Coach Seaman presents three cornerstones that serve as constant reminders for his coaching staff; coverage, development and execution. Coverage includes preparing and drilling for all parts of the game. Fundamentals on offense and defense are essential for planning practice each day early in the season. Stick work, dodging and picks are the offensive elements. Positioning, footwork, checks, sliding and double teams are key defensive skills. Offensive and defensive situations are team oriented game dynamics that must also be part of practices. The coaching staff also monitors specific situations such as facing off, clearing, riding and substitutions. Nine personnel considerations are an additional factor to decide as coaches. Strength and conditioning is a 12-month process and makes players faster, stronger and more successful on the field. Coach Seaman takes to the field with his team to illustrate offensive and defensive drills at game speed. 78 minutes. 2008.
