Coaching Points:
Let them learn through playing
Incorporate “Mini Plays” within the motion to highlight the best assets of your attack
Teach the 5 skills and remind them how simple it is
Keep the high players high and the low players low if you have to!
Teach the players how to “move their defender”
Assign player guidelines within the motion if necessary
Use this motion as a hard press to goal or use it as a time to let your attack catch their breath - it’s up to you! This motion has what it takes to be either.
