In developing a balanced offensive attack what are examples of time management in practice? By balance I do not mean 50-50 or even 60-40 play calling but the threat of being able to throw on any down. What are ideas for making sure everything gets practiced enough? Obviously limiting the total amount of plays you need to practice is one of them but what else?

We don't huddle on offense in practice. We use our "no-huddle" play calling system. This increases the number of reps we get on offense tremendously.

superpower,
Thats a great idea! Im going to run that thought across our head coach and see what he thinks.
On second thought, going no huddle during our TEAM period would take away the time between plays when I can coach up the Olinemen.

Even though we are no huddle, we still coach 'em up between snaps. We also will stop things to talk and walk through problems as they arise.

most teaching should occur within group & individual settings.
if too much teaching is having to take place during the team portions, we know we didn't spend enough time teaching in our group settings.
in my opinion, you won't ever be "balanced" in your practice time. working the passing game will always require more work than the run game (if you are one of those "balanced" teams). if the passing game - or "threat" of the pass - is a viable option in your scheme then you need to work it quite a bit to become effective with it.

Coach Bob Reade, in his book COACHING FOOTBALL SUCCESSFULLY, suggests using Monday as a passing practice. There are some benefits in addition to repping your passing game: your scout team def gets lots of practice vs. the pass and you should get some good conditioning accomplished as well.

we script our practice plays so we make sure we cover what we want. Also, we are a no-huddle team and coaching on the fly was difficult at first but now it's great and I wouldn't want do it any other way. If problems arise you can always stop and walk and talk your way through it.

I film the team part of our practices. It's only about 30 minutes. I watch it at night, and the team watches it during our film time. That is where we coach them up.

Obviously limiting the total amount of plays you need to practice is one of them but what else? do you mean time wise? I was at a place where we were a oneback inside/outside zoen team. our offensive practice broke down like this 15 warmup 15 min conditioning 45 min special teams 60 min run game 60 min passing game 15 min screen period |
