First day of Practice 2010/2011

Hi Girls,

Monday, November 1, 2010 is the first day of official basketball practice. I look foward to seeing what our skill set will allow us to do on the court this season.

Our goals are always:

1- Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together.

2- Play great defense. Defense wins championships.

3- Create offense by stealing the ball from our opponents whenever possible.

4- Pushing the ball down court and looking for the easy basket before the other team has set its defense.

5- In the half court offense looking inside for a shot close to the basket first and back outside if nothing is available.

6- Getting to the foul line and making the shots and not fouling the other team. We want to score more points from the foul line than our opponents attempt.

7- Be a great rebounding team. More baskets in girls basketball are scored on offensive rebounds than any other way. Last season we did not get our share.

8- Never ever be out hustled.

9- Always being prepared.

Thought: Failing to prepare is preparing to fail. John Wooden, UCLA Coach 11 national championships.
