I agree that it is important to be exposed to the weather you will play in, but you also need an indoor facility to get in the amount of reps and practice time needed.

If you practice outdoors all week in severe cold the team will be worn down.

Or a wise HC would have them practice outdoors for 45 minutes less time each practice, then do the fitness portion indoors (non contact) where the team has a great facility to get players fit
