Practice started yesterday. As head coach, I always feel a bit overwhelmed this time of year about all that we have to get taught before our first game. But as I tell how players...how do you eat an elephant??? One bite at a time! When there is so much to do that it you don't know what to do first, you just start biting off bits of that big ol' elephant. So that's just what we did today in practice.
I was very pleased with our progress from day 1 to day 2. Of course we have a long way to go, but the team is really focused on what we're asking them to do and they're working hard. They're fun to coach because they keep it fun, encouraging and helpful for each other, while at the same time they compete hard. We have a day off from practice tomorrow and we'll come back on Wednesday and look to keep improving.
