Pre-Practice periods can be extremely valuable in your football practice plans. But you need to use them right.  Pre-practice has been a huge difference maker for practice planning, but it only works when you use it right. That means educating yourself, the rest of the coaching staff and your players on the purpose and execution of the pre-practice periods. This is a great place to get extra work. To steal practice time, without wearing down your players. Non-contact drills, reviewing and reinforcing foundational football skills.  Check out this episode of The Football Coaching Podcast to learn all about how you can use Pre-Practice to make your football team better this season.    Show Links Download the 90 Minute Practice Plan Template (above) and listen to the podcast on how to plan your most efficient practices at https://joedanielfootball.com/2018practice/ Check out the podcast on Practice Planning for Critical Situations Last week’s podcast on Group Drills for your Practice Plan
