This year I'm coaching 3rd grade boys for the Wheatland Athletic Association in Aurora, Illinois. Although, the rules don't change too much from 2nd grade, we are adding an eight player onto the field, which will make things a little different for me.
We had our first practice today and it went very well. Most of the kids know each other and played in the spring together, which presents a challenge to one of the other kids. I went to 90 minute practices this season as I wanted the extra time to do a lot of scrimmaging during practice. The enjoyed the extra time more than I thought I would, I was able to do drills longer and had more time for warm ups to start the practice.
I hope the extra time pays off at game time.
