Speciality Period during daily practice?

Coachjd--what do you do with the rest of the team while these guys are out warming up?

We incorporate specialty period every day. After a warmup, we go immediately to special teams period (usually 15-20 minutes). In pre-season we do a tremendous amount of individual work (receiving punts/kicks; open field tackling; kicking/punting; long snapping; linemen blocks/rush; holders; etc.). As we progress to the season, we install the various teams and continue this throughout the season. We also continue the individual special team period every Monday. We always start our practices off with the special teams, because we want the kids to know how important it is - not as an afterthought or just pre-practice. Just our opinion.

On Tues., Wed., and Thurs. the first 10-15 minutes of practice (before we stretch) is devoted to specialties (long snapping, punting, FG/PAT). We go from that period right into FG/PAT for 10 minutes. After we stretch and do some kind of take-off drill, we will go into a team kicking period. In this period we will work two phases of the kicking game. Sometimes we will use the team kicking period to work on individual technique (covering kicks and breaking down), but most days it is a team peiod.
On Thurs. (we play Fri. night) we go through a kicking sequence immediately after stretching.
