One average, how long do you guys spend on the practice field? Time on to time off.

In the first month we are probably out on the field for 3 hours after that we are out for 2 hours and fifteen minutes typically.
If the season is at a point where we are out of the playoffs then we might have a few 2 hour practices but we never go less than two hours.

Two and a half hours Monday-Wednesday; hour and 45 minutes Thursday (day before game).
Every study I've ever read (35 years) has said that after 2:30 you reach the point of diminishing returns and that that should be the maximum amount of practice time. During two-a-days minimum three hours recovery time in between.

Pre-season we go 2.5 hours and 2 hours on double days. In-season we are never on the field more than 2 hours, but we do have pre=practice meetings every day.

During two-a-days minimum three hours recovery time in between. theres a law of diminishing returns on number of practices too. Ie, the first 5 days you rep power have a much different effect then the last 5 days you rep powers.

To further this question a little bit: Does the amount of time change if you are having to practice both sides each day?

To further this question a little bit: Does the amount of time change if you are having to practice both sides each day? All of our kids practice both ways, coaches coach both sides. If we were able to specialize perhaps we would cut our onfield time down. However in Michigan we don't have spring football and limits on what we can do in the summer, so we need all the practice time we can get.

field practice should take an hour in a half......but that should leave time for class room/film study.

We're out of school at 2:35. Practice starts at 3. Either video for 1/2 hour or on field. Go for 2-2.5 hrs after that. If we have video then we are off the field by 545-6, otherwise its 515-530. We hold that schedule M-W, Th is 1:45-2 hrs in pads.
Because we share the single stadium with 4 other teams in our city/league we will have games on Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. This season we have 4 Saturday games, including 1 Saturday day game (in beautiful San Francisco overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge). Last season we had 2 Thursday games, 2 Saturday games, and 6 Friday games, but they were staggered badly so we went Th-Sat-Th-F. Makes the it pretty tough to keep things consistent.

School dismisses at 3:30. Pre-practice routine starts at 3:45 (passing, catching, punting, kicking, deep snapping, DL work) Practice starts at 4:00. On Tuesdays (WORK DAY) we typically go until 6:30 early in the season and taper off to about 6:15 later in the season. On Wednesdays we finish around 6:15 early in the season and taper off to 6:00 later in the season. Monday we do film study, defensive game plan walk-through, and conditioning. Thursday is pre-game practice, and we usually are done by 5:15ish.
