I bring my 8th grade squad on the road to take on a team with a solid big and a solid guard.

And yes, I passed the background checks and they let me be around young, impressionable minds

How do your guys match up? I imagine you have at least one standout guy.

We're legitimately 8-9 deep. Two solid, solid guards, two good bigs, and a 6'1 kid who is fluid and can move. Needs to get a little more dog in him, but he's still in the colt stage of his growth spurt and is still figuring it all out.

We're gonna press and run the half-court trap and just try to run them out of the gym.

They have a dude who is apparently huge, so we put in the Box and 1 last week in practice.

Had no idea that was possible. Thought only teachers/coaches could actually coach a school team unless it's a private school or something.

Run a zone. Get your two bigs to collapse down on their big, and he's out of the picture. Alternate your two guards guarding their guard. Box and 1. On to the next.

Yep. They only have one competent guard, so we're gonna press and trap the shite out of them and then sit in a 2-3. Saving the box and one until we need it so the other coach won't have much time to diagram against it.

Good luck! Make sure your kids have fun and teach them to love defense.
