Practice-Ready Plans for Youth  Coaches

With over 15 years of coaching youth sports, I’ve worked with athletes from 3-year-old blast ball all the way up to pre–high school baseball, and from flag football through tackle football before they transition into school ball.

Early on, I saw coaches — myself included — scrambling for resources to run efficient, high-impact practices in the limited time we had. That’s when I began micro-segmenting practices to maximize reps and focus on the most important skills.

After years of searching online and never finding exactly what I needed, I started piecing together ideas, learnings, and my own on-field experience to build a practice system that works. For the last 7 years, I’ve been refining and improving that system to help youth coaches get more out of every minute on the field.
