Dear Force Parents,

Our boys played a great game last night as the workouts with Jason are starting to show. The defense is getting better, we are moving our feet getting in front of our man and talking out loud. Even though the margin of victory was close 37-33 they made three 3-pointers that were pretty lucky and two breakdown layups so in all the difference should have been a 17 point win.

We hope as parents you have noticed in these games that our team actually runs offensive plays, most SEYO teams do not. We have many of them for both man and zone, we are working with the boys so that they recognize these as they are playing so they can adjust and find the mismatches or open player for an easy basket. Remembering that some of these plays are very advanced and that we need to be sure that all 10 players know them shows how we are a better team when it comes to tournament time.

The biggest thing that we are trying to show our boys is that we don't want anyone of them to be stuck in one position, we want them all to be able to play multiple positions so that it makes playing defense against us much more difficult. You might have seen that as Shaq and Sunny are on the wing in some plays, Reed and Trevor moving to the post and Christian to the point. There are other changes we have been making with all our boys and the best thing is all of them keep asking questions which will make them better players.

Practice is at 5:30-7:00 p.m. at Marina HS this Saturday.

Thanks,

Mark
