Just do an easy pre-game about how you're going to handle things and review the basics. Be calm and reassuring, and whether you have confidence in their ability or not, do not let them know you have doubts. I know of guys who make their newbie partners nervous wrecks before and during the game. Remember, we were all newbies once and people helped us out a lot!
