If you learned this, then don't go to that camp again. They should not be putting down anyone based on age at either end!

PS What does it mean to "walk through the drive"?!
What do you mean by don't go to the camp again. They weren't putting me down they were making me better and helping me understand my calls and to understand why I make them.

Walking through the drive is where at L you are near the sideline and there is a drive to the hole down the baseline and you follow the drive so you can see between the players and when the player gets ready to go up you step back toward the sideline to get the proper angle most of the time because a kid who takes the ball baseline near the baseline is behind the goal so when he goes up he will have to jump at angle that will get him a look at the goal and when he makes that jump if you take that one step back toward the sideline you will be amazed at how good of a look you get.
Thanks for the explanation. I hadn't heard that phrase before, and it's interesting.

When I said don't go to that camp again, I meant that if they taught you to feel sorry that you're young, they weren't helping. I thought that's why you had "Sorry I'm young" on your list of things you learned. Did I misunderstand something?
