North Stokes vs Mt Airy

[REWhitley]

I would be interested in hearing various thoughts on the following question:
When one team is absolutely over powering their opponent, how does the coaching staff direct the game plan, protect the players of both teams while not disrespecting the opponent?
I have so much respect for North Stokes, its players, its coaches and community. So how do you coach/direct the game?

After the first qrtr you mix In backups to get playing time with starters. Would love to see Landon get some plays called where he could throw the ball instead of just hanging it off in second half.

Always come away impressed how hard NS plays in this game!

Could always use it to experiment a little with new plays or sets

Injury bug has hit again…

Could very well do that. They ran some against Surry Central that were not in playback last year or in first two games. Some were under center. Again would like to see Landon play with first string offense

First, MA coaching staff must be creative with practice. New drills, looking ahead and work on an opponent without the team realizing it, work on your two minute offense with no huddle/hurry up, have a study hall each day, teach your players how to tie a tie, or shorten practice !
Second, there is so much difference in these two programs, you must be ready to back off immediately and play the JV players.
Third, always respect the North Stokes team!!!!!

Play your subs quick. Keep the playbook simple. Use as much play clock as possible. Tell your ball handlers to stay inbounds.

not exactly sure…just heard a few more

I like the idea of giving Landon some meaningful minutes. Play hard, stay focused, get a comfortable lead then let Group 2s & Group 3s play.

Get the score to 28-35 and then put in the back-ups. Save risk of injury and let that clock roll in the second half.

They are not very strong, take the jv team

Run your normal offense for the 1st quarter.

Backs up for the remainder running base plays only. Build up that muscle memory.
