Practices
How often do the teams practice?
Most teams practice two or three times per week
before games begin, and then one or two times per week. However, each
coach decides when, how often and how long the team will practice. A team
may not require more than three team meetings (games and practices
combined) in any week, although a team may hold additional optional
practices.
What days/nights/times do the teams practice?
Each coach decides when, how often and how long the
team will practice. Before games begin, most teams practice one or two
week nights plus one weekend day. After games begin, most teams eliminate
one or two practices, or change them to optional practices.
How long does each practice last?
Most teams practice about one and one-half hours each
practice, though some practice for longer or shorter periods of time.
What does a team do at practice?
Most teams practice a variety of skills at each
practice. We encourage our coaches to use a variety of drills in order to
make practices more fun and more effective.
Why does our team practice so much?
Each coach decides when, how often and how long the
team will practice. Please discuss the subject with the coach, and consult
the board if there is a problem.
Why doesn’t our team practice more?
Each coach decides when, how often and how long the
team will practice. Please discuss the subject with the coach, and consult
the board if there is a problem.
