How much video do you watch with kids during week

30-40 highlights and lowlights from Friday plus 15 of top 4 runs and top 4 passes with any weird adjustments. Top front and top coverage all on Monday.

30 minutes a day on Tuesday and Wednesday. Anything extra send to the individual or position group.

We don't meet on weekends so we watch film from the previous Friday on Monday after school. We watch about 15 minutes at max. I think they begin to drift off after that. We make playlists of our top O and D plays that need to be reviewed, go over it quickly and move on. Tuesday we watch film of our upcoming opponent. Again we have playlists of their O and D, watch it for 15-20 minutes and that's it. We ask the players to watch on their own at home and of course the good ones do. I'm not a big film guy for the kids, I'd rather they gain a brief knowledge of what to expect then work outside on executing against it.

We watch the entire game we just played, and none of the opponent. The kids have things they submit to us on our opponent as homework that is due to me in my classroom on Monday morning.

We are JV so we run it a little different than varsity due to time. We can only hit 3 days a week here so they use Monday as film/conditioning.

Coach,
What does this homework look like? Position specific? 

What do you have your OL look at?

With the players we watch the whole game on saturday mornings broken up by ODK. During the week the team watches about 30 min per day before practice. We will sometimes watch some before the game friday.

I make it mandatory to watch 2 hours of film on HUDL on their own. We Coop with two other schools so it would be impossible to watch film of the game without drastically reducing our practice time. Plus it is difficult to watch film with High School kids, in particular at a small school. They can watch our game or the next opponents, doesn't matter as long as they are watching film. Position coaches will mark up our game.

If I was at a larger school or had a football period where I could teach the players how to watch film and not watch the game, I would do it everyday, our game on monday, the opponent tuesday through friday. 25-60 minutes a day.

About 45 minutes of last nights game on Saturday. About 30 min of the upcoming opponent (mixed in with a scouting package) on Monday.

Ive been on programs that do 1 hour of film a day (M, T, W, Sa) in an attempt to mirror the college environment; but it mostly ends up being a waste of time.

During the week we will watch 45 mins of our opponent on Wednesday. And on Saturday we come in at 10am, run them, then start film watch from 11am-3pm. We split up D-Line and LB's in one room with the DC and Offensive Skill positions in another room with the OC. Then we switch, OL/TE with the OC, and DB's with the DC. This works out for us because all of our players play both ways. Each session is two hours. We watch every play, 3 different angles (Press Box, End Zone, and Drone View).

Stopped watching our game on Saturday Mornings, not enough time to break it down with meaningful feedback. We send clips to specific groups throughout the weekend on positive/negative plays. I hold coaches accountable to sending them, I browse the section of hudl that shows you who watched film and for how long but don't really do anything to hold players accountable. We watch their main Offensive plays for roughly 15ish minutes on Monday, Defensive alignments and stunts/blitzes for 15ish on Tuesday. Those playlists are sent to players as well and we keep telling them what to watch. That's it, we make it available and make sure to represent what we see in film on the field during scout, has worked out for our kids so far. I'm sure some coaches would like more but realistically we were getting minimal out of team film sessions, find bigger returns on the field.

Previous game on Saturday to make corrections. Monday morning before school we go through the scouting report that is done through the HUDL presentations. After practice each day we watch 20-30 minutes of the opponents offense and defense. We also make cutups that are shared with the players for them to watch at home.

Monday we put our last game to rest and pull clips from the upcoming opponent while tying it to the scouting report.

Tuesday-Thursday we have position-specific film that varies.

I'm a DB coach, so my guys get the passing game cut-ups with notes on Monday/Tuesday. That's their hudl homework. We meet if we have time, but typically I get it done via homework.

Kids come in Saturday and we watch the game from the night before by position. Monday we watch 20 minutes of opponent film. Tuesday and Wednesday we watch our practice from the day before for 15 minutes, and then watch 5 minutes of our opponent. I require our OL to watch 10 additional minutes of film a week. I create a scouting report as a hudl playlist with 10 clips and 10 slides each week. They must watch that before they come in Monday.

A great way to handle the "kids won't watch film" excuse is to make it impact the entire group. If we haven't watched 10 minutes of film by Monday's meeting, we will do updowns or bear crawls after practice. Do this by position. We usually have 1 or 2 the first week. They police themselves after that. You don't have to watch film, but you also don't have to do any updowns. I frame it this way... I tell my guys we have 50 updowns every Monday. For every guy that watches 10 minutes of film on Sunday, we will cut 5 updowns. That way film is a reward. I let them know who watched film and got the number reduced, and who didn't watch film. They encourage each other pretty well after the first week. 

How do you track if they watched?
