Love having themes for workouts and practices.
Yesterday we worked on the cross-step and did drills going from gap help to close out and close out to gap help. These are the things that are highly repped in a game
Train how the game is played!

Don’t jump to your gap you need to sprint to your gap. Cross-step is key in doing this!
