Aiden's Week — A Quick Recap
A short read on the week that was, so nothing gets lost between sessions.
A good week. Two wall-ball sessions and a game, and the off-hand is starting to look real — he took a left-handed dodge in the game and finished it. The shooting is coming; he still winds up and rips it over the cage when he gets excited.
- The off-hand — off-hand wall ball and dodge-and-finish. Way more comfortable going left than a month ago.
- Shooting — corners, not cannons. Better when he's set, still rips it on the run.
- Off the ball — V-cuts and give-and-gos. One goal off a cut after a pass — exactly the habit we're building.
The left-handed finish in the game. A defender forced him left, and instead of forcing it back to his right he went left and buried it. A month ago that's a turnover.
- Keep the off-hand reps first, before he's tired.
- One game where he commits to picking a corner on every shot.
- A pre-game both-hands warmup before Saturday.
One thing to keep an eye on: when a rep asks for his left, does he do it, or sneak it back to his right? And does he pick a corner, or just rip it? Those two are the tell for everything else.
