"The rest of league players (17) are being put to the ToShow list. If you
wish to have your name listed on the NoShow list, please let me know.
Any time the number of players to show drops below ten, the session is to be
cancelled if no helpers from x-Dragons etc. are available. "
In the cancellation policy, "the number of players " should include those veteran Dragon players.
It is quite possible that only 10 out of 17 "to-show-players" are coming.
By the way, how may veteran dragon players are out there ? How many of them can show up normally ?
I think as long as we players be disciplined ( sharp on time ) and two teams are divided even, we will have
a lot of fun. A couple of things I would like to recommend to our practice:
1) Be sharp on time!
2) Divid the team evenly with option 1: mixed of defenders, fowards and midfields
option 2: defense vs offense.
option 3: pick by the two "captains"
3 ) Fault calling: If you see an obvious fall, call "FALL" and the play should stop and resume with indrect kick.
4) Sideline: Need to have side line. This will help us undertand how to fully use the field.
All balls needs to be thrown in. ( God know how many times we had illeagal throwins ).
5) "captain" on each team to decide the play position of each players.
6 ) always bring two sets of jersey ( white and color ).
