So sorry for the last second roll-out of this email. Sometimes life just gets in the way. Anyway, since you won't really have time to read the materials that we prepared here is the link to the full explanation of this week's skills. You can refer to this in the future and we will do our best tonight to explain it.
Drill #1 - Go-to drill
Description - Throwing against a mark to an open under-cut.
Detail - First you are the mark forcing the thrower one way. Then you become the thrower and your job is to pivot and fake before throwing to an undefended cutter coming from the other line. At first the cut will be to the open side so the mark should not be threat but merely a presence. Eventually the cut will go to the break-side and the thrower will have to use their pivots and fakes to break the mark. After you throw, you are the cutter for the other line.
Drill #2 - Defensive box drill
Description - Two players, one offense one defense, take position in small box marked by cones. One side of the box is declared the force side. The offensive player then has 10 seconds to cut in any direction, trying to get to the open side. The defender's job is to use body positioning and footwork to prevent the other player from reaching the open side while also maintaining close proximity to them.
Some of you will be coming from a long day of Bay to Breakers so we promise to run you hard enough that you sweat out all that booze and are perfectly fit for work tomorrow. We will also answer all your questions about our Club Summer Academy. See you soon.
