I'm interested in hearing how your staffs split up the non-coaching duties that come along with running a football program. Things like setting up the field, loading film on Hudl, matching film, plugging in practice data, cleaning the locker room/weight room. You know, all of the things that outsiders don't realize actually goes into coaching.
I'm noticing that myself and the coordinators are not only doing the majority of the football related work such as scheming, personnel, playbooks, and practice plans but we're also the one's doing all of the small things. I'm interested in hearing how you guys divide these duties.

I want to preface this with some advice: the faster you can learn to delegate the easier our job gets...but it takes time and a certain level of comfort amongst your staff. I have 10 people for 3 levels of FB...and only really have 5 guys I can truly feel comfortable giving important "must-get-done" types of jobs. It is a work in progress...
These are just major duties
Off-season:
WT Training: HC and DL coach
7v7: OC & DC
Fundraising: HC
Other coaches are coaching winter/spring sports
Inseason:
I divvy up the responsibilities but oversee most things.
OC: Opp D breakdown and gameplan, practice plan O
DC: Opp O breakdown and gameplan, practice plan D
OL: Oversee field breakdown
RB: Oversee field setup
DL: JV HC
Players: Ball Bag, Water, actual moving of equipment
HUDL:
-We work mostly off exchanges so anyone can upload
-HC/JV HC/RB coach does film upload after game
Opp Film
HC: ODK, D&D/Hash Opp O,
DC: Formation, Play, Play Type, Result, REPORTS
OC: Run/Pass, Blitz, Coverage Opp D, REPORTS
OL: Front, Stunt, D&D/Hash Opp D
RB: Result, Play Type Opp D
Our Game Film:
Same breakdowns except HC does Stats

That being said, if you ask, some of your younger guys or other coaches may jump at the opportunity to have more responsibility. |

Highest paid. Yeah sure, by about a whopping hundred dollars more for the head coach to the lowest paid assistant.

If coordinators and the HC get paid more-they don't here- it's because they have greater responsibilities and work longer hours away from the field. If I offered to set up the cones for the younger coaches while they watched film and drew up a game plan on Saturday and Sunday I doubt that I'd get any takers. |

One of the coaches I know in our state has the duties all divided and delegated into roles. In order to prepare his coaches to be a hc and keep things fresh he rotates the coaches off the field roles each year. Definitely an interesting way of looking at things. As for our staff we all have our extras and it's fair and equitable. Our hc handles all discipline, parents, and is the last to leave every day. In my opinion those are always hc job.

Our staff generally breaks up duties by having me do everything.

Our defensive staff is "younger" with families. As far as Hudl we just step up. First to watch usually enters ODK and we go from there. If you have the time we do it. It probably ends up being about the same for all of us. We are all the same page and trying to win. As far as practice, we setup our group stuff. If I know I need something for practice that day, I will send my LBs to go get it. If I tell one kid to get something, the whole group better run to get it or help him, or we all run together.

We also set up our own position areas and I wouldn't have it any other way. I know exactly what I need every day and I know exactly how I want it set up. For example, with my DB's I use a grid of cones 5 yds. x 5 yds.. A few years ago the coach in charge of managers had his girls set it up and I had to redo it every day. They were stepping it off and little girlie steps so that the cones were really more like 2x2. The same coach had the girls set up the chutes on offensive days, with a hand shield in front of each chute. Very efficient except that the first drills that we did every day were steps and starts so the very first thing that we had to do was move the shields. It's easier to just set it up myself. |

We're a small school with less than 40 on our roster and a ton of multiple sport athletes (which I think is great). Its also only the HC and myself who are in the building, the other 3 on our staff are lay coaches, 2 of which work pretty crazy hours.
Off-Season: During the school year the HC and I have tag teamed the weight room. He handles all fundraising, conditioning of equipment, etc, I take care of the weight room attendance. During the summer, the HC (who is also our OC), the DC, and myself are all in the weight room every day. This summer will be different because I have taken a summer job which I'll work Monday through Friday from 7 am to whenever my route is done, so I won't be in very much this summer.
In-season:
(I'll start on Saturday, because to me that is the beginning of the week) Bring the kids in at 9am for film and weights, hour and a half tops. While Varsity watches film, JV goes through plays for their game on Monday. As a staff, we go to our HC's house for lunch and break the opponent down on HUDL as a staff, game plan, and practice plan. Normally done by 4 or 5.
Monday: JV game - 2 of us take the team, I call Offense, the other calls Defense. HC and DC stay with Varsity and talk scouting report, then come to the JV game and help on the sideline.
Tuesday - Thursday - Practice from 3:30 to 5:30. We each have a position group (minus one coach who is more of a game planner due to his work schedule) and run that group accordingly. We have an AWESOME manager who sets the field up for us, this is a life saver.
Friday - Game night; HC, DC, and RB's/DB's coach are on the sideline, our 5th coach (the busy bee) and myself are in the box. While we are on D, I look for their blocking scheme and who makes the tackle, DC checks his backer's reads, DB's coach checks opponent's routes. While we're on O, I look for alignment and any stunts/blitzes, OC checks PSDE, DB's coach checks coverage. Post game; when we're at home, kids tear field down, while we get the film prepped for breakdown that night.
Personally, I love this breakdown. Our manager will be a Senior and we have already instructed her to find replacements to train because honestly she makes practice so much easier. Having our 5th coach in the box will be awesome, I have a chart for both offense and defense that I fill out during the game just to reference tendencies and it was difficult to do by myself last year. I plan on having him be my scribe.

The PC answer is: I divide duties as evenly as possible.
The REAL answer is: I divide the duties according to who can get those specific jobs efficiently.
Some guys have more jobs than others...
Some guys have more important jobs than others...
All roles and jobs can change quickly if they aren't getting done right...

Pretty much, we don't have a home stadium so nothing for us to set up.
As HC, everything else is assigned.
Because my OC/DC get extra contract days, they take on more responsibility.
Because I get to set the pay scale for each coach, I gave bumps in salary for who want to be the equipment manager, etc...
