Lotsa conditioning, defensive drills and offensive station work in the early days. Fast/Secondary Break drills are a constant. Team stuff builds in over time.Once full practices are under way, what's a typical day like for our players?
October 2nd was the first practice last year . . our first game was Friday, Nov.13
The NCAA allows for practices to begin 42 days before the 1st game IIRC. If, we have our 1st game this season scheduled for Nov. 11th, then we could and likely will start practice on Fri., Sept. 30th.
You can have 30 practices in those 42 days, so it really depends on how RW wants to space them out. IIRC, I don't think we used all 30 last year.
I vaguely remember that coming up a couple of years ago when we played a couple of exhibition games in the Bahamas (or one of those places). The rules allow a certain number of practices before such exhibitions but Roy didn't use all of them. I never understood why. We lost one of those games.You can have 30 practices in those 42 days, so it really depends on how RW wants to space them out. IIRC, I don't think we used all 30 last year.
