Announcements:
- Read the announcements from Peter's A team post.
- In general, it's a good idea to read the A team reviews, because you'll learn a lot. Reading Peter's blog probably isn't a bad idea either.
- Let us know on the BBS whether you're coming to Easterns.
Review:
- Introduction of the B team and your captains: Sticks (Adam), James, and myself.
- Lotto
- Flying V
- High completion rate.
- Need to concentrate on cutting back hard.
- Continue cut through the disc.
- If you slow down or stop to make the catch, your defender will get the disc.
- Throw for Scores (huck drill).
- Highest completion rate I've seen from a B team on day one. We saw some great throws and catches.
- Throws need to be flat.
- Run straight down the field, not into the sideline.
- Throw down the field to space, rather than throwing across the field at a hard angle.
- Focus on footwork. For righties: do not step with your left foot. For lefties: do not step with your right foot.
- Open-side 45s
- Throws were generally good. Focus on not throwing too hard, keeping it flat, and putting it around your receiver's chest level.
- Cutters sometimes seemed confused.
- Even though we were giving the open side, marks should still be intense.
- Names
- I suck at these.
Overall, we were very impressed by the level this year. We've got a lot of athleticism and great throws. Now it's only a question of team-work and chemistry.
