Anybody run nontraditional practices. Talking limited scout team or even no scout team at all and anything else that would be considered no traditional.

We do extremely little team both on O and D. It’s hard to get a good look with our makeup. Instead we try to handle it in groups so we can isolate things better. We also used a full padded practice the day before games instead of walk through.

I am curious if anyone has read "Game Practice System" by Rich Hargit...and planning to implement or have implemented (spring ball) his practice style. One of the things that stood out to me was indy time at the end of practice, only for the people who needed more individual time. This is decided throughout practice.

I might ask that question "does anyone do something non-traditional that works". There are a lot of dumbazz things going on at practices I wouldn't want to try. Generally, when something at practice is done by an overwhelming percentage of people, it's because it is effective.

He has some really good ideas. We’ve dabbled with 8-on-8 this summer, but haven’t gone all out on anything else yet. I like a lot of his concepts.

For one thing it makes it seem like indy time is punishment. Mostly, though, I believe that reps=habits=good technique.

We’ve used it a lot of the stuff and I’ve coached at a camp that used it. As far as Indy time at the end it works a little different. Early on Indy time is at the beginning. Then it transitions to Indy time at the end. If you’ve seen the whole format it makes sense. The idea is you’re going through different group and team periods. The group and team periods are a little different than normal. They identify things they need to focus on and then spend that time in Indy working on those things. If they feel good they’re out of practice. If only a few need stuff those guys get extra work and the rest leave. If guys need to work on different things then those guys work on those things. It’s not for everyone and it is different.

We practice offense, defense, and special teams every day except for Thursday. 55 mins for O & D then 10 mins for specials. Most of the starters play both ways.

We ran a pretty uncommon offense so i didnt bother setting up the scout D, i just told them to align in their base and lets get after it. The only time i would alter things is if there was something that i wanted to target, like if vs our spread set they aligned with really soft CB's, or a weird box look.
One uncommon thing ive heard about (note this would not be for a varsity team) is one team near us didnt have their JV team learn an offense, instead they would be the scout team O for the Varsity D and they would label the scout team plays with their terminology and then they would run the opposing teams Varsity offense during their JV game. So depending on who they were playing the offense would look extremely different. I dont think it worked out extremely well, however, i think the varsity coaches didnt necessarily care if the JV team won or lost.

Something we dabbled with for a couple of years and really refined this past season is we don't have long periods dedicated to one thing. We have a small roster with lots of two-way players so we are constantly changing between O/D/ST. So in a fifteen-minute section of practice, we may run our favorite run play for five minutes, their favorite run play against our D and then work a specialty.

Kids waste a year, what happens if someone gets hurt and a JV kid has to play?

Kids waste a year, what happens if someone gets hurt and a JV kid has to play? I think the purpose was to focus on fundamentals, so they would work basic drills, but wouldnt ever work real scheme. And i dont know, where we were at JV kids didnt play varsity (where im at now apparently kids can play on JV and varsity).
