What's inside

Page 1: Cover and how to use the template. The 10-minute rule that changes the season.

Page 2: A blank weekly practice plan. Two sessions, four lines each: date, focus, drill list, job for parents. Print it. Fill it in.

Page 3: A filled example for U10 baseball, week four of the season. The exact level of detail a parent wants and a 10-year-old needs.

Page 4: A starter list of drills by age band (5–7, 8–10, 11–12, 13+). Steal what fits.

Why we made it

Most parent complaints at the youth level come from a perceived lack of structure or fairness. A written practice plan, shared with parents 24 hours before the practice, disarms 80% of those.

Most coaches don't share a plan because writing one feels like extra work. It isn't. It takes 10 minutes a week and saves 10 phone calls.
