There's lots of things to consider. First, there's the venue - where will you practice? What constraints are there on time? Daylight? Second, how will the venue support what you'd like to do - are there enough nets? Hoops? Is the court, field, or diamond in good repair and maintained?
Once all that is decided - what day and what time will you practice? Is it the same each week? How long will the practice last? This must all be balanced with your availability, but also that of your assistants, and also all of the players (and parents). Fun stuff.
Getting the practice thing right is the first step toward a good season. Practice is important, for sure, and you need as many of the players attending as many of the sessions as possible. It's also ideal to select a place that will suit your practices.
For the athletes under 8 years old, it's likely sufficient to have 1 practice per week, lasting between 30-60 minutes. This is where planning, preparation, and execution come in to make your practice all it needs to be.
Good luck.
