John Nostrant delivers an all-access look into two live practice sessions as his undefeated team prepares for its next opponent. The first practice is an up-tempo skill development practice. The second, a more focused practice centered on game preparation for their next opponent.

The objective for Nostrant and his staff is to run productive, up-tempo practices and keep everyone involved and sharp. The practices you will see are broken down into a pre-practice segment, stretching, drill work and game prep. Nostrant and his staff teach on both the offensive and defensive side of the field.

Day 1 Practice
Pre-practice work includes offensive and defensive skill work. Shooting progressions, passing and face-offs are incorporated in the offensive skill work. The defensive skill work includes stick handling , blocking, and slide progressions.

After a team stretch, the Fords run through a series of seven drills to perfect ground ball play, transition build ups, scramble situations and more.

Day 2 Practice
Pre-practice work includes shooting and slide progressions on the offensive end and ground ball play, blocking, stick handling, and footwork on the defensive end.

The Fords run through two drills and use the rest of the practice practicing their man and zone offense 6-on-6. These drills are used as game prep by switching up the offense and defense and providing different looks for both sides.

The practice ends with man up and man down situation.

All Access videos are designed to allow viewers from all over the world to see how successful coaches run their practices in a “live” practice setting. All Access videos allow viewers to see the practices un-edited and in real-time. You will see how top coaches run their drills, interact with their team and staff, how they motivate their team, the cue words they use, the atmosphere of the practice and how practices are structured from day to day. Many coaches visit successful colleges and high schools to watch practice. But if you live out of state or out of the country, visiting another coach's practice can be costly. That's why we created the All Access Practice Series of videos -- to bring the practices to you!
