reflections from da comp

hey girls! here's my reflections from nat champs.. last comp ): (or maybe not.. hmm.)

Problems that we had:
-> Lack fitness
can consider sprinting with guys next time, it helps.
-> Basic boat skills
hmm, night slots, or during breaks in training, or games when we're not playing. there are many times when we can actually practice stern turns, dips, bracing, ball handling etc.
-> Passing: Know your range, control your passes, hand-to-hand.
Land passing! Take the initiative to organize passing sessions like last yr? Perhaps every wed&fri morning? STUART RETURN ME MY BALL!
-> Defense: Zone very weak, too late in taking opponents, communication
-> Attack: Lack coordination, reaction too slow, never reset early, never look out for other options
Takes practice + fitness. Psycho yourselves so that you remember all these AT ALL TIMES
-> Lack mental readiness
Psycho yourself before every match, remind yourself what to take note off. Talk to your teammates, encourage & remind each other.
-> Confidence
I guess it's similar to the previous point.
-> Man marking: Never apply what we know (i.e. constant movement; move across each other, so that can shield opponents away from each other; know when to spread out & support)
Yep, this needs lots of practice+fitness too. Can do during night training like the other time too.


Hmm, next yr ntu 3-on-3 cannot send junior team leh! Unless we recruit a few more girls now, and then they can train with cheryl and join in jan. if not, lack in training leh. =/ should befriend yr2 & 3 junior girls naooo!

Train hard, and i'm sure the girls team will become better and better! (: It's hard to find a team of 5 or more that start off at the same time. Since you girls all joined together, if you all progress as a whole, the team will be able to perform next year! try to get as many intake next yr haha..
