Bye Week

We had one last year and we basically stuck to our Monday-Wednesday script. Thursday we had some extended 1s vs 1s situational stuff. 3rd and longs, 3rd and shorts, red zone, etc. Competitive, but reasonably short on that Thursday.
This was a scenario where we didn't know for sure who we were playing the next week. Spent a little time on each potential opponent during the week, mainly just focused on us on the Thursday, and took 3 days off leading into the next week.

I have done a normal Monday. Lift, condition, indy, group. Just didn't do install or game plan. So we got done a little earlier.
Tuesday off
Wednesday was Tuesday but added in install if needed
Thursday was Wednesday.
Friday off - if you have athletic period we would watch more film, etc

I setup our schedule to have Bye week the same week as labor day. That way we didn't have to fight kids missing practice and everyone go to enjoy the long weekend. As someone mentioned, great time for pictures, worst day of the year.
Film on Tuesday, maybe a short lift. Practice.
Wednesday have a more physical practice with some scrimmaging.
Thursday, practice.
Friday off
We had football class, so we could do film, lift, stretch during that.
If we had a full week, we would give Monday off.

We practice Tues, Wed, and Thur of our bye week for 2 hours each day. This year for the first time in my career the bye week fell the Friday after Labor Day, so we were going to have Labor Day off. BUT our game the Friday before Labor Day got stormed out and rescheduled for Tuesday!

When I was coaching, I'd have maintained the normal schedule and probably given them Friday off.
In retrospect and knowing my teams usually peaked before the post season, I'd give them Monday off, have my normal Mon practice Tues, regular but lighter Tue/Wed practice on Wed/Thur, Fri off.
Time off, away from football is WAY, WAY underrated in today's #Grind football environment.

I haven't watched a HS football game in person, that my son wasn't involved in, in 6 years.

I have never had a bye week when coaching, but we had one every year in college, and I think we always ended up doing like four full-padded practices with one in just shoulder pads and helmets. It drove us nuts because it didn't feel like a break in any sort of way, it was actually more/heavier practice than a normal week.
I think now being a coach I can see the philosophy behind it, but I do think if we had one we'd have to lighten up just a little. Maybe a walkthrough type practice on Monday with T/W/Th being full go, and either a lighter Friday or give them Friday off. Definitely a good opportunity to mix in a little more film and stay in the weightroom.

Monday off Tuesday correct mistakes from week before, but shorter than usual practice. Wednesday and Thursday full go on install for next opponent. Friday off

Lots of guys here in Tennessee take week off if it falls on there FALL BREAK week. I was part of a staff that did it once and it didn't not hurt us like I thought it would … actually refreshed the legs and team. When I 1st heard of it I was 100% completely against it... but after doing it and seeing others do it, I don't think its terrible lol guess I am getting soft in my old age.?!

I think it would cost you some players for sure... or they would just miss. So many people plan trips on fall break that attendance has always been issue when we have practiced

We made about $700 on fundraiser but everyone of our kids that was there got a huge meal and the owner gave applications to 5 of the 8 kids that actually worked. The D coaches game planned while they were there and had a good number of students from my classes go see our guys bus tables. We had 6 kids at game day visits, 2 of them at University of North Dakota. Got to watch them put 72 on the board.
