Hi Guy’s, Is there a way of saving the videos I’d like to use or add them as favourites for future reference
Very Good ideas and simple example. Good to see coach getting players to self evaluate.
Nice fillers for young players … could also use for more advanced players too. Keeps the game fun
Ben’s games with kids are very informative
Really love what they had to say, I’ve been trying for years to become more games based as opposed to drill focused practice, as was my own youthful experience. Thank you.
