Solid turnout yesterday, guys. Eight out of 10 at practice. The only missing guys were at their high school practices. That's cool.
We did a lot of work on zone offense techniques: pump fakes and passing on the perimeter, entry passes to the high post, etc. We also did our usual shooting drills, plus shooting out of the zone offense, free throws, and most importantly, offensive rebounding drills. I like the way the day turned out. We'll keep doing the individual point competition for rebounding on the zone offense drill. When Orion is pumped up like that, it's a very good thing for us all.
It's awesome to see hard work and fun go hand in hand. We looked like the team we were two, three, four weeks ago. I hardly had to do a thing as a coach because everyone was working hard and working together in a positive way.
Today, back to ballhandling drills and we'll finish up our free-throw challenge. Then resume the offensive rebounding drills and hopefully have a 5-on-5 scrimmage with the older guys at the park.
Tomorrow, we visit Boys & Girls Club again. I love this game!
