TIPS

SETUP

• A player leads the warm-up using a routine the team has practiced.
• Before an activity starts, a player explains the rules back to the group.

PLAY

• Players set up the field and manage restarts in teams the coach sets.
• Before the final scrimmage, players tell their teammates their plan, then check how it went.

PRACTICE

• Each player picks one technique to focus on and tracks it over the season.
• Pause and ask small groups what’s working and what to change; let them try it.
• Players adjust the activity themselves when it’s too easy or too hard, with the coach approving the change.
• A player leads the cool-down and closes with one takeaway.

GAME DAY

• At halftime, players share one thing a teammate did well before the coach speaks.
• Teach a quick reset routine after mistakes: breathe, refocus, next play.
