Part 3 - Unit 21: Defense!
Transcript:
M: Stay low and bend your knees! Come over here.
B: Yes, Coach?
M: Jackson, when you’re playing defense, keep your knees bent and your body low. It helps you keep your balance. And it allows you to move more quickly in every direction.
B: Like this?
M: That’s right. You should attempt to stay on the balls of your feet. It’s like you are getting ready to pounce. Athletes never rest on their heels.
B: Should I stand with my legs close together or far apart?
M: It is best to keep them about shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees and keep your back straight. Spread your arms straight out at your sides.
B: This seems almost like I’m getting ready to attack the ball.
M: It is a little bit like that. Your stance looks much better than before.
B: Coach, how do I move forward and backward on defense? I feel like my stance is fine, but when I try to dart toward my opponent, I keep tripping over my feet.
M: When you move forward, put your right foot in front of you, with your toes pointing in the direction you want to go. When you move backward, just reverse it: follow the direction of your left foot. How are you feeling?
B: My legs are tired and my back aches.
M: Playing defense is hard work. Take a break, then we’ll try it again.
