III. 3 Team Winner Stays (with U13 White)

We mixed with the U13 White team, broke the girls into 3 teams of 8, and played 8v8 for the last 25 minutes.  Whichever team scored, stayed on the field.  The team that got scored upon would go out and rest and the resting team would step on the field to play.

The Blue team girls get an attitude whenever we look to mix together with the White team to play.  I have to find a way to address this as I don't want to be fostering a bunch of prima donnas.  I continually tell the girls that great players make players around them better.  This has sunk in with a number of the girls, but not with all of them.

If the girls tried to use a Fake Pass Slap Turn, or one of the Fake Shot Stutter moves, they did not have to do any extra fitness at the end of training.
