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
- 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
- Thunder look to the box to pass the ball, as many teams will double on subs

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.
