Some late training tips for players, parents, and coaches:

Players:

  • Keep all your gear and water bottle in or next to your bag.
  • Make sure your ball is clearly marked with your name.
  • When gathering up balls, help each ball find the right person rather than running all over looking for just your ball.

Parents:

  • Please don’t shine your headlights on the field. Though you may think it would help, it negatively affects vision of players and coaches.
  • Make sure balls, bags, water bottles, jackets/sweatshirts, etc. have the player’s name on them.

Coaches:

  • Don’t let the darkness sneak up on you.
  • Have players find their balls before sunset.
  • Use the last several minutes for individual ball work or fitness.
  • Bring a flashlight or headlamp to help with cleaning up.
