Creating Individual and Practice Periods That Translate to Game Day

Coaching is not a copy-and-paste function. It requires an understanding of what your players need for a particular week and a particular game plan so that they are prepared for the plays you run, the looks the defense gives, and the situations that you will face. In this episdoe, Matt Drinkall, Co-OC/OL Coach from Army West Point, Kyle Segler, OL Coach at Louisiana-Monroe, and Brendan Walsh, OL Coach at Colgate University share valuable ideas for focusing your individual time and practice periods on the aspects of your scheme and technique that specifically be used in the next game. These three coaches share their approach to drills and practice periods to create the most effective way of preparing their players. While the focus is on offense, and particularly offensive line, the ideas shared apply across any position. We look at everything from a process for drill selection, to a focus on details, and creating an effective walk-through.
