Thursday March 17th (Practice)

This is the Fayettevile Force's final practice before the season opener against the Carolina Speed on Friday. This practice, which  is usually reffered to as a Walk-through practice, because no one is making contact and it is meant to correct any last mistakes in the game plan. Today was my first day on the sideline with the coaches and getting to observe how the coaches interact with the players. One thing I learned today was that as a coach yes you have to show your authority but you must still give your players respect, especially at this level seeing that alot of the players are the same age or older than some of the coaching staff. My hours were 6:00pm-9:00pm
