defensive matchup

[ref3808]

Funny. I did a girls entry-level (4th/5th) travel league game this weekend. At the start of the 2, 3 and final quarter the players all stood opposite each other at the division line and stared. None of them spoke, not a word. None of them pointed, not one finger. I figured the coaches would point something out for them, but no, nothing. I was at the division line opposite and one of the moms asked me what they were doing. "Apparently nothing" I said. She asked if I was going to match them up. "No, not me" I said. Each time, after about 10 seconds I just called for a thrower in and away we went. Go figure.
