Game Day: Sunday, October 23, 2016

Game day notes

  • Sunday games:  This weekend’s games are on Sunday, not Saturday.
  • Away game reminder:  We play at the Tophat fields in Buckhead. Our game field is at the back of the park (far right side as you enter the parking lot).
  • DH girls:  Some girls are scheduled to play twice. They have a number indicator next to their names:  (1) for their first game, (2) for their second game.
  • Weekly quiz:  We post a quiz each week below the team assignments. Scroll past the roster table for quiz details.
  • Warm-up captains:  Girls whose names are in italic print with a (C) indicator are warm-up captains. They are responsible for gathering their teammates and helping the coach start pre-game warm-up. Link:  warm-up ideas

Weekly quiz – 1v1 defending

You can win a treat after our Wednesday or Thursday practice if you can answer questions about 1v1 defending, and also demonstrate how to shut down space when defending an opponent with the ball.

  1. When should you get goal-side of the ball?
  2. If you get goal-side of the ball on defense, what else do you need to do to make it more difficult for the opponent to score?
  3. When should you try to win the ball?
