Can somebody run down a good step by step for pre game activities. I went to my clinic a month ago but I was a bit hazy on the details and my partner was just about clueless last night. I did the best I could but I would like somthing I can really study. I know on lower levels alot of times they dont do pregame but I want to. My goal is to be down state varsity in 4 years. If i'm gonna do that.. I need to learn to do this right.
Thanks in advance.

Hey Mike check your PM's....
As far as a "pre-game", I assume you are talking with the players/coaches, not your partners? For the pre-game meeting with players/coaches, keep it real simple. Here is mine if you are interested...
1)Coaches, is everyone properly equipped according to the guidelines from the IHSA?
2)Players/coaches, are there any questions on any floor markings, or anything else regarding the court?
3)Captains, you are the leaders on your teams, your teammates are going to respond to you, we appreciate your help ensuring that everyone displays impeccable sportsmanship at all times.
4)Have fun!
I don't like to get "floor captains", to me that is antiquated...if a team sends two captains to the meeting, why not address them both and get two people to nod along with you and hopefully help you keep their teammates under control rather than just the "floor captain"? If there are rule changes, you would probably want to address those early in the season, after that they have all heard it already, no need to continue all season...bottom line, keep it short & sweet, they have other business to attend to!
