Hi everyone,
The thread on when everyone starts got me thinking about how everyone approaches their training camp with their teams.
Here is where we are at:
We go 2 practices each day one short and one long.
Practice 1 is 2-3:30 then practice 2 is 4-6. This gives our guys a chance to hydrate and eat a little it also allows our community coaches who work regular jobs a chance to get to the school while we can get some work in. Last year we did a lot of special teams in that initial practice. We are bantering around the idea of using some of it as an active meeting time with our players where we install / walk thru / quiz players get them to teach each other etc. Then do some special teams skills and scheme. That is a bit of a departure from traditionally what we have done. However I don't want to just have the team moving for the sake of moving.
Curious as to how you all approach this time of the year. The rest of the season is pretty static schedules etc but this time early on is important and I am looking for some other ways to attack this time of year. We don't start for more than 2 weeks sadly so still planning away!
The thread on when everyone starts got me thinking about how everyone approaches their training camp with their teams.
- How long are your practices (not including film and meetings)?
- Do you practice 2 times per day or just once?
- How long are your meetings O & D?
- How long are your film sessions each day?
- Does your team still lift weights during training camp?
