Active Stretching
- Great parts of the weekend:
- Clears: Diagonal passing, butter killed them.
- Rides: we locked off their middies, our attack was vicious, transitioned to 3-3, middies subbing were perfect, killed their butter
- Seal picks with fast dodgers led to lots of goals
- Points of improvements:
- Defense clearing needs to get the stick in their weak hand or face dodge to the weak side, once in open field look to pass, someone needs to maverick towards ball
- Sliding needs to lead with stick follow with body
- Need the whole team to get their hands on the sticks of the guy passing or shooting (Ryan and Rowan did this well)
- Thunder look to the box to pass the ball, as many teams will double on subs
- Scoop through ground balls (Soren did this well)
- Need to get an attack at X on the slow break
- Individual: Aiden shoot 3/4 to bounce less high, Xavier no more slap checks, Michael head up on the clear and get the stick to the outside

Team Defense
- Pinch scheme, get on hands with pokes or lifts on the pass
- Drill: Offense moves the ball, defense pressures and pinches, look to lift check
Rules of Sliding - when you initiate a slide it needs to be done with the proper technique
- Slide to where he's going, not to where he's been - anticipate the path of the driving attackman
- Breakdown on arrival - be ready to play solid defense - knees bent, back straight, balls of feet
- Stay in front of the Attacker - the on-ball defender is forcing the player down the side of the field, stay in front of the ball carrier
- Slide man stays on the ball - Once a defender initiates a slide, he must go, and once there he is now responsible for that man, the original defender recovers to the crease
- Original ball defender recovers to the crease to pickup open man - if the slide is effective in making the attacker peel away the original on ball defender should recover to the crease
- Lead with the stick, follow with the body - After leading with the stick, you’ll follow through with your body lowering the shoulder to make contact.
