A hurdling start to motivate us

Yesterday evening, the U12B team faced Crestwood in our first game of the season. Right away, Crestwood challenged us and pushed the boys to their limits in scoring multiple baskets allowing them to gain a strong lead within the first quarter itself. Although our defence became stronger in the 2nd half, we were unable to shorten the score gap. Regardless of the outcome, this was the first time the boys were coming together as a team and it had them understand the importance of communication, driving to the net and how defensive positioning is crucial. I truly believe reflecting on where we could strengthen our plays in practices would motivate and encourage the boys to persevere and look to the upcoming games with a fresh mind.
