2013 Contact Confidence Week
Unique to the UMH Compete program, players will spend an entire week (prior to games and practices) learning the art of Contact Confidence.
Five hours dedicated exclusively to contact progressions!
Learn how to use speed, weight transfer, angles, deception and edges to initiate OR avoid contact.
Small bodies and big bodies will play the game differently, but both types of players need to be confident with contact concepts.
We build progressions throughout the week to finish with a controlled scrimmage.
