I know NFL teams do this a lot but has anyone thought about for the 1st scrimmage if you have a school near by where for either for 2 practices or for a whole week, you do a joint practice with a team? Obviously a flipped schedule. One school be doing defense while the other is doing offense.
I only bring this up because in New Jersey we have 300+ high schools, most of them within 15-20 minutes of each other. You have 2 small schools that have numbers on the lower side. To help out with kids getting reps and getting a good look in practice, two schools just practice together.

I grew up in New Jersey, and my junior year, our HC organized a "joint practice" with a nearby high school at the end of July. It ended up being just a scrimmage and the NJSIAA ended up taking away our first scrimmage as punishment.
Our coaches would always say "We have our scrimmage in X days...I mean joint practice"

In MO there have to be 3+ teams for it to be legal.

We haven't done regular practice, but have done scrimmages where we did inside run and 7 on 7 periods as well as 11 on 11 scrimmage

We did this this year. Our scrimmage wasn't of the highest quality so we got in touch with a nearby school and did a Saturday practice with them prior to our first game week. I think we did special teams, OL/DL one-on-one's, WR/DB one-on-one's, Inside, 7-on-7, and team. Our coach had been helping their coach implement a new defense (we're in different divisions) so he helped them with some sticking points on that. It was helpful for us because we have pretty low numbers so our scout team is a big drop off in quality from another team's #1's.
I'm not entirely sure if we were breaking a rule by doing it.
