Do any teams split their practices O/D everyday?

I assume you are talking about teams where kids learn an offensive and defensive position (one platoon).  I would think that almost all two platoon teams would practice o/d everyday--otherwise it would seem that you loose the advantage two platooning gets you.  

I know one platoon teams that have "emphasis" days, but practice both each day.  

Shoot 20 is good for a 2-way team. I only get 10-15 tops! I feel your pain I also came from a big school that gave me 40-60 minutes.

Last year we did that where we did both during a practice and I hated it. This year we are having a offense day focus and defense focus day. When you only 10 minutes of indy one day and you had to install all new line blocking schemes every week you didn't get much drill work done

I would ask to keep the OL off ST beesides x-pnt if possible and see if he would let you steal time there.

30 years as HC, we practiced both every day.

But except during Two-a-Days/Pre-Season practice the time spent wasn't equal, i.e. one day would be more on Defense, next on Offense, etc.

we do.
with a small squad i think it helps mix things up and keeps them fresh. 

our plan right now looks like this: 

Offensive Period
10 min -- Team Takeoff
10 min -- Blocking (Shoulder Skills, etc - in Position groups) 
20 min -- Indies 
10 min -- mixed Group OR Team - depends on the day

Defensive Period
10 min -- Tackling (in position groups) 
20 min -- indies
10 min -- Mixed Group (7s & OL vs DL)
10 min -- Pursuit
10 min -- Team 

we are pretty much on the dot out of there by the 2 hour mark (helps to have alot of coaches this year) but you have to be really effective at time management.... a few things: 

1) Practice only 'On First Sound' cadence
2) Dont Shift or Motion in practice unless its a dedicated drill - use Team time for that
3) Correct mistakes in 3 words or less, dont defend your doctoral dissertation on the field 
4) have water bottles at your work out area (at the back of wherever your lines form)

those 4 things alone will save you a ton of time. 

Team periods are for mixed cadences, indie drills are not. 

It shouldnt make that much difference if you are tight on your transitions. If you had all day Tuesday say 2 hours, to do defense and of that you had 30 minutes of Indy; then I am sure with 1 hour each on Tuesday and Wednesday you could get 15 min for each day (equaling the same 30 minutes). This is assuming you basically just take what you were doing previously and divide it in half for each of the respective days.

6 of one, half dozen of the other.

yes we do

i am a big believer in it

i would rather have some time every single day

then a ton of time just 2 days 

i break up the practice days similar to how i discuss install schedule on my blog 

only rather than 3 day split, i cut day 3 in half, and add it to day 1 and 2 

so now i have the offense divided into 2 days 

monday is game plan, new install, fix anything that is really broken 

tuesday is O day 1
wednesday is O day 2 

thursday is pre game review  and we are ready to roll 

I dont work EVERY drill during indy, i work drills relevant to what schemes i have that day 

essentially a gap scheme day, and a zone day 

if it is a power/counter day i am working down blocks and pulls... not bucket reach block steps 

lets me divide my time more easily 

and then you have to be stealing extra OL indy time (i will use for pass pro time) during special teams 

in most cases no reason to put fat kids on anything but PAT so we have divided up every ST unit into position coaches... 

i am the OL coach for PAT, and I am free in every other ST
that way I can coach the big guys 

none of my OL will be on KO/KOR/Punt so that is an extra 15 minutes per day i get with them 

Fantom
How has that worked out for your team. We are switching to that format this year.

I've never been at a HS team that platooned so I have never had practice any other way than splitting time between O&D. Warm up, indy, group, team kicking, flip to the other side and repeat, conditioning. Try to get things done in the 2 hrs you might have. I have detailed past schedules if anyone wants a copy.

You would get an hour of individual time??
