Morning. FIL gets released from the hospital today. He's going to need a few weeks to recover, which means MIL needs 24/7 care. BIL is going to be sorting all that out today, in terms of what that means. They are going to have a live-in caregiver service or they are both going to a facility.
 
morning all, last day of work for a bit, we have thursday off and I decided to take friday off and have all next week off, so, probably my longest vacation in a long time
 
Think we actually might get some decent storms today. Normally I'm pleased but I wanted to get our last Coach Pitch game in. Also going to look at used van wife wants that I got loan approval for. Supposed to storm at that time through the game time.
 
@Guy Incognito what are some soccer drills to work on with Lil W. Her first year & we've never played competitive soccer.
Obvious basics are dribbling and changing directions. Here's a bunch of solo drills that she can do.



Passing/kicking: get her used to using the inside/outside of her foot and not the toe. A lot of kids use their toe too much. See the passing/receiving section of this video:

When you get to a point where she's trying to kick for distance, position of the landing foot becomes more important, as you have to get further back and allow yourself a chance to get "under" the ball more to generate lift.
 
After a month and a half, I FINALLY got my truck back from the shop. Son of a bitch that was painful. Just in time to move on Monday

Awesome, that gets me a start with her. My cousins from Florida played but their schedules & ours are crazy.

Supplies are pretty cheap. Dick's usually sells a cleats/shin guards/ball combination. My daughter hated the stirrup shin guards, though, so we wound up getting her the slip in sleeve ones, and have been using them with Tank too. Basic ones on Amazon are cheap. My daughter has used the same pair for the last 3 or 4 seasons, and would be on her original pair still if she hadn't lost them. Also, you see a lot of cones in the videos. Cones are the easiest things to get and use, have her dribble to/around cones, pass balls through cones, etc. Pop-up goals are also handy.

Yeah we have the ball & net. Not sure if the cleats & shin guards are here. If we move flag football to the ball diamonds, we won't need as many cones & I can use those.
 
Coach kids first flag football games this weekend.

Trying to get the rules down.


No wildcat.

No stiff arms

No laterals across the los

I can do flea flickers.

Need to see if Center can be eligible after he hikes the ball

Nope. They took that out years ago.

Once you get to where they allow you to blitz you can do most of all of those other things.

We line a kid up right behind the center and in front of the “Quarterback”. C hikes it to the kid standing right behind him, who then flips it to the QB.

Now your QB can run.

😉

@Red_Alert the manual did show a jet sweep play. So if I happen to coach against Bo. We won’t run anything but that
 
I know its too early but working on using both feet is always a good thing
