Start with the outcome

Name the practice, set the duration, and write one objective that a coach can evaluate at the end. The time budget should serve the objective rather than simply fill the schedule.

Build useful practice blocks

Use warm-up, drill, install, team, situational, and review blocks consistently. Titles should tell assistants what is happening without a separate meeting.

  • Put transitions and water into the time budget
  • Attach the exact play when installing a call
  • Use block notes for coaching points and equipment
  • Keep the plan readable on a phone
03

Run or print the plan

Use live practice mode when you want the current block, clock, and completion state on a device. Print the plan when assistants need a paper copy or when device access is uncertain.
