VIDEO: Season Long Practice Planning (Notre Dame)
PRINTABLES: Drill Bank Cheat Sheet ~ Daily Practice Plan Template ~ Weekly Practice Planner
-----
Practices should be planned in 10 minute blocks, start on time, run on time, & be no more than 1:45 long.
Drills should be high tempo/high reps for short periods of time - teach then compete.
To accomplish this coaches must write down a practice plan.
Coaches should have WHISTLES FOR SAFETY & balls, cones, ladders, med kit, emergency contact info, etc.
Conditioning should be built into drills.
