Another Great Practice Yesterday

We had 15 players show up for practice (including 3 upcoming freshmen - YAY!) and 5 of our young men respectfully notified Coach Joe they won't be able to attend. At Throwback, we call that a Winning Day.

Thanks to our Alumni Coaches...

Max Garfinkel
Kyle Hall
Cam Riddell
Shane Soghomonian
Charles Fianko

They provided one-on-one instructions which yielded significant improvement and successes by the end of practice.  This was the kind of coaching and individual attention we wanted for our boys when they participated in college recruiting camps, but didn't get.  Kudos to our Throwback coaches and community for "paying it forward."    

Coaching Highlights... 

• Individual FOGO (Face Off Get Off) Instruction ---FOGO
• 1-on-1 training on defensive body position 
• Introduced the 2-3 offense
• Worked on defense slides and clearing
• 6 vs 6 scrimmage to end practice.
