practice plans

Drills mapped out

Practice plans are structured outlines for training sessions, detailing what skills to work on, drills to run, and how time will be allocated.

Coaches create practice plans to ensure productive use of limited training time: The basketball coach posted the practice plan in the locker room.

The term appears most often in youth and amateur sports contexts.
