Week 8 Discussion: Game Planning Procedure



My weekly game planning would start immediately after the previous game was completed and everyone has left the field house and the stadium. I would typically watch my recording of Friday night hits so I could get an idea of whether or not my opponents for the upcoming week won or lost and get a look at their big plays for the night.



Saturday

I would open up the field house at 10:00am to allow the trainers to set up for any injured player who my need some medical treatment from game night. I would have Coaches meetings starting at 2:00pm. We will up load game film and grade out the game. We will watch our upcoming opponent’s film. I will have the offensive coordinator/ defensive coordinator and the position coaches break up in to teams and discuss the game plan for the upcoming week. We will leave after a team meeting and setting up the bulletin board for upcoming week.

Sunday

Coaches meeting starts at 2:00pm to allow everyone to attend church and get to the field house to get ready for the upcoming week. The offensive team will break down what they viewed from the game film and how we can attack their defense. The defense will do the same. We will then come together and draw up our game plan and how we will prepare the players. The player will arrive at 4:00pm for weightlifting and conditioning with will last approximately 1 hour. We will then break up into offense / defense meeting and discuss our game plan for the week hitting on corrections that need to be made from the previous week to get ready for our upcoming opponents. Once we’ve addressed those opportunities for learning we will come together for team and watch our opponent’s game addressing their strengths and weakness and how we will attack. At 6:00pm we will dismiss to allow our guys the opportunity for personal time.

Monday

The coaches arrive at 6:00am the players arrive at 7:00 am for morning meeting, film, and protein shakes and bars. We will upload the team study guide of the opponent to everyone’s chrome book to allow them time to view our game plan and strategy for this week. At 7:55 am dismiss so everyone can get to class.

All coaches on the field whistled up and game clock on with I-Pad in hand and ready to go by 3:20pm (Unless their week to supervise locker room until all player out). Players have to be on the field and ready to go 3:30pm. (If arrive at 3:31pm they are late). It is understood by everyone we coach like champions and practice like champions, we expect to win like champions so discipline is a major part of that and our player understand that and excepts the discipline in our program. Team stretching starts at 3:31pm, everything on the hustle. 3:45pm individual position drills with position coach. 4:00pm QB, RB, and WR team dills, OL and C team drills, 4:15pm come together for offensive team.
