I've got a team that will start competing in late august and finish up the third week of October. When is the time to start intervals and repeats? I'm thinking the first week of august. They're doing base stuff now but nothing more than a one 800m at race pace once a week after a steady run.
Everyone's definition of intervals is different.
I would wait until September. Are you able to have contact during the summer?

If you're asking so you can do off-season training on your own, then it depends completely on what kind of training schedule your coach is going to have for you during the season. If you have any contact with your coach, talk about it with them.
