Practice Review:

• Ran
• ABCs
• Stretch
• Lotto - starting to do this drill with teamates so we can get familiar with each other.
• Lane Drill - working on throw to a horizontal player. Rules of cutting are stand for german or straight in and straight out cuts. No bananas or circles. Thrower throws and then gos.
• Dump drill - practicing our dump cuts to the middle of the field. Practice on leading dump and making hard dump cuts. Key is floating disc out to space.
• Huck with communication - cuts deep with option in cut based on communication with a thrower fake.
• Scrimmage: A vs B. B had some unfortunate turnovers, but looked good. A was almost 100% O other than 2 throw aways. Both were deeper leading throws that tailed. B got the final point on a nice throw by their captain.

The A team round table:

This is a new section where I'm talking directly to the A team. Obviously, anyone can read and implement.

• James, Adrian, Tim, Nathan, Will, Norm, Dante, and Taylor - you are on 50 flicks, 50 backhand homework. Post on the BBS when you have completed them today. Focus on chest and above throws, throwing in a low stretch position, and faking before throwing. Everyone else should be doing this.
  
• Tomorrow we will run an O vs D scrimmage.
  
• A team needs to post on the BBS when and why they are missing a practice.
• Everyone needs to develop some ritual they do before entering the huddle or going to the line to play. This ritual will be a point in which all other distractions are eliminated and the focus is on playing. Mine will be a rubbing of the hands and a single clap.
