minutes speed/agility. 30 Pass Hull( Our Offense vs Our Defense). Coaches are not allowed to coach 7 on 7 teams in Texas, so we quit going to tournaments. I like this much better.

I agree

Monday, Tuesday and Thursday we lift, do conditioning and some skill work from 8-11 am. We will have one or two 7 on 7s a week at night. We go to team camp for 3 days (during those 3 days that's all we do). We take off the week of the 4th and the week of the coach's clinic (both mandatory dead periods in our state). We do a "minicamp" for a couple of days (two hours each day) as soon as school is out and sometimes we do another couple of days at the end of July right before practice begins on August 1. That's all we do on those days (other than lift). That is enough. They do have lives outside of football.

I'm not sure that it's such a good thing. It's just that much longer that the kids have to be hot and uncomfortable. 

About 3 hours a day. 4 days a week. Lift an hour, run an agility an hour, practice an hour. About one 7 on 7 a week. One big 7 on 7 tournament a year.

We do not go in pads at all, although I'll admit I don't know if this is our HC's preference or if it's state rules.  Other than handshields, no contact in the drills.

No limitations in coaches per state rules, but due to work requirements of the coaches who don't teach, 4 of us--out of 7--are normally at the workouts. 

And, yes, it's June and July, although we'll take a little time off around the 4th of July.
