In Wisconsin we have only been able to have football related contact for 4 consecutive days between the last day of school and July 31st. This was easy to plan because you just held a 4 day camp.
The state association just approved to increase our days to 5 and make them non consecutive. This new rule provides some extra options.
If you only had 5 days to work with your kids in the summer how would you structure it?
2 day camp and 3 day camp?
4 day camp and coach the kids for a pass league tournament?
2 days of OL/DL and Back/Receiver camp and 3 days of team camp?
There are a lot of options

Can you do them consecutive at all or no?

They used to have to be consecutive, but not any more.
The way I interpret it you could have 5 one day camps if that is what you wanted to do.

WOW....going back to the "mason dixon" line thing... basically we are able to meet with the kids as much as we want once school is over. No padding, but other than that, it is all good.

5 days all summer? I'd coach elsewhere.

Well AJ, if you weren't going to uproot your family to move to another state what would you do?
This is a state regulation so we're all playing by the same rules.
I'd be concerned if we offered more than 10 or so days. In a small school like I'm at we would have MAJOR issues trying to work out a schedule between basketball and baseball. I know kids need to make a commitment, but when you have 150 boys in your building you realize they need to be involved in other activities and if you force them to choose football over basketball then you may be missing your best athlete.

All Wisconsin coaches are in the same predictament, only five days of contact.
beardc,
We are in a very similar situation. At this point, I think our team is going to do a two week camp. One week is either 2 to 3 days of individual groups (small school, small amount of coaches) OL one session and backs another. Then the following week bring the team together for a couple of days.

I would simply do a one week camp as late into the summer as possible to lead into two-a-days.

I would have a 5 day camp in early June to evaluate the talent so you can decide how best to work over the summer.
or
I would have a 5 day camp in early June to prepare for the pad camp we will go to at one of the local universities/colleges.
