Practice Rules
Practice is very important for the development of each player and for the unity of the entire team.  Please make every effort to attend practices – and try to practice at home during the week.  Just a few minutes a day can greatly improve your ball skills -- juggling, dribbling, trapping, and short passing.  Learn to use both feet – spend twice as much time with your weaker foot.  Did you know that good soccer players touch the ball 2000 times a day?  (How many touches can you make in 10 minutes?)

• Be on time for practice and be ready when you arrive – wearing your equipment – so that no field time is wasted.  It is your family’s responsibility to have all of your equipment – shoes (tied), shinguards, water bottle, etc.—with you at the start of practice. 
• If you get to the practice field early, use the time well.  Don’t stand around just shooting penalty shots --- do something more realistic – dribble, pass, then shoot -- always keep the ball moving!
• If you cannot attend practice, please call or email your Coach.
• Dress for the weather – on cool days, wear layers (T-shirt, turtleneck, sweatshirt).  If it rains, check the Weatherline (410) 377-1715 – be prepared to get wet, and muddy.
• Try your best during practice – don’t be afraid to make a mistake when trying to make the right play.
