The first day is always weird for everyone; new faces, new
challenges, and many other unknowns. Parents, players, and coaches all feel it
in the beginning. But it all ends up working itself out. Players get to know
each other, parents get more comfortable with the routine, and coaches gain a
better understanding of the team’s strengths and weaknesses.
Once the stress and pressure of the first practice is over
there are a few days of relief, then the focus moves towards anticipation of
the first game.
It’s all part of the process we enjoy so much.
First day of practice was an eye opener for many of our new and younger players. It is always fun to watch as their young minds take in all the information.
