Team practice max minutes Topic

Does anybody have any research or facts showing diminishing returned on applying too much team practice? I've heard anything over 25 min on either team or individual will only grow as fast as if it was 25 minutes. I found this to at least seem true for individual practice time. I'm not sure on team practice.  What do you think? what do you know? 
Thank you forum members.

I've read that from pretty experienced coaches, but no facts of my own!

I am interested on ind. practice capping at 25 though, I have never heard that but it would make sense.

No. It's just diminishing returns, as in - each additional minute will have less leverage than the last one.

But it does still count?  For a very vague example: Minutes 1-25 give you a full "minute" but then like 26-30 gives you 4/5 of a minute, 31-35 gives you 3/5, and so on and so forth?

Yeah I was just using an example, lol.  I didn't think I had the correct numbers.  That is interesting though.  I thought that once you put 26 minutes, then it was still counted as only 25 minutes.

Nope. It still counts. It just counts less.

Nothing against the first two posters specifically, but this is why taking things off the forums as "fact" can often times be very detrimental.

But I was corrected, isn't that what the forums are about?  Maybe I'm wrong but I usually come here to look for help.  Grant it, not all information is going to be correct, but there are enough guys that have been around here long enough that if they see something said that is a mistake (like you so pointed out that I did), then they will correct it.
