If we keep this up, we are going to turn some heads at state cup. That last bit of shooting / finishing drill with the goals was, as Jackie stated, “This is INTENSE!”. That’s the whole idea, because when you get to state cup, every game will be INTENSE. If we practice INTENSE, we’ll PLAY intense.
Here are the updated teams scores after today. The first number is the points scored in our Thursday practice and the second number is the points scored today.
Team A – 21 + 38 = 59
Team B – 14.5 + 24 = 38.5
Team C – 14 + 54 = 68
Team D – 20.5 + 50 = 70.5
Team C went from last place into 2nd place. No one is out of it as long as you keep working hard.
I think we all need to give Erin a HUGE pat on the back for juggling 448 today at practice. That’s what I call concentration! I can still remember when we started juggling a couple of years ago. Let’s not forget that way back then, everyone started from the same place – at zero. If she can do it, so can you! Just get outside and practice. You can’t use the weather as your excuse anymore.
I hope we can carry the enthusiasm from today’s practice into our games on Monday and Tuesday.
Don’t forget that tomorrow is Mother’s Day. I know you will take the time to do something special for your Mom. Giver her a big hug and show her how much she really means to you. Happy Mother’s Day Mom’s.
