There was a post <poll> about this earlier this week but I was wondering who would be interested in having a "program development" clinic? If there were enough coachs in oklahoma or somewhere close I would love to do something like this where I could pick the brains of some of you guys. Could this be a topic for whiteboard clinic as well?

I like that idea Coach - I would be in. I think though many of these guys have some great "program development" stuff already on here or would be willing to share.

I would be interested in that as well. I live in south central Kansas, could be worth the trip.

Maybe we could get superpower and some of the others as well...... Maybe even Brophy to travel to the great state of Honkiehoma and give some sound advice!!! Maybe even coach Jeff could come and give us his take as well!!

Count me in. I actually have a presentation ready as I spoke at the KSHSAA Coaching School in August. My topic was CREATING AN IDENTITY FOR YOUR FOOTBALL PROGRAM.

Why not post your ideas on the board and let everyone participate?

it would make sense....I mean how many programs lose because of X's & O's vs just bad program development?
To me, the HOW is more important than the WHAT.
Shoot, just a clinic on "How to manage players", "team-building", "how to start a booster club"......etc makes more of a difference than how many blitzes you can run out of a 3-3

I agree wholeheartedly! Let's set it up. Brophy, are you close enough (assuming it's in OK) that you would come? Whoever sets it up, let me know if there is anything I can do.

The X's and O's seems to be the easier part of the program persey, its the public relations and other points of programs that seem to be the more difficult parts to deal with. I know a few coaches that would probably be interested as would some of the other coaches on here too. We could also do an Online version of this too!

Ok, I am looking to start developing my own program and have lots of questions and what better to do than to pick the brain of several coaches. I know that off-season is a crucial part of the “program” so I will start here.
Also goals as an important part of the program as well. I see myself as having short term (season and program goals) as well as long term (season and program goals). Some would be such as continue to improve quickly and efficiently with plays and installation of new plays as far as some of the season goals as well as improve on the win/loss percentage.
I know that when I played we didn’t necessarily have an off-season workout program or off-season program for that matter and I didn’t realize how beneficial it was until the last several years. So I know that this will be very crucial in the development of a successful program. I know that “what works best for you” philosophy is what most coaches implore but I also know that a lot of coaches “beg, borrow and steal” from others as well. I know that this will seem like a bunch of questions about “help me run the right offense” but it is really just wanting to tap in to the vast amount of knowledge that is here on the board. When I was in school we did the normal 3 sets of 10 on bench, 3 sets of 10 on squat, and 3 sets of 10 on deads, but I know that there is a lot more to off season conditioning.
For starters what is your off-season philosophy? Do you break it down in sections like winter, spring, summer?
Like during the winter months what is your lifting requirements for your players that are not playing other sports and do you require those that aren’t participating in other sports to lift?
Do you use BFS, USAW, or self developed and if so how did you determine what lifts, ect you wanted to use? Why do you use it and what is its benefits of using it?
During the spring when do you start running your plays again or do you wait until summer to do this? Also do you start toning down the amount they are lifting or do you amp it up?
What is your requirements/goals for the summer? Lifting/participation/ attendance/ ect?
I know that some programs start their padded off season practice shortly after the last state final for the last sport here in Oklahoma. Do you start immediately at this point to start running your plays and hitting or do you start drills at that time and save the last half of “spring practice” for contact time? Also with this do you continue to have your players lift or wait until after “spring ball” to pick back up on lifting.

this really does seem like the most important aspects. Maybe huey or other asministrators can put otgether some sort of feature on this site to help with this. As a young coach who is trying to turn a program around i have a ton of questions.
How do you get attendance up in the weight room in the offseason? How do you get kids to wanna come to your school instead of going to other schools?( ex. middle school recruiting)
How do you get pop warener teams involved?( this will help above question)
What are vest ways to fundraise and gether support from the community?
